TTT #212 | Characters I’d Love An Update On

Published on by The Book Dutchesses10 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 Characters I’d Love An Update On, where are they now that the book is over? I had a couple of characters that came to mind right away. But others were a bit harder to come up with. Let’s see which characters I picked! Continue reading “TTT #212 | Characters I’d Love An Update On” →

Review| The Ex Hex – Erin Sterling

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

In October I was looking for a few “spooky” reads when I kept hearing about The Ex Hex. Just that title alone made me want to give the book a go. So of course, I sat down and read this one and actually finished it on Halloween. It took a little while, but today I want to tell you about The Ex Hex and what I thought. Keep on reading to find out more!

Down the TBR Hole #67

Published on by The Book Dutchesses1 Comment

The last Down the TBR Hole was written a couple of days after I wrote Down the TBR Hole #65. It’s now been a couple of weeks and I’m happy to say that I haven’t added any new books to my want to read shelf on Goodreads. So I’m going to continue to tackle my Goodreads TBR.

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!

Review | Where The Drowned Girls Go – Seanan McGuire

Published on by The Book Dutchesses1 Comment

I have been loving the Wayward Children books by Seanan McGuire for years now and I’m very excited for every upcoming release. So of course I was ecstatic to receive an eARC of the newest release through Netgalley. The last book was a bit of a disappointment so I was a little bit hesitant but decided to read the book right away anyway. And today I want to talk about my thought on Where the Drowned Girls Go. So let’s jump in!

Published on by The Book Dutchesses1 Comment

So I posted my Netgalley Backlist Part 9 only two weeks ago, but with it being Netgalley November I figured it would be good to continue with these posts. I might do them less frequently after this, but we’ll see how it goes. Let’s take a look at the next 8 books on my Netgalley Backlist.

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

Today I have a pretty small tag for you all. I came across this Grisha tag, and even though it’s basically a mini tag I couldn’t resist. As you hopefully know I love all things Grisha so I just had to go for it haha. I got this tag from the original creator Lauren from Laurensbookshelf. Let’s jump in!

Can’t Wait Wednesday | My Imaginary Mary – Cynthia Hand, Brodi Ashton & Jodi Meadows

Published on by The Book Dutchesses2 Comments

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 Breaking the Spine. Continue reading “Can’t Wait Wednesday | My Imaginary Mary – Cynthia Hand, Brodi Ashton & Jodi Meadows” →

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 to Read if You Love X. So I decided to make this topic into Books to Read If You Love Romantic Comedies. I’m a big fan of them myself and love when books give me the same vibes as my favorite movies.

5 On My TBR | Family

Published on by The Book Dutchesses1 Comment

It’s been a while since I’ve done a 5 On My TBR post, but I wanted to do another one. I keep track of my ARCs and other books, so it’s also fun to keep track of my physical TBR. 5 On My TBR is a way of keeping track. This is a meme is hosted by E from Local Bee Hunter’s Nook. Every week there’s a different prompt for five on my TBR.

This week’s prompt is family. And I have to say it was pretty hard! I love found family books but I tried to not look at those as that feels like a different prompt. Family isn’t always mentioned in the synopsis so some of these are a bit of a gamble haha. Continue reading “5 On My TBR | Family” →
