Category: Top Ten Tuesday

It’s hard for me to answer this prompt, because I almost never officially DNF a book. Let me explain. As anyone who knows me is aware, I’m very easily distracted. It’s very common for me to be reading three or four books at the same time, and I’m constantly finding new ones I want to READ MORE

As usual, I’ll remind everyone reading this that I cannot, to save my life, ever stick to a TBR. The very act of making a TBR virtually guarantees that I’m highly unlikely to read a single one of them. Nonetheless, I feel obligated to at least attempt to join in a few times a year, READ MORE

I had trouble choosing just one thing for this week’s prompt, so I’ve selected a few different themes or features and am sharing a few (or more) books for each! Most I’ve read, but there are a couple in here that are still on my TBR waiting for me to get to them!   A READ MORE

Oh man, quote prompts are always so hard! I don’t make notes of them, and my memory is pretty much useless these days. So there’s zero chance I’m going to remember any, and I don’t have a way of looking them up at will! So I’m turning to Google for help on this one. I’m READ MORE

I’m not a huge historical fiction reader, nor do I read a lot of Sci-Fi that would take me far into the future, but nonetheless I think I’ve got quite a few to choose from for this prompt! I’m including a few set in the future, as well as several set in the past (spoiler READ MORE

There are lots of books I’ve read but not reviewed – some because I read them before I started blogging, some because they were part of a large series and didn’t stand out individually, and some because I didn’t get to the review fast enough and forgot too many details to be able to write READ MORE

It’s that time of year again – the arbitrary day on which Hallmark decided we should spend a ridiculous amount of money on cards that will be read once and thrown in the bin, chocolates that lead to inordinate guilt and/or tummy aches, and flowers that’ll be dead in a week. Valentine’s Day! Can you READ MORE

This is one of those post prompts that will inevitably  make me feel a bit bad about all the reading I meant to do last year but didn’t get around to. Hopefully the guilt will have abated by the time you’re reading this (I’m writing it a month in advance since 2024 isn’t going to READ MORE

I’ve read a lot of books I really enjoyed over the past year, many by authors I hadn’t read before. It’s hard to narrow the list down, so I apologize in advance if this list is longer than it should be (okay, it definitely will be)!               Legends & READ MORE

My TBR is always full to bursting, mostly with books I’ll either forget I ever added or books I’ll keep remembering and wanting to read, but never actually get around to. I’ve stopped watching much BookTube content and don’t really spend a lot of time looking for new release book lists online – partly because READ MORE

So as every year, I’m here to say I don’t do resolutions. I don’t like starting off the year with the pressure of a bunch of pie-in-the-sky goals I know I’m not going to be able to complete. Basically if I set resolutions I’m planning to fail. I know they work for some people, and READ MORE

I  haven’t really been paying that much attention to anything that’s supposed to be happening in 2025. Quite frankly, I’ve only just recently mastered writing 2024 instead of 2023 at the end of the date. I’m not ready for another new year yet, guys! But no one seems to be listening to my complaints, and READ MORE

I’ve been lucky this year and I’ve read a lot of really fantastic books. The hardest part of this post will be picking which ones to include! Here are some of them:                  Rescuing Ruby by Nicola Baker Somewhere Beyond the Sea by TJ Klune Frank & Red by READ MORE

I’ve been trying very hard over the past couple of years not to spend as much time with my ear to the ground listening out for new books to add to my TBR. It’s hard for me to resist something new and shiny, so the best way to manage my book spending (which needs to READ MORE

As usual, I don’t have a proper TBR set for my winter reading. I’ll either be too busy to read much, or I’ll breeze through a whole bunch of random books that strike my fancy at the particular moment I’m looking for something to read for no specific reason. You know how I do. But READ MORE

   Oooh this is a fascinating prompt! I love it! Of course, now I have to actually find books that match the emotions I’m pairing with it, which may be  little more challenging! Let’s see how I do.   Books that feel as stormy as the weather:        The Witching Hour by Anne READ MORE

  This week’s topic is a freebie, so I’m looking back at books I’ve read, and either I read them long enough ago that I only have a vague recollection of them that I’d like to update, or I loved them so much I want to experience them again (or, possibly, both). Others I want READ MORE

  I think it must be Thanksgiving for our Southern neighbours around now, so this week’s prompt is “thankful.” I’m not big on Thanksgiving in general because the whole history thing, plus it wasn’t ever much of a thing in my family. But the concept of being thankful in general is something I try to READ MORE
