#YARC Update and TBR

Here is my sign-up post I didn't do an update for January because I only read one book by an Asian author, so here I go with something barely better. The books I read: The Emperor of all Maladies Girls of Paper and Fire What happened? I got stuck in the library hole. In January …

Top Ten Tuesday: Book settings I’d like to visit

Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl What I like about this topic is that it doesn't say I have to be able to visit 😉 Once again I'll divide my list into two sections: places I could visit and those I'll just have to imagine myself going to 1. PEI When I was …

Why don’t you read our books? (when I don’t read them either)

In 2009, the French publisher Michel Lafon announced that they would be publishing a new edition of the Quebec best seller series Le journal d'Aurélie Laflamme.

Sapphicathon week = amazing week This has been a great week of reading. So many of the books I've been …

Top Ten Tuesday: Upcoming releases I’m on the fence about

Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl I'm not to restrictive with the books I add to my Goodreads TBR so this list will be divided in two categories: books I'm not sure I want to read and books I'm in no rush to pick up (change my mind?) Books I'm not …

January Wrap-Up

January was a weird month. I feel like I did nothing but I finished 22 books (!), started knitting a new pair of socks, played some role-playing games and visited family in the States. Even with 22 books completed I'm not super happy. Only one 5 stars read and an average of 2.9. The Poet …

Sapphicaton TBR

It's finally time for Sapphicathon! Thank you for the hosts Elise, Natasha and Jamieson for hosting. The coming work will we be so busy this readathon might be the only think keeping me afloat. I pre-ordered the paperback version of Once Ghosted, Twice Shy so I won't be able to read it, but I'll try …
