Discussion – Responsibilities with requesting ARC’s

This is a topic I was hoping to visit towards the end of this month but, when I recently made the difficult decision to DNF a physical ARC from a publisher, I moved this discussion up a few weeks. Before I go any further though, I need to mention the abbreviations DNF and ARC. DNF…

So, you DNF’d a book… Now what? Goodreads discussion

When was the last time I did a discussion post? NO! Don’t look, I don’t want to know. It will only embarrass the living hell out of me lol. Safe to say – it’s been a while….. a long ass while! Let’s see if I remember how to do this…. So. Here’s a thought that’s…

Chamber of Secrets Reread – Spoiler Discussion!

Gah! The decision to reread the Harry Potter series was a hard one. I’ve got so many ARC’s, backlogged books, and even a manuscript to read – and here I am reading something I’ve already read. But this reread couldn’t have come at a better time. My life has been SO busy lately and these…

Harry Potter #1 Reread – spoiler discussion!

As I’m sure you’ve all caught onto by now, I’m slightly obsessed with Harry Potter. *Ahem – sarcasm! I have a deep seeded love for this series…… and it’s something I fought for the longest time! When the first book became popular, I was older than most of you. I was in high school, in…

Discussion – When do you start a new book?

It’s been a looooooooong time since my last discussion post……. as in, I honestly can’t remember the last one! I’ve always wanted to do more of these but I feel like I struggle to come up with topics. Not today! A little while ago I had a discussion with someone about starting a new book….

Do un-relatable characters effect your feelings of a book?

Wow! It’s been quite a while since I’ve done a discussion post! But this topic was weighing heavily on my mind for the last little while and I wondered what you all thought. When I was doing some research on a book I was interested in, I noticed that there were very mixed feelings. Some…

Discussion – how many books do you read at one time?

My curiosity is getting the best of me here! I’ve found that there are two types of readers: The person who reads only one book at a time The person who has 3 or more books on the go at all times I’m personally number one. I’ve only really ever been a book monogamist and…

I’m getting real – My Cancer Story and sometimes anxiety wins

This is a totally unrelated post. But I’m struggling. HARD. The last week or so has not been easy. I will understand if no one reads this post. I’m kind of writing it as a way to deal with and face my current emotions. They’re fighting to overtake me, and they’re winning. So if I…

Hard Topics – yes, you’re uncomfortable, but they’re still important!

This post is a discussion but at the same time its not. It’s more of a post where I’ve got some strong bottled up feelings that I’ve decided to put out into the world. Over the last few weeks I’ve read some really hard hitting, emotional, and difficult books. Two of them dealing with rape…
