Can’t Wait Wednesday | Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil – V.E. Schwab

Published on 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 Breaking the Spine. Continue reading “Can’t Wait Wednesday | Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil – V.E. Schwab” →

TTT #348| Books On My TBR I Predict Will Be 5-Star Reads

Published on by The Book Dutchesses6 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 throwback freebie, so I get to choose a topic I haven’t done or want to do again. I’ve decided to revisit books on my TBR I predict will be 5-star reads. I recently did a five star prediction post, but they’re always fun to do! Let’s take a look at some of my predictions.

It’s that time of the month again where we take a look at our bookhauls from a year ago. We add books to our collections, but the question remains: do we read what we buy? That’s why we decided to do a looking back at our bookhauls post every month. Today we’re looking back at our June 2023 bookhaul! Let’s take a look.

Show Sunday | My Lady Jane

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

I already mentioned it in Friday’s post but this past week I have been watching the My Lady Jane tv show on Prime Video. Somehow I completely missed that this show was coming at all but I saw a couple of people post about it and I turned on my tv as fast as I could. I adore the My Lady Jane book so of course I wanted to see the show, but I was also a bit scared. Let’s see if the show lived up to what I hoped it would be!

Review| A Fate Inked in Blood – Danielle L. Jensen

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

A Fate Inked in Blood has been on my radar since it was announced and I was so excited when I received an eARC. I always have issues reading things on time for some reason, but I’m actually mad at myself for taking so long to read this one. I finally did though, so keep on reading to find our more about this book and what I thought!

A big thank you to Del Rey and Netgalley for my eARC to read and review. This doesn’t change my opinion in any way.

We have a lot of eARC’s and we want to promote them a little bit more. So we decided to do some more Bookish Beginnings On Friday.

This is one of my most recent eARC’s and especially after watching My Lady Jane on Prime Video I can’t wait to dive in. I loved the previous books by these ladies and I have high hopes for this one. Let’s take a look! Continue reading “Bookish Beginnings on Friday | My Salty Mary – Cynthia Hand, Brodi Ashton & Jodi Meadows” →

WWW Wednesday #65

Published on by The Book Dutchesses1 Comment

It’s Wednesday, so time for a new WWW Wednesday to talk about my reading progress and plans. I really love these posts and talking more about what I’m reading before the monthly wrap up. Even if my reading plans change I like thinking about what I’m going to read!

So it’s time for my next WWW Wednesday. This is a weekly meme hosted by Taking On a World of Words and you participate by simply answering three questions:

  • What did you recently finish reading?
  • What are you currently reading?
  • What do you think you’ll read next?
