Let's Discuss our Book Buying Process

Discover A Reader’s Book Buying Process

This month’s discussion dives deep into the highly scientific and not-at-all impulsive book buying process for building the personal library of my dreams. I know I’m not the only book lover who’s dreamed about having their own Beauty and the Beast library. I know my formative years were spent watching my VHS copy until it broke and no matter how old I get, I can’t get floor-to-ceiling bookshelves with a sliding ladder out of my mind.

2021 Mid Year Check In

Mid-Year Check In for 2021

The good thing about the midway point of the year is that it is like a mini New Years and a bit of a fresh slate to start anew. So checking in on progress is important to me as I reevaluate my goals and reading habits. And honestly? How the heck is it almost July?

How is 2021 almost halfway over? 2020 was such a trashfire of a year that I didn’t get around to this tag but it’s back now. ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ But let’s reflect on the first six months of 2021.

ARC Review: That Weekend by Kara Thomas

That Weekend by Kara Thomas is an expertly plotted and gripping thriller that will take you on twists and turns you’ll never see coming. Honestly, this is one of the best books I’ve ever read and I can’t wait for you all to read it!
