Bookish Item | Goodreads Most Popular Romantasy of 2026

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

As you might know, I love looking at Goodreads lists and today I had a look at the most popular romance and romantasy books of 2026. While I am slowly turning into a romance girly, I didn’t expect to have read any from that category. But I did expect to have read some from the romantasy category. Turns out, I haven’t read any of those either! So I figured it would be fun to take a look at the romantasy books I would like to read from this list. Let’s jump in!

Review| Tropesick – Lauren Okie

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

As a romance reader, I definitely have tropes I love more than others. When I heard about Tropesick it caught my eye. I love when a story plays with things like that and that our main characters would be writing a book. Today I want to tell you all about this book and what I thought!

A big thank you to Netgalley and Avon Books for providing me with an eARC to read and review. This doesn’t affect my opinion in any way.

WWW Wednesday #117

Published on by The Book Dutchesses2 Comments

It’s Wednesday, so time for a new WWW Wednesday to talk about my reading progress and plans. I really love these posts and talking more about what I’m reading before the monthly wrap up. Even if my reading plans change I like thinking about what I’m going to read!

So it’s time for my next WWW Wednesday. This is a weekly meme hosted by Taking On a World of Words and you participate by simply answering three questions:

  • What did you recently finish reading?
  • What are you currently reading?
  • What do you think you’ll read next?

TTT #431 | Book Series I Want to Catch Up On

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

We have been having fun with Top Ten Tuesday, so we decided we will do one every week. This bookish meme was hosted by The Broke and the Bookish, and has been going since June 2010! Since January 2018 Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl.

This week’s topic is Books I Was Reading On This Day Over the Last Ten Years, but I wasn’t really feeling it. So I decided to do next week’s topic; Book Series I Want to Catch Up On. I start a lot of series and I finish way too little of them. So this is a perfect topic for me haha. Let’s jump in! Continue reading “TTT #431 | Book Series I Want to Catch Up On” →

Down the TBR Hole #180

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

Nothing has changed on my want to read shelf since my last the Down the TBR Hole. I’ve said it before and I still think this, as long as I’m not adding any to this shelf, I’m happy!

Down the TBR Hole was originally created over at Lost in a Story. This meme is now being hosted by Jody from I’m Into Books. It looked like a fun and productive way to finally make a dent in that Goodreads TBR. I went through my want-to-read shelf a little while ago but I think I was still to kind on a lot of books. Let’s see what I’ll make of it this time around. I decided to go with 10 books at a time so lets get started!

Blog Tour| The Final Score – Lana Ferguson

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

Sports romances have been something I’m really in the mood to read lately, so the arrival of my eARC of The Final Score came at the perfect time. I’ve read romances by Lana Ferguson before and had a good time, so I had a feeling this one would be a good time.

A big thank you to Netgalley and Berkley for providing me with an eARC to read and review for this blog tour. This doesn’t affect my opinion in any way.

As a blogger and bookstagrammer, I still feel like it’s a big honor to get access to books before they release. I always love helping promote authors and their books, so new approvals are also very exciting. Today I want to talk about a few of my most recent Netgalley approvals. Let’s take a look!
