August TBR

Hey all, Sam here. Wow, okay, so we're at the end of July, and I think things went pretty well with the TBR for the month, so we'll do it again for August. I mean, okay, I guess it helps that I'm really trying to keep up with my NetGalley release schedule the past few… Continue reading August TBR

WIP Wednesday – July 26

Hey all, Sam and David back again today. It has been another fulfilling week for us here at Free State of Geek. While we sometimes feel like we don't have all that productive of a week, that's just because to us it does seem a little slow...but in reality we're still doing a lot of… Continue reading WIP Wednesday – July 26

WIP Wednesday – July 19

Hey all, Sam and David back again today. In just two more weeks we will be on our way to Gen Con. Oh my goodness, we're starting to get really excited about that. It'll be nice to indulge our tabletop game loving sides, because we haven't been able to do that as much this year.… Continue reading WIP Wednesday – July 19

WIP Wednesday – July 12

July TBR

Hey all, Sam here. Okay, the June TBR actually went pretty well. At least in terms of me having a reading plan for the month...and I mostly stuck to it, even though there were a couple minor adjustments and rearrangements, so... let's try again for July. Starting with...the NetGalley reads I'm hoping to read and… Continue reading July TBR

WIP Wednesday – June 28

Hey all, Sam and David here today. There has been so much going on over here at Free State of Geek, both individually and together. We normally get up to quite a bit of stuff, but it seems that since we are on opposing work schedules, we get even more done when the other person… Continue reading WIP Wednesday – June 28

Mid Year Book Freakout Tag (2023 Edition)

Hey all, Sam here. So...I did this tag in 2017, 2018, and 2019...and then for some reason just skipped it the past couple years. But you know, what, let's bring it back. The rules are super simple...answer the prompts. Well, I guess technically you need to think about the fact that all of the prompts… Continue reading Mid Year Book Freakout Tag (2023 Edition)

Most Anticipated Releases July-Dec 2023

Hey all, Sam here. Well, I did one of these posts at the beginning of the year, looking at releases I was looking forward to for the first half of the year, so now it's time to circle back around and look ahead at the rest of the year...because there are a good number of… Continue reading Most Anticipated Releases July-Dec 2023

June TBR

Hey all, Sam here. It feels a little silly to do this. Historically I've been more unsuccessful with TBRs than I have been successful. But I also feel like I've done a pretty good job at sticking to the TBRs I've made for my last two reading challenges (Dewey's 24 Hour Readathon in April, and… Continue reading June TBR

Let’s Chat About Books (Especially Anticipated Reads)

Hey all, Sam here. I've realized that since I don't do TBR posts anymore--which makes sense considering the fact that I very rarely stick to a TBR--I don't really talk much about books I'm excited about reading. Sure, I had my Jan-June Anticipated Releases post (and there's a July-Dec one coming next month), but aside… Continue reading Let’s Chat About Books (Especially Anticipated Reads)
