I happened across this book by accident. Popsugar told me to find a book with "pop," "sugar," or "challenge" in the title. I was sure that searching Goodreads with "pop" was going to get my children's books (not my jam), so I started with "sugar." This booked popped up. I liked the cover. It made … Continue reading Sugar Run – 4/5
Happy February! One thing I've started doing this year (and ended up really enjoying) is really breaking down my reading habits and looking at some stats. What am I liking? What types of books am I reading? This not only makes me aware of what I like to read and what I don't (life is … Continue reading January Reading Summary
Confession: this book is my library's book club's selection for February. My current small group meets during book club, so for February and March, the plan was to quietly read along with the group and just not attend the meetings. Except I'm reading more than I anticipated and I read next month's book like three … Continue reading Behold the Dreamers – 5/5
Soooo....the weekend did not go as planned. I was hoping to read at least 18 hours and didn't make it that far, which is always a little bit disappointing. However, the weekend was still a lot of fun and it was great to be really intentional about prioritizing my reading. My ambitious stack of reads! … Continue reading 24in48 Wrap Up
Hey guys! I'm giving you a break from the onslaught of reviews (January has been a great reading month for me!), and sharing my weekend plans with you! This weekend, January 26-27, is the first 24in48 readathon of 2019! Wait, you say. What's a readathon? What is this 24in48 business and why aren't you using … Continue reading Weekend Plans: 24in48 Readathon
The Time Traveler's Wife has to be one of the most popular books out there. That's why I used it for the Popsugar prompt "A book with at least one million ratings on Goodreads"—it has 1.4 million. The average rating is 3.96/5, which is pretty good for Goodreads. Normally, super popular books scare me a bit. I always … Continue reading The Time Traveler’s Wife – 3/5
Note: This is categorized as a Netgalley Review. I received a free ecopy of this book from Netgalley and Simon & Schuster in exchange for a fair and unbiased review. I'm beginning to think that Jessica Knoll just might not be the author for me. Her first book, Luckiest Girl Alive (published in 2015), did really well. A lot of people really enjoyed it and found it innovative in the way it addressed the lasting effects of sexual assault and the difficulties of being an … Continue reading The Favorite Sister – 2/5
Note: This is categorized as a Netgalley Review. I received an e-copy of this book from Netgalley and St. Martin's Press in exchange for a fair and unbiased review. I've been really excited about this book for awhile and had to force myself to wait until 2019 to read it, since it satisfied two reading prompts—Popsugar's "A book by two female authors," and LitsyAtoZ for the letter A. I had … Continue reading An Anonymous Girl – 3/5
I like books about books—see my deep, abiding love for The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society. Books are one of the things I love best in the world, so naturally, I love to read other people talking about how much they love them too. It's like sitting with a good friend, and chatting about what you've been reading, what you liked, … Continue reading I’d Rather Be Reading – 4/5
Note: This is categorized as a Netgalley Review. I received an e-copy of this book from Netgalley and Minotaur Books in exchange for a fair and unbiased review. When I saw the Popsugar reading challenge prompt for "A book with an item of clothing or accessory on the cover," I didn't even have to dig around to find a book that would fit the prompt. I've had this e-copy of The Other Woman by Sandie Jones for awhile now. My Netgalley backlist … Continue reading The Other Woman – 4/5
