Hey all, Dani here. Okay, so I'm back with more book recommendations. Today I'm talking about books that feature characters who identify as LGBTQIAP+. Now, I know there are a large number of books that will be missing from my list, and please feel free to mention them in the comments. I'm pretty much sticking… Continue reading LGBTQ+ Recommendations

TBR Purge Time – #8
Hey all, Dani here. I'm back with another purge post. Several other people were starting to do Down the Rabbit Hole and TBR purge posts and it sounded like a good idea to me. But, whereas their posts have you go through 5 (or 10) books at one time, I knew that pace would take… Continue reading TBR Purge Time – #8
Review: The Language of Thorns by Leigh Bardugo
Hey all, Dani here. Okay fans of the Grishaverse...did you hear the latest news? I mean the news that Leigh's next Grishaverse books will focus on one of my absolute favorite characters, Nikolai? Yeah, I'm super excited about that. What I'm not excited about...having to wait until 2019 to get my hands on the first… Continue reading Review: The Language of Thorns by Leigh Bardugo
Review: Life is Like a Musical: How to Live, Love, and Lead Like a Star by Tim Federle
Hey all, Dani here. Today I am pleased to present a slightly early review. This book is not one I had even heard of until I saw it while walking the show floor at BookExpo, and all I had to do was see the title and the author's name to know that I had to… Continue reading Review: Life is Like a Musical: How to Live, Love, and Lead Like a Star by Tim Federle
September Wrap-Up and October TBR
Hey all, Dani here. How are we already at the start of October? I think this is the fastest a year has gone by for me. It's crazy to think that in just a couple months it will be time to start putting 2018 in the date instead of 2017. This month was not as… Continue reading September Wrap-Up and October TBR
Comic Mini Reviews: Vox Machina Origins and Bitch Planet
Hey all, Dani here. So, I don't do a lot of mini reviews on here, but I'm making a bit of an exception today. Though I could probably rave and ramble on about both of these intriguing stories, if I did so who knows when I would be able to squeeze them onto this blog.… Continue reading Comic Mini Reviews: Vox Machina Origins and Bitch Planet
Review: One Dark Throne by Kendare Blake
Hey all, Dani here. Last year the hype around Three Dark Crowns was massive...with so many people gushing about how utterly amazing and dark the story was. And yes, while I enjoyed the book and read it fairly quickly, I was not quite as excited. The concept was interesting and the final chapter was outstanding, but… Continue reading Review: One Dark Throne by Kendare Blake

Hey all, Dani here. It is still Banned Books Week, and today I want to talk about some banned books that I think people need to read. Also, because there are some books that have been very prominent and influential in recent months, I'll have a few of those listed at the end. I'm pretty… Continue reading Banned Books Recommendations
TBR Purge #7
Hey all, Dani here. So I'm starting to get more posts up, whether they are tags, reviews, or recommendations, so I'll be reducing the number of purge posts. They will be posted only on Wednesdays now, instead of sometimes happening twice a week. But I saw several people doing Down the TBR Rabbit Hole posts… Continue reading TBR Purge #7
Why Are Books Banned?
Hey all, Dani here. It is Banned Books Week, and that means I'm going to have a couple of posts talking about some of these books that have been challenged and/or banned. As in, people have filed complaints suggesting that certain books be removed from libraries and/or schools for varying reasons. Today I'm talking about… Continue reading Why Are Books Banned?
