Published on by The Book Dutchesses1 Comment

When I’m writing this I have just 24 hours left until I leave for my trip to the Hungarian Grand Prix and when this comes online I will already be there! We’re going by car so there aren’t any weight restrictions to my luggage, but we’re three people in my small car so I still can’t bring that much. Of course I’ll be bringing my Kindle, but I also want to bring some physical books. And I find it very hard to decide which ones to bring haha. Right now I have 5 books that are a possibility, so I’ll be sharing those with you all. Let’s take a look! Continue reading “Bookish Item | Books I’m Bringing on My Trip” →

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.

It’s that time of the month again that I talk about the books I’m hoping to read next month. I’ve said this many times before, but I rarely stick to my TBR except when it comes to book clubs/group reads. I love talking about books I’m excited about at the moment, but I still let my mood lead. So let’s talk about my July TBR!

Bookish Item| What I Read in a Week Part 1

Published on by The Book Dutchesses1 Comment

A trend I see a lot on TikTok and even bookstagram is that people show and tell us what they read in a week. Even though it won’t be as visual as a reel or video on TikTok, I thought it would be fun to track my reading for a week (I do anyways, because I track how many pages I read a day).

So here is what I read the week of June 3rd – June 9th. Let’s take a look at what I read last week!
