we're all mad here
There are very few books that I’ve actually read in one sitting, and only one of those is an actual in one sitting one. Truthfully, I’ve only read a book in a single day, not counting graphic novels, twice, and that’s The Wicker King and Bad Call. The first, I returned to repeatedly over the…

Say what! A tag on a Tuesday! What kind of anarchy is this! Honestly, I just could not fathom writing another discussion post after the downward spiral that was June, and this was supposed to go up on a Wednesday, but then I wanted to do the mid-year freakout tag, and that felt better suited…

Okay, here’s the deal. At the end of May, I talked about why I occasionally do book buying bans and how they’re actually really helpful for me. At the beginning of this year, I threw away my handwritten TBR list that was organized chronologically by when I’d bought something. It was bringing me a lot…

I saw this over at Jessica @ The Awkward Book Blogger, and my sleuthing ended with a now-deleted blog, so I can’t track back to the beginning of who created it. I was originally going to post another writing post, but given that would be my third this week, and I don’t want to inundate…

Wow, I’m tired. And what a month. I managed to read 4/5 TBR books, and I would have gotten the fifth done no problem if it weren’t for the overwhelming nature of getting a new job that actually trusts me enough to give me work to do. SHOCKING, I KNOW. Anyway, I don’t want to…

This month just felt like constant chaos. I was tired more than I was not, and I know a lot of that had to do with NaNoWriMo, but I’m so looking forward to Christmas when I can just take a week off and not do anything. I didn’t get to read as much as I’d…

I know this is hella unorthodox, a top twenty, and I could have easily solved this problem by just dropping all the non-2020 releases, but the way we roll is by doing whatever the hell I want, and I picked twenty covers right off the bat that I absolutely adored out of the books I…
