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

Hello, everyone!

Hello, everyone! Happy February. 🙂 One month down, eleven more to go! January was a very interesting month for me, because for the first time in many years, I actually had a burst of energy with the new year.

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).

Hello, everyone! I've officially broken my book-buying ban for the first time this year -- and I'm not too mad about it. This fact partially ties into this post because the first book on this list relies on my having lacked a physical copy of it. Which I now have!

Down the TBR Hole #4 | YA Fantasy, Thrillers, & Sally Rooney

Hello, everyone! I hope you're enjoying your winter season (or summer for those in the southern hemisphere). Has it snowed for you? The weather keeps faking me out where I'm at, promising snow and then just winding up cold and rainy.
