  • I recently saw a study that said the average American only reads 12 books a year. As a part of the Booklr community, that’s completely absurd. I’m pretty sure that every one of us can read 12 books in a week. My first reaction was to feel disappointment in the fact that Americans don’t appreciate…

  • Not only am I super excited about Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, but this is the first time we see a muggle along for the ride. That means that every emotion and imagination and dream we’ve ever had about the Wizarding World will be encapsulated in this one character. I’m so excited about…

  • Yes! I have illustriously finished reading both A Court of Thorns and Roses and A Court of Mist and Fury and all I can gather are A Court of All the Feels. Ratings: ACOTAR – 5/5 ACOMAF – 1000000/5 I just spent seven hours on my couch reading and finishing ACOMAF last night. Seriously, is there…

  • I love reading in the summer. Well, honestly I love reading all year round (and there’s a plethora of reasons to read all year round). I think it’s the fun of being outside in the park or going to the beach with your book and enjoying the great outdoors. As an indoor kid, a good…

  • If we’re going to kiss, it has to be book-worthy. Ok, so maybe I was a little bit hasty to write about my first impressions on romance novels before reading this book. Rating: 4.5/5 Plot Summary – Fallon and Ben meet each other on the anniversary of an accident leaving Fallon scarred on the left side…

  • There was a period in my life when I wanted to be a publishing editor. It was in college and I was testing out the different ways that I can somehow be a part of the publishing world. I took an internship at a huge publishing house in their Romance/SciFi imprint. I’m not quite sure…

  • A gambler, a convict, a wayward son, a lost Grisha, a Suli girl who had become a killer, a boy from the Barrel who had become something worse. I have so many feelings about this book that I can’t even. Rating – 5/5 (NO DOUBTS ABOUT IT) Plot Summary – If you took The Breakfast…

  • I don’t know about you, but I’m a sucker for stalking. Yes, stalking. However, you won’t find me trailing my ex-boyfriend or ex-bestie to see what their lives are like without me in it. Instead, I like to stalk my favorite authors. Ok, so maybe “stalking” isn’t the right term for it. But what is…

  • Back in June, I told myself that this would be my last book haul in a little while. Finances have been rough the past few weeks so buying more books felt like an extravagance that I can do without. I honestly think I might have a problem. I sometimes feel like I’m “deprived” from living…

  • Timing was everything—that was more and more obvious the older you got, when you finally understood that the universe wasn’t held together in any way that made sense. There was no order, there was no plan. It was all about what you’d had for breakfast, and what kind of mood you were in when you…
