In an attempt to be completely prepared for King of Scars, I reread all the Grisha trilogy books. It’s a good thing I did because almost all of the characters are from this book and I’m pretty sure the ending wouldn’t make any sense if you don’t remember what happened. So even before I begin…

If you’re a bookworm, then you’re probably the type of person who packs a few books with you on vacation. And not just one or two, but you need to pack fifteen books like you’re choosing your monthly TBR. Don’t worry, you’re not alone on this. I also pack way too many books before going…

Happy Monday! I decided Monday was a good day to launch into a mid-month checkin. I’ve been in this state currently where I’m so content just reading. I want to pick up book after book after book without the wait of analyzing and criticizing what I just read. I have notes in my notebook, but…

Recently, I decided to reread The Grisha Trilogy in order to prepare myself for King of Scars.

It’s been a long time…

Happy #MiddleEarthMarch! Well, I wish I was reading The Lord of the Rings this month, but I have too many books to read. I think Middle Earth will have to hold until April for me. However, it doesn’t mean I’m not excited about the new trailer for Tolkien. You can watch the teaser trailer above.…

I want to check out a new city, skateboard on their boardwalk, spend some time baking in the sun, watch my husband surf, and visit bookstores The big bookstore…

Last month, I ran a poll on my Instagram on what should be the Backlist Book Club February pick. It was between The Underground Railroad and Behold the Dreamers. The majority picked The Underground Railroad. I’m so thrilled that they picked that book because it was amazing and really pulled my February together for me.…

Over Galentine’s Day, I was given the opportunity to go see Five Feet Apart a month before it releases everywhere. My friend, Kari, and I decided to get some dinner beforehand and then head into the movie. When we checked in and got there, they gave us free popcorn, free soda, and a swag bag…

After looking over all the books I received this week, I felt like it was time for a little book haul blog post! I think it was just a coincidence that I received so many books at once. It’s probably because of all the rain we’ve been having here that my mail is delayed. It’s…
