These lists seem to come out earlier every year, but I guess that way people can add them to their wish lists and give them as gifts. And this year is a better time than ever to 1) support your local bookstore and 2) hunker down and read. You can find the New York Times…
This week’s Top Ten Tuesday, hosted by The Broke and the Bookish, is what’s on your Fall To Be Read List? On my list goes one classic, a few next-in-series, and a bunch of fall releases I’m excited about. I’m also including some of the children’s classics I’ll be reading in the next few months…
For me, traveling requires a lot of preparation: closet-cleaning, shopping, list-making, and of course, stocking up on books to read. I often think about what makes a good travel read. For me, there’s no one definition of a good travel read. Some like to read about the place they’re going to, some prefer really light…
Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. Today’s topic is top ten new releases coming up this year. Here are some of the releases I’m looking forward to. I didn’t include League of Dragons by Naomi Novik, which releases today. Traumphysick by Monica Byrne (June 29) — The Girl in the…
This summer, I have a lot of travel planned, which means long flights and a lot of reading time. I want to make the most of my reading but still keep it fun. 746 Books is hosting a challenge called 20 Books of Summer. I’m pretty sure I can read 20 books over three months…

Happy Thanksgiving! It’s gift-giving season, so I’m thinking about the books I want to put on my wish list. In November I saw a number of best of 2015 lists, and I’ve only read a few of the books on these lists. So I’m curious which of these books, if you read them, were worth…
It seems like all of my favorite authors are coming out with something new this fall. I have review copies of the new books by Atwood, Mitchell, and Allende from NetGalley, so I’ve got lots of reading to do! Plus we get a final Tiffany Aching book from Terry Pratchett, and new series from Deanna…
This week’s Top Ten List from The Broke and the Bookish is the top ten books on my fall TBR (To Be Read) List.
