... and this is it, another Dewey's readathon is in the books, literally. I hope you guys had as much fun as I did. I had a really productive 24 hours of reading and ended up with a personal best in page numbers. I'll be writing up, as usual, my more formal wrap-up some other… Continue reading Hour 24 – and we are done
Hour 1 – let’s begin
Good morning readathoners, We are in the first hour of our 24 hr readathon and I'm still a bit sluggish. I decided to start today with an audiobook (a first for me!). I've been wanting to read George during banned book week but didn't get around to it. It has only been 20 minutes but… Continue reading Hour 1 – let’s begin
Another October, another Dewey’s readathon
What is it? Dewey's readathon is a worldwide 24 hour reading event. The point is to make time for reading that day and read more than you usually do. It is for everyone and there are no rules other than that we all start at the same time. Lots of us keep track of how… Continue reading Another October, another Dewey’s readathon
And thus concludes my September
Hi there, We are basically still in the first week of October ;), so I am not super late on my September wrap-up. I had a nice September full of fall decorations, late summer weather but cool fall nights, soup, and some favorite movies. I read 5 books, which is a lot less than I… Continue reading And thus concludes my September
And thus concludes my August
Hi there, I had a pretty tumultuous ending to August and beginning of September, which is why I am late with my monthly wrap-up and also weren't able to complete my goals for #WITMonth. I had great momentum from the #reversereadathon but then lost steam because of, ... well, .... life. I had some family… Continue reading And thus concludes my August
ARC – Little Deadly Secrets by Pamela Crane
Thriller | 384 pages | 08.18.2020 | William Morrow Paperbacks 1 STAR Ugh, I can't even begin to say how many things were wrong with this book. First of all, it was a sad attempt int replicating the format that worked for Big Little Lies. The several POVs really added nothing to the story. Secondly,… Continue reading ARC – Little Deadly Secrets by Pamela Crane

Award Nomination – The Liebster Award
Hi lovelies, Donna at Mom's Book Collection tagged me in this award and I can't believe she thought of my little blog. I am loving this award even more given that the title has its origins in German. The creativity of this reward is unreal! It has grown substantially since its inception where an awardee… Continue reading Award Nomination – The Liebster Award
Top Ten Tuesday – books that should be picked up by Netflix
It’s TTT time! As usual, if you’re curious about this, Jana over at That Artsy Reader Girl hosts these weekly challenges (so, see her blog for more info). I am really pumped about today's prompt: books which should be adapted into Netflix shows or movies. The very obvious choice here for me would, of course, be horror books. Don't… Continue reading Top Ten Tuesday – books that should be picked up by Netflix
