It’s time for a post I have made multiple times before! I’m about to go on another trip to France for the coming 2 weeks and of course I am packing some books. Yes, I am bringing my Kindle so I’ll have a ton of books with me, but I also like to take some physical books with me. And today I wanted to share which ones those will be with you all, so let’s jump in! Continue reading “Bookish Item | Books I’m Bringing to France 2025”

Can’t Wait Wednesday | The Invisible Parade – Leigh Bardugo & John Picacio
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 | The Invisible Parade – Leigh Bardugo & John Picacio”
Bookish Item| TBR Cards Choose My Next 5 eARC Reads Part 2
As a blogger and bookstagrammer, I’m very grateful for the eARCs I’m approved for. It’s such a great opportunity to read books early and help promote authors.

So today, I want to give my Netgalley eARCs some more attention, so I’m letting my TBR cards choose my next 5 eARC reads. Let’s take a look!

Show Sunday | The Diplomat
After coming home from my 5-day trip I just wanted to sit on the couch and watch a fun show. I thought it was time for season 2 of Wednesday, but unfortunately we have to wait a couple more days. So I started browsing Netflix for something else and that is when I saw The Diplomat in my To Watch list. I decided to give it a go and 6 episodes later here we are!
