Down the TBR Hole #177

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

No changes on my want to read shelf since the last post, but we’re going to get under 350 pages in this post! I can’t imagine keeping all of the books, haha. Let’s give it a go!

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!

Bookish Item| July TBR

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

We’re nearing the end of the month, so time for a new TBR. Like I say every single month, I rarely follow these TBRs. I’m very much a mood reader at the moment. That being said, they’re still a lot of fun to make. And at the moment, I do want to read every single one of these books. So let’s take a look at my July TBR!

Bookish Item | Books To Read During This Heatwave

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

Most of Europe is suffering through a heatwave at the moment and I for one am not built for this weather! I hate sweating when I’m not working out and working with 29 kids in a hot classroom is something else. My part of the building doesn’t have airconditioning so it is HOT haha. My concentration isn’t great either, so heavy books are not working for me at the moment. I figured it would be fun to make a small list of book I would recommend picking up with this kind of weather. So let’s jump in!

My last Show Sunday post was about upcoming tv shows I was really excited about. One of the shows I talked about was Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed on Apple TV.

Review| Love Overboard – Kandi Steiner

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

I’m not someone who watches a lot of reality TV except for some cooking competitions. That being said, Love Overboard sounded like it would be right up my alley, so I had to give this one a go. Today I’m going to tell you all about this book and what I thought!

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