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. Today I wanted to share the beginning of The Girl With No Reflection. I got this eARC a while ago and I’m curious to get a first impression. Let’s jump in!

Review| This Vicious Grace – Emily Thiede
Do you ever pick up a book that’s a few years old and think, I should’ve read this sooner? I had this with This Vicious Grace. This book released in 2022, and I even have an eARC of it, but I finally sat down to read it. So today I want to tell you about this book and what I thought!
A big thank you to Netgalley and Wednesday Books for providing me with an eARC to read and review. This doesn’t affect my opinion in any way.

Wishlist Wednesday| Most Anticipated October 2024 Releases
It’s officially autumn, and that means it’s the best reading time of the year. Nothing beats curling up with a good book when it’s cold and rainy outside. Of course, you need books to do this. While both of us have plenty to read, it’s always fun to take a look at the releases to come. So today it’s time to talk about our most Anticipated October releases. Let’s take a look!

WWW Wednesday #70
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?
TTT #358 | Books on My Fall TBR Part 2
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 Fall TBR. Candyce already did a part 1 for this topic last week and today it’s my turn. I usually don’t make TBR’s but I actually did do one for fall about 2 weeks ago haha. There were only a couple of books on there so let’s see if I can do 10 books to do I would like to read the coming weeks. Let’s jump in! Continue reading “TTT #358 | Books on My Fall TBR Part 2”
5 On My TBR| Hello Autumn
As we’ve mentioned before, one of our most important reading goals of is shrinking our physical TBR’s. Sometimes it’s hard to think of what books we still have or what subjects to read about. So we needed a way to keep track of this. 5 On My TBR is a way of keeping track. This is a meme hosted by E from Local Bee Hunter’s Nook. Every week there’s a different prompt for five on my TBR.
This week’s topic is Hello Autumn! We’re definitely heading into my favorite time of year. For me autumn reads tend to be fantasy books and mysteries/thrillers. So here are five “autumn” reads I have on my TBR.
Royal Update #242
We thought it was time for a fun new post every week. In the Royal Update one of us updates you about our personal life, bookish news, what we’re reading, watching and listening to and anything else that might apply to this post. We thought it would be fun to share a bit more about our personal lives and hope you think so too!

Down the TBR Hole #135
At the moment, I’m actually working ahead on the blog, so it’s only been a week since I wrote my last Down the TBR Hole post. Since then nothing has changed.
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!
Bookish Item | Trying Kindle Unlimited
You might recall that I recently got a Kindle Paperwhite and I couldn’t be happier with it. I have been reading on it a lot and it works perfectly. While I never thought I would say this, I wanted to try Kindle Unlimited. After seeing it mentioned more and more on TikTok I decided to look into it. Let’s dive into my first thoughts!

Bookish Item| What I Read In a Week (While On Vacation) Part 2
A little while ago, I wrote a post about what I read in a week. It’s always interesting to see how much I actually read, so I decided to do it again. This time I tracked my reading for a whole week while I was on vacation. I wanted to see if I’d read a lot more without working during the week, so let’s see what I read last week!
