I am monumentally poor at sticking to a real TBR each month. I’ll admit it! I always set one, and then end up frolicking off to some other book that catches my eye, or doing a reread because it’s something that I feel like at the moment. Since I know that about myself, I’ve stopped making monthly TBRs. Instead, I’ve decided to pinpoint three books that I’d like to tackle each quarter of the year, and just fit them in when I can! So here’s the first three that I’ve decided to start with. First off is this delightful novel…

It’s been quite a while since I’ve actually set blog goals, mainly because I went through a phase where setting any kind of goal just sounded too stressful. Between going back to school, the ongoing pandemic, and working hard to understand my anxiety, I’ve been at max for work done. Still, I do miss setting at least a few intentions for the new year. It gives me something to focus on, and reminds me that this is my space! It can look like, and be, whatever I want it to be. So let’s set some goals, shall we? Goal #1…

Hi friends! Happy Thursday, aka the day we all wish would hurry by so that we can get straight to Friday. I hope that this week has treated you well. There are so few sleeps until Christmas, and I know that a lot of you out there are just excited to get to the celebrating as I am! While I wait though, I’ve been revisiting this last year. Combing through the blog, to get an idea of what I want to tackle in 2022. Setting up a reading list of possibilities for some reading challenges that I’m eyeing. It’s been…

Inevitably, every year I get to the last month and realize that there were so many books on my radar that I just never got to. It’s a fact! I mean, so many amazing stories come out month after month. I’d need to be immortal to give them all of the love they deserve. However, there are always a few books that I was SO EXCITED for and then things got busy or I had too many review books to read, and they just vanished into the ether. This is a post to honor the top 5 of these books.…

It’s the beginning of December, and that means it’s wrap up month! You can expect to see various posts this month talking about this last year on the blog, and what we hope to see coming up in the new year! To say that 2021 was a weird year would be an understatement. It was almost worse than 2020, mainly because I kept having so many feelings about whether things would get better or not. I sent the bar low on my reading goal, because I knew (from a whole year of experience) that my attention span wouldn’t be great.…

I actually wasn’t going to do one of these posts, because I was in a funk and feeling like it was too much work. Then, I started The Kiss Quotient. and then I finished it, and now my heart is so light. You won’t be surprised to find that book on this list now, will you? Plus, I may have cheated a little bit because I’m doing this by month. So you’ll get my top book from each of the 12 months of 2018. And away we go!
