Welcome to the first annual Book Razzies! The Razzies are an annual award show for the worst movies of the year. I’m adopting that model to share my worst books of 2020 with you! I got this idea after seeing several creators, including Gerry of The Book Nook UK, do something similar last year. I [...]

Mid-Year Book Freak Out Tag: 2020 Edition!
So… 2020 is nearly halfway over. It feels like it’s been five years crammed into six months. And it’s not done yet! Of course, being the middle of the year, it’s time once again to do the Mid-Year Book Freak Out Tag. This is my fourth year doing this tag. It’s fascinating to see my [...]
Authors I *Probably* Won’t Read Again
I saw that Angelica of The Book Cover Girl did a post about this recently and thought it was a cool discussion post. We often talk about the authors we love, but what about the ones we’ve given up on? There are several authors I’m pretty sure I’m throwing in the towel on. I don’t [...]

January 2020 Reading Wrap-Up
It’s time for my first book wrap-up of this year! As with 2019, 2020 is going to be a year of quality over quantity. I’m still working on not feeling guilty when I don’t read much, but I’m getting there. The good news is, though I read little in January, most of what I read [...]

Book Meme: WWW Wednesday #1
WWW Wednesday is a meme hosted by Sam of Taking on a World of Words. It’s basically a fun way to update your readers on your current reading. The questions are based on the Three Ws: What are you currently reading? What did you recently finish reading? What do you think you’ll read next? I [...]
The Most Disappointing Music, Books, & Movies of 2018
I’ve been pretty lucky this year to not have been disappointed by too much media. I’ve gotten a lot better at choosing things I know I’m going to enjoy or recognizing tropes I don’t like in plot summaries and avoiding said media. In fact, I’d argue that I’ve had an overall good year for music, [...]

But before we enter spooky season, we have to finish up with summer. First step? Telling my loyal followers all about the books I read this month. I don't know [...]
