Hey all, Sam here. I have been a little lax with my blog posting this month, after finally catching up to my personal blogging goals in the last couple months, but it took me a little longer to get caught up on rest after Gen Con this year. But I have read some great books… Continue reading I’m Anticipating the Release of these September Books!
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. Coming to the end of June, it's time to look forward to July and all the fantastic books coming out that I'm looking forward to adding to my shelves. And thankfully there are a number of books I'm adding to my lists. As with any month, there are a number of… Continue reading I’m Looking Forward to These July Releases
Hey all, Sam here. Gosh, this year is kind of flying by, which feels strange considering what a wild ride 2025 has been so far. But here we are, approaching a new month, and that means I'm looking ahead at a whole new slew of book releases. June is another pretty great month for releases,… Continue reading Getting Excited for the Books of June

It led to me reading a couple hundred books each year. This was back in 2019 and 2020, but then I… Continue reading May Books I’m Looking Forward To
Hey all, Sam here. I have not been great at sticking to a TBR lately. My reading time and my reading mood have been difficult to schedule and predict the past...oh, six months or so. And yet, part of me keeps trying to plan out what I want to read in any given month or… Continue reading What Books Am I Looking Forward to in April?
Hey all, Sam here. I try to do this post twice a year, each time covering a six-month chunk of time, but a lot of books come out in that span of time and while I anticipate a whole bunch of books each year, the reality is that I don't come close to reading all… Continue reading Most Anticipated Releases (Jan-June 2025)
Hey all, Sam here. It's the 25th of December, so why not have a post today? Merry Christmas to those who celebrate today, and a Happy Holidays in general because there are so many different holidays at this time of year. I've seen a lot of posts across social media talking about the 25 books… Continue reading 25 in 2025
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 want to start getting my overdue book reviews up on the page, and I will (hopefully sooner than later), but things in the US are....well, not good, honestly. So I'm trying to be gentle to myself when it comes to forced productivity. Anyway, on Wednesday, my husband took me on… Continue reading Recent Book Haul
