Down the TBR Hole #140

It’s been about a month since I did a Down the TBR Hole post, so it’s a good time to check in again. Since my last post, I have two books less on my Goodreads want to read shelf. It’s not a lot of progress, but it’s something.

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!

Review | The Awakening – Caroline Peckham & Susanne Valenti

My first Kindle Unlimited book I read was The Awakening by Caroline Peckham and Susanne Valenti. Candyce already did a review of this book, but that was almost 3 years ago, so I figured I could do one now as well. So let’s jump in!

Bookish Item| 2025 Reading Goals Part 1

It’s hard to believe it’s actually time to be writing a post about my 2025 reading goals. I feel like a broken record saying that 2024 flew by, but it really did. 2024 has been a great reading year for me, and I’ve read the most I’ve ever read in a year. So I’m hoping 2025 is going to be just as amazing if not even more so, so let’s take a look at my reading goals.

Hobby Hub | Diamond Painting Taylor Swift

I recently started sharing some more about some of my (creative) hobbies. And today I wanted to share something really fun! Last week was Sinterklaas here in the Netherlands and from one of the kids in my class I got Taylor Swift diamond painting coasters. Say that 3 times fast ;). And of course I started working on them right away! Let’s take a look! Continue reading “Hobby Hub | Diamond Painting Taylor Swift” →

Can’t Wait Wednesday | The Grimoire Grammar School Parent Teacher Association – Caitlin Rozakis

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 Grimoire Grammar School Parent Teacher Association – Caitlin Rozakis” →

TTT #369| Books to Read During a Storm

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 to read during a storm! I tend to either love dark atmospheric books or cozy and heartwarming books while it’s storming outside. Here are ten books I’ve been saving to read during a storm!

Show Sunday | First Impression: Dune: Prophecy

As you might know, I love the Dune movies (and really need to continue reading the books). The TV show Dune: Prophecy was one of my most anticipated shows of the year, so when my brother called me to remind me the first episode dropped a couple of weeks ago, I immediately started watching it. And after the first couple of episodes are available to watch, I wanted to share my first impression of the show. So let’s jump in!

Review| Best Hex Ever – Nadia El-Fassi

Even though I’m in full Christmas mood, I couldn’t resist reading this cozy book. Best Hex Ever is the type of book that leaves you feeling like you’ve received a warm hug. Today it’s time for me to tell you about this book and what I thought.

A big thank you to Netgalley and Dell for providing me with an eARC to read and review. This affects my opinion in no way at all!
