Hello besties! Happy October — the scary season is officially upon us and I am so excited!
There are so many horror, mystery/thriller, and just autumnal vibe stories that I want to read this month and I thought it would be fun to share with you some books I’m planning and hoping to read this month!
So, get cozy and let’s go through some of my scary season TBR!

Hi friends! At the beginning of this month I visited my best friend in the NYC area, and aside from seeing some Broadway shows (yes, we did see & Juliet twice within 24 hours), we visited a lot of bookstores. Therefore, I thought it would be fun to tell you about the bookstores we visited and what I bought!
So get comfy, grab a snack and/or your favorite beverage, and let’s talk about all six of the bookstores I went to over Labor Day weekend!

Hi my little darlings! It’s been a while since I’ve posted, but I’m so happy to be back. I’ll do a little catch up on my adventures at the end of the month with my wrap up, but today, I thought I’d expose myself for all the books I’ve been gifted and haven’t had the chance to read yet, and all the ARCs I haven’t read yet either!

Hi besties, happy Thursday! I hope you’re all doing well and staying safe 
I thought it would be fun to go over what I’ve got on my NetGalley TBR!
This year I’ve been trying to be much more mindful when it comes to requesting ARCs — only requesting ARCs that I’m really excited about as opposed to just anything that sounds interesting, not letting arcs pile up, reading them in a timeline manner (well, mostly), etc, etc.
At the beginning of the year I was doing a really great job of getting through my ARCs. I read 5 ARCs in January alone and while I haven’t read that many in one month again, I have done a fairly good job of keeping my unread ARCs under control. As of now, I have 5 unread ARCs and I thought we’d chat a bit about why I’m excited to read them.
You know the drill — grab your favorite beverage, get comfy, and let’s chat about ARCs!

Hi dear friends! As I mentioned in my June Wrap Up, I’m really trying to dial it back with reading as many books this month, and instead, focus more on my annotation projects that I started at the beginning of the year and lost traction for. It’s also been a while since my last “how I annotate” post, and I wanted to update y’all on that as well! Grab a fun beverage, and get cozy!

Well, I blinked and suddenly we’re six months through the year. While that’s…overwhelmingly disturbing because really, where is the time going — it’s also exciting because there are so many book releases during the last six months of this year that I’m super excited about.
You know the drill, grab your comfort beverage, get comfy, and let’s talk new releases.

Hello, hello, friends, I hope that you’re all doing well! I’m in that mood where I don’t really want to focus on one book, so I’m jumping back and forth between multiple books, so I thought I’d share a bit about some of the books that I’m reading this week!
Grab a cup of tea or whatever your favorite beverage is, get cozy, and let’s chat!

One of my goals for 2023 is to read more non-fiction, and I’ve been really fortunate to have picked up some incredibly captivating nonfiction reads lately! When it comes to picking nonfiction reads, I’ve been trying to branch out too — not just memoirs, or books on a specific topic! I thought it’d be fun to share some of my favorite nonfiction reads of this year so far.

Hi friends! I hope your month is going well! As you all know (because I literally never shut up about it, you’re welcome), I love all things Shakespeare —- what you may not know is that William Shakespeare’s birth date and death date is April 23rd. Because of this, I always like to consume lots of Shakespeare-related media at this time, and I figured, why not make a blog post out of it?
In this post, we’ll be talking about some of my favorite books, movies, and musicals inspired by the Bard and his works. So as always, grab a cup of tea, get cozy, and let’s talk Shakespeare!

Hi friends! This past week was a pretty exciting one, I had my 30th birthday on the 12th (yay!) and honestly, I’m really looking forward to starting my 30s. I feel like in the last 5 years (yes, that was an intention theatre reference) I’ve really started to grow into the person I’m supposed to be — and even if some days are hard, I’m definitely growing into a person I love and respect, so I’m excited to see how that continues as I enter the third decade of my life.
With this new decade of my life starting, I thought it would be fun to do a post on 30 books that I want to read during my 30th year. I started it and thought “Wow, picking 30 books feels oddly daunting?” then I decided to split it into three categories — so, in this post I’ll be sharing 10 backlist books, 10 2023 releases, and 10 new to me authors that I want to read over the next year.
So, grab your favorite beverage and a snack, get cozy, and let’s talk about books!
