Springtime Books, Films, & Music – Renewal, Whimsy, and Flourish

Hello, everyone! I'm wishing you all the happiest spring. ❤ It hasn't been my favorite since I was a little kid, but I was enjoying the winter so minimally, that I'm elated to see the burgeoning blooms and suggestions of warmer air. Right now, the weather here has swung back into the seasonal gloomy rain,… Continue reading Springtime Books, Films, & Music – Renewal, Whimsy, and Flourish

Down the TBR Hole #7 | Lots of Horror, A Few Thrillers, & Some Mixed Feelings

Hello, everyone! I have to admit I was at a little bit of a loss for what to post this week as all of my book-related time has been going towards inching along in the books I've been currently reading for weeks. However, cleansing my Goodreads "to-read" shelf is always a good idea especially considering… Continue reading Down the TBR Hole #7 | Lots of Horror, A Few Thrillers, & Some Mixed Feelings

Top 10 Books on My Spring 2024 TBR | TTT

Hello, everyone! Happy spring! Winter isn't my least favorite season but it was definitely not jiving with me this year around -- way too cold, way too long, way too not my speed. I'm looking forward to longer and warmer days, and I'm hoping that my productivity will be boosted because of it. What are… Continue reading Top 10 Books on My Spring 2024 TBR | TTT

All the Books I’ve Bought Since the New Year | Book Haul

Hello, everyone! How's everyone's March going? So, I pretty much always consider myself on a "book-buying ban". In a way, I guess this could be good as it seems like I'd be fairly strict and/or principled about the whole thing. Instead, it makes my slip-ups all the more normalized. And, honestly, I'm not really complaining!… Continue reading All the Books I’ve Bought Since the New Year | Book Haul

Down the TBR Hole #6 | Sad YA, Speculative Inclinations, and Trying New Things

Hello, everyone! How's your week going? I'm feeling a lot better in terms of my reading as I just started Skyla Arndt's Together We Rot (a book I've been talking about starting for months now) and I'm finding it such a engaging read. Which is a real relief because I was beginning to wonder if… Continue reading Down the TBR Hole #6 | Sad YA, Speculative Inclinations, and Trying New Things

Top 10 Nature-Themed Book Covers & Titles | TTT

Hello, everyone! In an attempt to maximize my efficiency in terms of this blog and in my life otherwise, I've recently taken to planning and scheduling my posts ahead of time. In doing so, I noticed that several of the upcoming Top Ten Tuesday prompts are nature-related (flowers-related, rain-related, etc.). Because of that, I was… Continue reading Top 10 Nature-Themed Book Covers & Titles | TTT

Down the TBR Hole #5 | Entering Giveaways, Taking Recommendations, and Diverse Voices

Hello, everyone! How's everyone's February going thus far? What have you been reading? I was going to do a mid-month check-in this week but I've only finished reading one book this month (Greywaren by Maggie Stiefvater) and have only been watching a show or two, so I didn't think it'd be much of a post.… Continue reading Down the TBR Hole #5 | Entering Giveaways, Taking Recommendations, and Diverse Voices

Every Romance (or Romance-Adjacent) Book I’ve Read | TTT

Hello, everyone! I wasn't planning on doing a Top Ten Tuesday post this week as the prompt was a "Love Freebie", and I wasn't sure where to go with that because I'm not a big romance reader. I was going to go for a "Top 10 Platonic, Familial, and Romantic Relationships in Books" type of… Continue reading Every Romance (or Romance-Adjacent) Book I’ve Read | TTT

Top 10 Quick Reads/Books to Read When Time is Short | TTT

Hello, everyone! How's everyone's reading going? I'm doing my best to get it in during my tiny pockets of free time -- I've been mostly reading Greywaren (Dreamer Trilogy, #3) by Maggie Stiefvater, and I've been reminded how wholly I love her work. It's really helped reignite my reading for the year! I made a… Continue reading Top 10 Quick Reads/Books to Read When Time is Short | TTT

Top 10 New-to-Me Authors I Discovered in 2023 | TTT

Hello, everyone! The snow that I was so excited about a few weeks ago has gone and left a miserable chill in its wake (we did, though, have a surprisingly warm pocket which was much appreciated). January always feels like such a long month but I can't believe we're already a month into the year… Continue reading Top 10 New-to-Me Authors I Discovered in 2023 | TTT
