Hey all, Sam here. Honestly, August feels like a slower month for book releases, but it's also my birthday month, so I'm just always excited for it to come around again. Reaching my birthday each year makes me daydream about all the books I might get to read over the next year of my life....while… Continue reading Books I’m Looking Forward to in August
Hey all, Sam here. We have made it halfway through the year! Somehow we have survived half of this year. At times it has absolutely been a struggle, but here we are, still trying to keep going. This has been such a difficult year already, and I know a lot of us are concerned about… Continue reading June Wrap-Up
Hey all, Sam here. I think today is a good day to review a book, especially since I have so many books I still need to review. While I do have a whole bunch of books I've read and would like to talk about, my primary review focus is on my NetGalley reads at the… Continue reading NetGalley Review: Pearly Gates by Bonnie Solomon
Hey all, Sam here. I'm wishing a very happy release month to today's review, which was released March 4th. So a few months back I participated in a cover reveal for The Witch and His Crow and I was really looking forward to reading it...and then I went into reading slumps and got distracted by… Continue reading ARC Review: The Witch and His Crow by Ben Alderson
Hey all, Sam here. Several years ago, I had a book blog friend who hosted a reading challenge at the end of the year called Diverse December...and while I read diversely year-round, it is nice to also have months where I focus on and highlight those diverse reads and diverse authors just a little more… Continue reading Diverse December Plans
Hey all, Sam here. I had to delete the first two paragraphs of today's post...because I had drafted it to be published back in June. Yep, that's right, June. I have been really terrible about blogging about the books I've read in the past couple of years. Honestly, I've looked back at my year-end lists… Continue reading NetGalley Review: Can’t Spell Treason Without Tea by Rebecca Thorne
Hey all, Sam here. When I posted about my participation in a end-of-year writing challenge last week, I believe I mentioned that I wanted to try and do semi-regular check-ins on my progress. We're just over a week in, so I guess let's talk about my progress... Well, I knew Day 1 was going to… Continue reading PaWriCo Week 1 Check-In
Hey all, Sam here. I'm still reading books, but not nearly as much as I normally would in a month. It's absolutely frustrating for me, because I want to read, but the times where I want to read I keep getting interrupted (because that's how it goes at work most days) or something comes up… Continue reading September TBR
Hey all, Sam here. Today, I am so very excited to be on the cover reveal team for an upcoming release. While this book won't be out until early 2025, I was immediately intrigued by the book's title...and then the fact that it is being pitched as gay "Charmed" meets "The Hunger Games." So, yeah,… Continue reading Cover Reveal: The Witch and His Crow by Ben Alderson
Hey all, Sam here. Oh yeah, the reviews just keep coming in, and I'm trying to focus on books that are releasing around now. But I do still have a nice backlog that I also need to get around to, and I'll hopefully be able to do that a bit more in the next couple… Continue reading NetGalley Review: The Honey Witch by Sydney J Shields
