Hey all, Sam here. Blogging catch up continues. I have so many books that I've read this year (I'm at almost 70 books already) and I still need to review them. I can only blame myself for not getting the posts drafted and scheduled in a timely manner. Anyway, I'm trying to get myself focused… Continue reading NetGalley Review: Attached at the Hip by Christine Riccio
Hey all, Sam here. I am so far behind on all of my book reviewing, and my book writing....and just life in general it feels like. Perhaps I shouldn't be so hard on myself, but I look back at the history of this blog to when I actually was posting like 10-12 posts each week… Continue reading NetGalley Review: Twelfth Knight by Alexene Farol Follmuth
Hey all, Sam here. So I finished...10 books in April. That's honestly not bad at all, although it is still lower than what I'm used to. When I was really dialed in to my reading and blogging, so around 2018-2019, I was reading something like 20 books each month, and posting something like 45 posts… Continue reading April Wrap-Up
Hey all, Sam here. I'm going to start off this post by calling myself out, because this is not the first book by Hafsah Faizal that I've read. It's just the first one I've reviewed, even though I meant to review her debut novel a couple years ago...so my current plan is to do a… Continue reading Book Review: A Tempest of Tea by Hafsah Faizal
Hey all, Sam here. I'd love to have the energy and enthusiasm to write up a great intro for today's post, but even just sticking to my blogging plan and getting these posts finished and scheduled is proving problematic thanks to my mental health being in a rough patch right now. But I'm going to… Continue reading Book Review: Just Stab Me Now by Jill Bearup
Hey all, Sam here. Yeah, I definitely planned to have this review up on Tuesday, but things got a little topsy-turvy for a few days, so I had to push back everything on my blog schedule so I could accommodate the fact that I had mostly prepared four posts but then didn't finish/schedule them. I'll… Continue reading NetGalley Review: Mammoths at the Gates by Nghi Vo
Hey all, Sam here. At the moment I'm not sure if the writing advice I need is the gentle kind or the harsh kind. I mean, obviously I'm trying to be more gentle with myself when I have multiple days (or weeks) in a row where I'm not getting a whole lot of actual writing… Continue reading Weekend Writer: Gentle Writing Advice: How to Be a Writer Without Destroying Yourself by Chuck Wendig
Hey all, Sam here. Oops...I had yesterday's post mostly prepped but forgot to finish it and schedule it, and I got a little busy at work, so I wasn't able to get it posted...which broke my 10 day blog streak. But, since I had the post mostly completed anyway, I'll just do a double post… Continue reading Book Review: Lady of Darkness by Melissa K. Roehrich
Hey all, Sam here. Yes, the reviews just keep coming. I guess that's what happens when it's only April and I've already read 44 books this year...plus there were all the books I read in the last few months of the year last year that I didn't talk about here. So, I'm working on catching… Continue reading Book Review: Forged in Magic by Jenna Wolfhart
Hey all, Sam here. It's been a fun few days trying to get everything planned out for the month of April. Considering that I have a good number of books I want to read, plus my April Writing goal of adding 30k to my current WIP, I wanted to have as much of this month's… Continue reading NetGalley Review: A Fate Inked in Blood by Danielle L Jensen
