Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a 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 January 2018 Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl.

This week’s topic is Books on My Spring 2026 To-Read List. Last week Candyce share her Spring 2026 To Read list and today it’s my turn. I don’t really make TBR’s for myself, but I do like to think about the books I would like to read. So let’s jump in! Continue reading “TTT #420 | Books on My Spring 2026 To-Read List Part 2” →

Down the TBR Hole #168

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

After having one less book off of my want to read shelf at the start of my last post, we’re starting where we ended last time! It’s still progress!

Down the TBR Hole was originally created over at Lost in a Story. This meme is now being hosted by Jody from I’m Into Books. 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!

So of course Babel has been on my TBR since it was released. And now I have finally read it! Obviously I wanted to share my thoughts on the book with you all. So let’s jump in!

Can’t Wait Wednesday | Dangerous Impulses – Jennifer Lynn Barnes

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 | Dangerous Impulses – Jennifer Lynn Barnes” →
