Published on by The Book Dutchesses1 Comment

When a book gets a lot of hype online, I’m always afraid to pick it up. I tend to have high expectations and that was also the case with Before I Let Go. Believe me when I say this book lived up to all of them and then some.

Today I want to tell you more about this book and my thoughts. Please be aware that this book deals with a lot of heavier and darker subjects that you may want to look up before reading.

Bookish Item | Bookstores to visit in Chicago & New York

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

While on this trip I obviously want to visit some bookstores! My weekend in Chicago was pretty booked (pun intended) but there was a small opening on Monday to hope into a bookstore. And since the friend I’m staying with in New York has to work during the day, I’ll have all the time browsing bookstore. With only carry on luggage, I have to be mindful of what I buy but I’m sure I can fit in a book or 2. Continue reading “Bookish Item | Bookstores to visit in Chicago & New York” →

5 On My TBR| Superheroes

Published on by The Book Dutchesses4 Comments

As I’ve mentioned before, one of my important reading goals of 2023 is shrinking my physical TBR. Sometimes it’s hard to think of what books I still have or subjects I want to read about. So we needed a way to keep track of this. 5 On My TBR is a way of keeping track. This is a meme hosted by E from Local Bee Hunter’s Nook. Every week there’s a different prompt for five on my TBR.

This week’s topic is superheroes. I already have a few that come to mind when I read this week’s theme. Let’s take a look at the five books on my TBR that have to do with superheroes.
