This week’s Top Ten Tuesday, hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl, is the list of books on my fall to-be-read list. I felt really good about my summer TBR list, so I’ve decided to go back to planning my reading a bit more. The first are three books I’ve already started (maybe they don’t really…
This week’s Top Ten Tuesday, hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl, is a “Spring Cleaning Freebie” which seemed like a good opportunity to clean my TBR list a bit. The following are all books I was interested in reading but I haven’t gotten to them yet, and they have the lowest ratings on my TBR…
This week’s host for Nonfiction November is Katie @ Doing Dewey, and it’s about the nonfiction titles we’ve added to our TBR list this month. Below I’m highlighting just a few of the books I hope to read. Here for It; Or How to Save Your Soul in America by R. Eric Thomas is a book…
I’m a big fan of Modern Mrs. Darcy’s podcast, What Should I Read Next? so I signed up to receive her summer reading guide as well (to get the guide, you will need to provide your email). This is a list of summer releases that aims to satisfy a variety of readers. This year’s list is organized thematically,…
I’m so happy it’s finally summer! This year, I’ve been avoiding TBR lists and trying to take some of the pressure off of what and how I read. But I’ll make an exception for the 20 Books of Summer Challenge, hosted by Cathy at 746books.com, because it’s a pretty laid back challenge and summer feels…
Most people, outside of school or work, read what they want, when they want. But book bloggers spend a lot of time thinking about what they’re going to read – at least I do. Given limited reading time, I read for entertainment and for relaxation. But I also read to think and to challenge myself. This…
I’m gearing up for a good home cleaning, as I’m feeling inspired by Marie Kondo and I have some time off in the next couple of weeks. It feels like a good time to clear things out and give things away I’m not using. And it’s also time to think about what I want to…
Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s topic is a “Halloween Freebie” so I decided to write about some of the Halloween reads at the top of my TBR list. What is a Halloween read, anyway? As with most types of books, I have trouble putting anything in neat boxes. For…
Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. There are three months left in the year, and I took September off from reading challenges. Here are ten books to read if I want to beat some of my challenges: For my TBR Pile Challenge: Crooked Letter, Crooked Letter by Tom Franklin Burnt Shadows…
Twenty Books of Summer is back! It will run from June 3 through August, and basically the challenge is to make a list of 20 books and read those books over the next three months. This year I decided at least 10 of the books need to be ones I already own. The reason is that I’ve…
This week’s topic, hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl, is the Top Ten Books I Meant to Read in 2018. There’s a whole lot more than 10, but I’ve already written about backlist books I want to read and challenge books I want to read, so I focused here on the literary releases in 2018…
This year I’m going to avoid signing up for any new challenges, but will continue with the ones I enjoyed most last year. The TBR Pile Challenge, hosted by Roof Beam Reader, asks you to take 12 books, plus two alternates, that have been on your TBR list for over a year. I often find…
