Favorite Covers of 2020

These are all from books that I actually read OR have bought and currently have in my TBR (oh, there are far too many 2020 releases I still haven't had the chance to pick up and read yet). All of these are pleasing to me for some reason or other. Did any of these make … Continue reading Favorite Covers of 2020

I decided that I'm not doing a TBR for December. I had already decided some time ago that December would be dedicated to mood reading. Usually the last year of the month works out to be mostly mood reading anyway as I power through trying to read as many books as possible to up my … Continue reading Happy December – The Month of Mood Reading

This Week in Reading: Mood Reading Continues to be the Best

So. I'm really loving just mood reading. The only problem I've run into so far is that on Sunday night I wasn't quite sure what I was in the mood for next but that problem was quickly solved.
