It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together. I’ve stuck to six books for this week’s topic, partlyContinueContinue reading “Top Ten Tuesday: Books I’m Worried I Might Not Love the Second Time Around”

Books I’m Excited to Read
I know I do #5OnMyTBR on Mondays, but with the theme for them I usually find myself picking from my whole TBR (aka almost every book I own), so today I thought I’d specifically highlight just some of the reading challenge books that are up next on my TBR. Gay Aliens and Queer Folk: HowContinueContinue reading “Books I’m Excited to Read”

That Dreaded TBR #57
I get a strange amount of joy out of doing these posts, which is great as I think I’ll be doing them for a long, long time to come! Hopefully by the time I eventually (if ever) get to the end, I’ll have wiped off some other books by actually reading them. I am makingContinueContinue reading “That Dreaded TBR #57”
