With the Goodreads Choice Awards winners due to be announced in a few days, I thought it would be a good time to share what I voted for and what I’ve still got waiting on my TBR. I want to preface this by saying I don’t vote for books I haven’t read. So if there … More My Goodreads Choice Awards Votes 2023 + What’s Still On My TBR
Reading Wrap Up This month I read 14 books, three of which were rereads but I had no DNFs this month. I’d hoped to read 15 or 16 this month but I was pretty busy with other hobbies during the month, so 14 isn’t terrible. My reading plans also changed around a bit because of … More November Wrap-Up: Reading, NaNoWriMo + More
Junior Eurovisionathon is over! *cue loud crying* This readathon has been going for the last two weeks and I shared my reviews from the first week here, so now I’m here to share the second half. In total, I ended up reading six books—three per week. I had loftier ambitions but I’m glad I ended … More Last Week of Junior Eurovisionathon Reviews + Wrap Up
Well, it’s almost the end of 2023 and with that comes the mad dash to try and finish all those things I said I would earlier in the year. And oh boy, there’s a lot of them. I’m keeping this December TBR kind of short since my next seasonal TBR for Top Ten Tuesday will … More December TBR
Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish and is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. Today’s topic is ‘why I’m thankful for books’ for Thanksgiving. Even though we don’t celebrate Thanksgiving here in Australia, I’d decided I talk about specific books I read this year and that I’m thankful for. This isn’t my favourite … More Books I’m Most Thankful For In 2023 | Top Ten Tuesday
Today I’m here to wrap-up my progress for the first week/first half of Junior Eurovisionathon. This is kind of a long post so I’m just going to jump in and share my updates and my reviews for this week. Let’s go. Updates I thought I had a plan going into this round but it very … More First Week of Junior Eurovisionathon: Reviews + Updates
As you can tell from the title, today is all about small-town romances. I’ve read a few in the past, maybe 4 or 5, but it’s not a trope I reach for often. I wanted to give it a good shot and see if it might be something I enjoy and here we are. So … More Discovering Small-Town Romance Books
Since we’re halfway through the month, I thought now would be a good time to check in and chat about how I’m doing with NaNoWriMo this month. Full disclosure, I wrote this on the 13th after I’d already done my words for the day so I could focus on my writing and other life things … More NaNoWriMo Midpoint Check In
Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish and is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. Today’s topic was meant to be popular authors I haven’t tried before, but I couldn’t really think of anyone in the genres I do read. I could’ve made a whole post just listing horror authors I haven’t read but … More Authors I Don’t Read Anymore | Top Ten Tuesday
As per usual I’m running behind with my mini reviews. These are from mid to late October and then into November so at least we’re not too far behind yet. But today we have some middle-grade, some non fiction and some others so let’s jump straight in. Gargantis (The Legends of Eerie-on-Sea #2) by Thomas … More Five Most Recent Reads | November 12th
