Second third reviews: 4+ stars

Happy Friday! Today is the second instalment of my thirdly reviews, where I'll be giving mini reviews of all the books I read in the last four months! Last week, I did all the books I rated 3 and 3.5 stars, and today are all the 4, 4.5 and 5 stars! Gender Queer by Maia …

First third reviews

Happy Monday, friends! The past couple of years, I've been doing round-ups of my reviews every four months as a way to ensure I'm reviewing every book I read. The reviews are usually fairly short (or they get their own post), but it's still a way for me to get my thoughts out. So, here …

Books described with clickbait titles

Hello, friends, happy Friday! Today's blog post is inspired by Bertie @ Luminosity Library, so please go check out their post because it is way funnier than mine.

Recommending some standalones

Hello, friends and book lovers! It has been a while since I did a good, old fashioned book recommendations post, so that's what we're doing today.

Books I rated 4.5 stars, but rounded to 4

Hello, everyone, happy Monday! Today, I have a bit of a cheeky post that probably won't make a ton of sense if you're not on book twitter (sorry about that). I don't want to rehash everything here because I've already spent a lot of time dunking on the author. Instead, I thought I could do …

Discussion: the groundhog day trope

Hello everyone, happy Friday! Today I'm doing kind of a discussion post. I noticed recently that I really enjoy the Groundhog Day trope, or timeloop trope, where a character or characters experience the same day/week/month/time period several times. I don't know what it is about this trope or these books, but I always really enjoy …

Recommendations for… books you should listen to as audiobooks

Hi friends, I hope you had a great weekend! Today, I'm going to talk about some books I think you should listen to as an audiobook. I personally love listening to non-fiction audiobooks, so most of these books are non-fiction (I think all of them, actually). And they're all books that I think are particularly …

So today I'm going to be talking about some standalones! …
