So, I’m cheating a little this week. I mean, not really. This is a review of a book I have read recently, so I guess it meets the criteria. But it’s not a book that I read FOR the project. It is, rather, an #arc that I got from Hidden Gems…but I was out of… Continue reading Week Thirteen—Twisted Wrister by G.K. Brady
TTT: Ten Longest Books I’ve Read

Let’s Talk Bookish: Series vs Standalones
This week’s topic comes to us from M.T. Wilson @ Last Book on the Left) who asks— Do you prefer standalones or series? When you read a standalone, do you wish there was more, or are you content that the story has finished? Are series sometimes too long? Do you feel like some genres work… Continue reading Let’s Talk Bookish: Series vs Standalones
Sunday Post—10/03/2021
Writing this from Deep Creek Lake, where I have spent one long weekend a year for the past eight years…and in PA with the same crew for 8 years previous. So, the same basic folks every year since 2005. We all cook, and drink and play board games and hang out in the hot tub… Continue reading Sunday Post—10/03/2021
Library Reads: September 2021
This was a much more productive month than August, book-wise. I read a total of 20 this month, bringing my total for 2021 to 120. Pretty sure that this is a personal best for me as an adult—as a kid, I was good for 300 a year, but those were largely middle grade or young… Continue reading Library Reads: September 2021

Book Blogger Hop—Traditional vs Indie Publishing
This week’s question comes to us from Julie @ JadeSky who asks— Are you more willing to read traditionally published books than self-published (indie) books? Or do you not have a preference? This would have been a much, much easier question to answer ten years ago. I remember when all of the indie authors I… Continue reading Book Blogger Hop—Traditional vs Indie Publishing
Week Twelve: Well Met
I had so many plans for this week, y’all. I was going to review the Graham Moore book The Holdout, but then I got approved for an arc and they want that review October 1, so I had to put Graham on the back burner for a minute. And then LIFE interfered as well, and… Continue reading Week Twelve: Well Met
TTT: Favorite Book Quotes
This is a free week, so I perused the TTT archives, and chose this one, cause I’m a sucker for book quotes. One of these I kind of want to get tattooed on my arm, actually. “Miriam came to consider Eliza a gosling born into a family of ducks, loved and accepted, but always and… Continue reading TTT: Favorite Book Quotes
Let’s Talk Bookish—Listening vs Reading
It’s a free week, so I dove into the LTB wayback machine for this topic from the before-times, or January 2020. We were all so innocent then. Anyway, this topic comes to us from Aria @ Book Nook Bits who asks: Do you consider listening to audio-books as reading? How do you feel about audio-books?… Continue reading Let’s Talk Bookish—Listening vs Reading
