OWL Magical Readathon 2020

Last year I did the OWL Magical Readathon. I completely failed the NEWTs to the point I didn’t even post about them and was in a weird slump after and for the longest time past that. But we’re social distancing and my work isn’t open again until at least the 19th. So I decided to […]

#Blogmas: Books I want to read this Christmas

I was in the middle of a ton of books when I wrote the actual TBR and I managed to not finish all of them. (Shocking, I know). Well, December I’m hoping to lump them together and actually accomplish it.

Dream October TBR

I know it was an ambitious TBR but I keep adding to it each year when I inevitably don’t get to them all. And to be fair: it wasn’t and isn’t going to happen so may as well dream big right?

June TBR: The smallest, yet largest TBR of the year

June. I’m preparing to read outside a lot. And I can’t wait. I’m planning on doing a 24 hour readathon with some of the books still on my TBR from elementary/ middle school on the first so that’s not going to be on this list. (Mainly because there’s a pile of like 15 books). I […]

Bout of Books and May TBR

I’m so excited another #BoutOfBooks is happening! It feels as though the last one just happened.

OWL Readathon- April 2019

I’ve decided to do the Curse Breaker track which means for the OWLs I need to read from certain categories. Some of these I have other books I may read instead because I’m a major mood reader but these are what I’m currently leaning toward. I also decided to make a TBR for the other prompts as well.

March TBR pile

I’m actually trying so hard to keep my TBRs down because I am a major mood reader and am in the middle of a giant classic. Plus I have so many other things I need to do in life.

February TBR

However, I decided to do a shorter TBR in February for that reason along with the fact I’m reading some big books I want to make massive progress on.

Bout of Books and January TBR

I basically never do TBRs because I never actually follow them. I’m way to much of a mood reader. However, I do want to try doing smaller TBRs with just a couple books to see if that is more manageable. This month has a huge TBR though so….. we’ll see how it works and maybe change it up for February.

Keeping my book buying to a minimum 2019

The last couple years my book acquisitions has gotten so out of control. My parents used to tease me that my floor is going to fall from the weight of all my books and that may actually happen. I have done a couple unhauls so it probably isn’t as bad as I think it is […]

Five Star Predictions

I have seen so many people do posts like this and eventually I started thinking about it. I know I’ve done one about some authors I know I’ll love but I haven’t done specific books.

Reg (Bookish In Bed) chooses my TBR

Anyway, I think everyone’s seen these types of posts by now where you have another person pick your books for the upcoming month and Reg says “YOU HAVE TO READ THIS” about five times a week so I gave her a couple parameters.

Buddy reads we didn’t get to

We read a TON of books that weren’t on the original list PLUS we only have four left on our original list..

Countries to revisit via books

Every once in a while I get really reminiscent of my semester abroad, where I could leave the city and two hours later be in another country. I kind of want to read more books from different countries, either author or setting. I decided what better place to start than the countries I’ve been to.

2018 TBR Check-in

I want to finish off the year strong and finish what I have left but realistically that won’t happen.

Bloggers Recommend: The Nightmare Corner

Early on I knew I wanted to do this specific post. And I am so glad some of my blogger friends participated and didn’t let it fall flat on it’s face! Throughout the year I’m going to be asking for book recommendations of different genres from bloggers over on Twitter. They get emailed or DM’d […]

Top Three Authors I Know I Would Like

I’ve gotten to a lot of authors I’ve wanted to but I still have a lot I think I would like. I keep putting them off for the stupidest reasons including the fear I won’t like them. I own all of these authors. I know they’re similar to what I enjoy and I’m quite positive […]

The Book Ban(ish)

I’m pretty sure most people know this by now, but I have eight bookshelves. Mainly full. They would all be full but one of them I use for books I own that I’ve read in the current year. This bookcase so far has six books, plus two others that people are borrowing, and one I’m […]

Books I’m Waiting for Jan-June

Over the summer I made a list of books I couldn’t wait for during the second half of 2016. There is only one on that list I haven’t made it to yet. However, I am looking forward to quite a few during the first half of 2017.

#40books10weeks

I’ve recently met my Goodreads goal of 60 books. With exactly 10 weeks left in the year. And so I decided to try to get to 100 books, just to say I did. This amounts to 4 books a week. This is about the speed I read for a readathon, which isn’t exactly manageable (for […]

Spooky Reads: TBR

My dashboard of WordPress and Bloglovin’ are filled with spooky book recommendations. That was going to be my post for today, but then I decided to do something slightly different. I decided to share the list of spooky reads I want to get to this year.

Summer TBR update

In the beginning of Summer I posted a list of books I wanted to read before September 1st. I did not get through the list. I was in a massive reading slump for pretty much all of June and July, but then in August I read a ton of books. Unfortunately, not enough to finish […]

#TackleTBR Readathon

This summer I’ve become addicted to readathons and since I have such a long TBR pile for September I decided joining in another readathon was a good way to get through it. This readathon is hosted by Wishful Endings and runs from Sept. 12 through Sept. 26. Nice and long! I’m super excited for it […]

What time is it? Summertime!

Technically it’s been my summer for a couple weeks already, but I didn’t even think about doing a summer reading list until I saw Dani’s post. Since I’m not going by semesters anymore, which is beyond weird, my goal is to have this list read by September 1st. Without further ado:

Books I’m eagerly awaiting

For every reader there are books they can’t wait for, books they eagerly count down the days until the release date. Sometimes they are preordered, sometimes they are ARC copies they can’t wait to share with the world and sometimes they’re favorite authors.

Discussion: Removing Books

Lately I’ve been adding books upon books to my list of books to read, while adding these I have found there are books on that list that no longer interest me. I get into moods of what I want to read and then other books do not sound interesting to me. When this happens I […]

Top 10 Summer TBR

Quite some time ago I found this weekly loveliness from The Broke and the Bookish. Every week they have a list of top ten something. It is generally book related and I found I like doing these. While I don’t do them every week, this one I thought should be done by me. My list […]

Top 10 Tuesdays- 10 books on your TBR pile

Top 10 Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish in which you make a list of ten to do with a certain topic. This week’s is top 10 books that have recently been added to your to read pile. More than that have been added in the past couple weeks. […]
