  • 2022: A (Reading) Summary

    Happy New Year? I know I’m very late. I have no excuse, but just go wtih it. I haven’t done a December (or November) wrap-up either, and I wanted to post something to kinda separate the 2022 and 2023 reviews. I’ll do a three-month reading wrap-up at the end of January. For this post, I’m…

  • Least Favourite Reads of 2021

    So, least favourites list… The last time I did this, it was for 2017. These past few years, I just haven’t wanted to make one. But this year, I had a couple of books that I really wanted to mention. But I couldn’t just make a list of two, so here we are. I thought…

  • My Favourite Reads of 2021

    Another year has come to an end, and it went by really fast. It wasn’t the best year for me in terms of how much reading I did. And, in other ways, it was both great and awful. For the first time in over two decades, I’m not a student, which is awesome but also…

  • New Releases: August, 2018 + TBR

    Sorry about not doing a New Releases post last month. It’s not that there weren’t any great releases in July, only that there weren’t enough that I was really interested in. With the exception of That Irresistible Poison by Alessandra Hazard, An Unwanted Guest by Shari Lapena, and Risk Taker by Lily Morton. This month as well, I…

  • Top 3 Thursday: Books That Made Me Cry

    This is going to be a fun little post. I’m not a huge crier. Sure, it’s not uncommon for me to shed a tear or two, but actual crying? Not that frequent. But there are still a few books that have made me legit sob. For the list today, I’ve picked two of my recent…

  • Top 3 Thursday: Coming of Age Books I Loved

    I’ve missed the last few Top 3 Thursday posts. One week, I was out-of-town; afterwards, it just kept slipping my mind. I’ll try to be more consistent, even when I don’t have the best answers. That’s the case now, by the way. It’s not that I haven’t read any coming-of-age novels, or that I didn’t like any.…

  • My Worst 10 Reads of 2017

    My Worst 10 Reads of 2017

    Almost decided to forgo this list. I love the Top 10 lists but with this one, I feel like it doesn’t have much of a purpose. Though I did enjoy reading all my negative reviews. They’re fun. And I already had the names narrowed down so why not? No dishonourable mentions. Just jumping in.  …

  • My Top 10 Reads of 2017

    My Top 10 Reads of 2017

    I did it! And I survived doing to too! And by “it”, I mean making an ordered list of my favourite reads of last year. It was so hard. I don’t remember it being this difficult the last time. I actually had to hold a little tournament, well multiple tournaments. Each subsequent novel was one step…

  • 10 Books I Want to Read in 2018

    Happy 2018! And I hope you have a happy 2018. I’m aware that most people are doing lists for the most anticipated books of the year, but I wasn’t really feeling that one. Making that list just makes the wait that much more difficult and the disappointment that much heavier if the book turns out to…

  • My Top 10 Read of 2016

    My Top 10 Read of 2016

    First of all… Happy New Year! I know I’m a tad late but I started the year off with extreme laziness and a cold. Not a good combination at all. But I’m determined to turn things around because my new year’s resolution is to stick to the schedules I make by not being lazy. And…
