Bookish Item | Book Beginnings on Fridays

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

Do you ever just not know what to post about? Normally I have tons of ideas floating around my mind for these bookish items. Today I don’t have the lightbulb lighting for me. So I decide to participate in Book Beginning on Fridays. This meme was created by Rose City Reader.

The idea is to post the first sentence or so of the book you’re currently reading. After that you talk about your initial thoughts about the sentence, book or anything to do with that. I don’t know how often I will do this, but it seems like fun from time to time.

WARNING:  We are continuing with our Throne of Glass week, which means if you haven’t read this series yet, you could encounter spoilers in this post!

TTT #50| Villains

Published on by The Book Dutchesses1 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 last January Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl.

Today’s prompt is Villains. It would be pretty easy to think of ten bookish villains, but I decided to change this a bit. Seeing how we are having a bit of a Throne of Glass week, I am going to do villains from this series in my list this week. WARNING: For people who haven’t read this series yet, there could be some spoilers!

In between reading some spooky Halloween books, I read another Christmas book. Twelve Nights of Christmas: A Holiday Anthology is filled with twelve short stories by multiple authors. An anthology can be tricky, because some stories can be better then others.

I loved what this anthology was for though and enjoyed myself while reading the stories. Today you can see what I thought of all twelve stories!

Tomorrow is release day for Kingdom of Ash, the final installment of Throne of Glass! This blog wouldn’t even be here without this series, so it’s something special to us. All week this week we will have some type of ToG related post come online.

In April we decided to start our reread of this series and read The Assassin’s Blade. We posted our review at the end of the month, but that’s when we decided we wanted to do a theme week in October. So we are once again posting the same review to kick off release week of the last book in this amazing series!
