Apologies for the rare double post, but I have to acknowledge Banned Book Week. Banned Book Week, which started yesterday, celebrates the freedom to read whatever you choose, and have access to all writings despite popularity, perceived vulgarity, or ideology of a given place. It is incredibly important that books are freely accessible despite how … Continue reading Banned Books Week
Happy Friday, all! What a good day to clean up your TBR. I managed to remove 6 out of 10 books during my last TBR cleanup, which was a feat and a half. This week, I am feeling slightly less ambitious. A while ago, I discovered this meme, Down the TBR hole, from Confessions of … Continue reading Down the TBR Hole #11

Ah,another day, another cozy mystery set in Scotland. Hooked on Ewe is the sequel to Off Kilter, the first book by Hannah Reed set in the Scottish Highlands. I wasn't in love with it, but they are fun reads and the Scottish setting has given me the happy autumn shivers. It is also funny, because … Continue reading Book Review: “Hooked on Ewe,” by Hannah Reed
Monday, Monday, so good to me. I woke up early, drank a cup of coffee, and basked in the frigid pre-autumn air. This is witchy season, and I am here for it. A couple of months ago, I started this weekly book challenge hosted by E. @ Local Bee Hunter’s Nook called #5OnMyTBR, and I really enjoyed … Continue reading #5OnMyTBR – Classics

A while … Continue reading Down the TBR Hole #10

Good morning and happy Tuesday! I am calling this "fake Monday" because Labor Day and all, and I refuse to labor on said Monday. Thus, my TBR is a day late. However, since Autumn is by far my favorite month (I am a November baby), I couldn't not do this one. A couple of months … Continue reading #5OnMyTBR – Autumn Reads
Happy Thursday! I am going to start this review off by saying, I have a major bias/blinders when it comes to Ilona Andrews. I have been reading their (husband/wife duo) books for years, and as far as urban fantasy goes, they are in the top three. The Kate Daniels series is one of my all … Continue reading Book Review: “Emerald Blaze,” by Ilona Andrews
