Down the TBR Hole #69

Published on 19/12/202119/12/2021 by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

It feels like it’s been ages since I’ve written a Down the TBR Hole post, but it’s actually only been two weeks. The way time goes is weird at times, haha. With my Goodreads TBR still being so high I’m definitely going to stick to doing these posts regularly.

Down the TBR Hole was originally created over at Lost in a Story. 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!

I really love when that happens, but there are still quite a few authors who have books that sounds good and I want to give a try in 2022. Today I want to talk about a few of those authors.

Bookish Item | My Unread Manga & Graphic Novels

Published on 16/12/202115/12/2021 by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

I wasn’t feeling any tags for today so I decided to do a bookish item. And when I was looking around my room I thought it would be interesting to share my unread manga and graphic novels. You could also say this is my manga and graphic novel TBR. It’s not big but I do think I have a couple of exciting reads on there. Let’s jump in!

Can’t Wait Wednesday | Survive the Dome – Kosoko Jackson

Published on 15/12/202112/12/2021 by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

We wanted to do another bookish meme on Wednesday and after doing Can’t Wait Wednesday a few times we decided that would be a fun one to bring around more often! About twice a month you’ll see this meme on our blog.

Can’t-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Wishful Endings, to spotlight and discuss the books we’re excited about that we have yet to read. Generally they’re books that have yet to be released. It’s based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by Jill at Bre aking the Spine. Continue reading “Can’t Wait Wednesday | Survive the Dome – Kosoko Jackson” →

TTT #215 | Books On My Winter TBR

Published on 14/12/202112/12/2021 by The Book Dutchesses17 Comments

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 On My Winter TBR. I always have more than 10 books on my TBR and I don’t think I’ve ever read all ten books I’ve put on these TBRs, but here are 10 books I hope to read this winter!

5 On My TBR | Magical Realism/Fabulism

Published on 13/12/202112/12/2021 by The Book Dutchesses1 Comment

Tracking your TBR is pretty important when it’s quite large, haha. Besides Down the TBR Hole and my Netgalley Backlist we needed something to track my physical TBR. 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 Magical Realism/Fabulism. I think there are some controversies on which books should be magical realism, so I believe that’s why there is also the term fabulism. Especially without reading the books I’m not sure which books on my shelves are magical realism (or fabulism). So I’m going off of what is on Goodreads. It might not be totally correct but it is what I’m going with today haha. Let’s jump in! Continue reading “5 On My TBR | Magical Realism/Fabulism” →

As you all know I watch a ton of shows. And one of my most anticipated shows for this month (and actually this year) was the final season of La Casa de Papel. I loved this show throughout the first 4 seasons and after watching the first half of the final season earlier this year I just had to watch these episodes right away. And today I want to share my thoughts about them, so let’s jump in! Continue reading “Show Sunday | La Casa de Papel – Final Season” →
