I finished March with 24 ARCs left to be read. Happy May! The month of April turned out to be unexpectedly busy for me, well … busier than I was already expecting. Between the weather getting nicer, Passover and family visiting, needing shoulder surgery (which I’m having today, […]
Today’s prompt idea was petty reasons I’ve DNF’d a book, but I typically don’t DNF books for petty reasons. I say typically because there was that one time …. FINE. I’ll tell you since you twisted my arm. I’ve lived within a short drive of a town called […]
Thanks for stopping by—I know I haven’t been the most consistent with these posts, but I’m trying my best. This week I decided to discuss a topic that isn’t contentious, but is a strongly held personal preference. Today’s topic is heroes or villains: which one do you prefer? […]
I’m feeling personally called out by this week’s prompt, which is unread books sitting on my shelves I want to read soon (bonus points if you tell us how long it’s been sitting on your shelf waiting for you.) A lot of the people who read my blog […]

In the Shadow of the Greenbrier Thank you to NetGalley, Penguin Random House, and Ashley Hewlett for sending me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. For fans of Pam Jenoff and Diane Chamberlain, a deeply poignant multigenerational Jewish family saga set around the […]
Happy Tuesday and second day of April! This week’s prompt is April Showers and we get to pick our own direction for this prompt. Some ideas we were given are books with rain on the cover/in the title, that have rainstorms in the story, or that have anything […]
