Bookish Beginnings on Friday | A Taste of Gold and Iron – Alexandra Rowland

Published on by The Book Dutchesses2 Comments

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. A Taste of Gold and Iron has been a book I see a lot on bookstagram lately and I was lucky to get an e-arc. It’s a bigger book and I’m hoping to read it during my vacation later this month, so I wanted to talk about this book.

This meme was created by Rose City Reader. The idea is to post the first sentence or so of the book you’re currently reading. After that you talk about your initial thoughts about the sentence, book or anything to do with that.

One of my reading goals this year is to finish 12 series. That doesn’t seem likely as I’ve only finished one series I already started reading before 2022 so far. But I’m about to finish a second series and I thought that would be the perfect time so take a look at the series I might reasonably finish this year. Let’s jump in!

Bookish Item | September TBR

Published on by The Book Dutchesses2 Comments

We’re near the end of the month, so it’s time to look at what I want to read in September. I’m definitely going to be very ambitious, because September 16th is my last day of work for three weeks. It’s vacation time for me, so I’m hoping to get LOTS of reading done. Keep on reading for my September TBR (which might continue a bit into October with my vacation).

Published on by The Book Dutchesses2 Comments

Isabelle did a Can’t Wait Wednesday post for Seton Girls and it’s also a book I’m really interested in. I recently got the e-arc and I’ll be posting an interview with the author soon, so it’s definitely a great time to do another post for this book. 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.
