5 On My TBR| Loss Part 2

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

As I’ve mentioned before, one of my important reading goals of 2023 is shrinking my physical TBR. Sometimes it’s hard to think of what books I still have or subjects I want 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 actually warriors, but I wasn’t feeling that this week. So I decided to go for last week’s topic: loss. Here are five books on my TBR about loss.

Down the TBR Hole #114

Published on by The Book Dutchesses1 Comment

Once again I can proudly say I haven’t added any books to my want to read shelf and even read one off of this shelf since my last Down the TBR Hole post.

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!

I’ve finally finished a book again! After browsing through some audiobook options I came across Godsgrave and gave it a try. It’s become the first book I finished in almost 6 weeks. You can probably guess if it was enjoyable haha, but let’s take a look at my thoughts anyways. Continue reading “Review | Godsgrave – Jay Kristoff” →

Bookish Item| 2024 Releases I’ll Be Pre-Ordering

Published on by The Book Dutchesses2 Comments

Not too long ago Isabelle made a post about books that she plans on pre-ordering. I thought this was a fun idea, because I plan on ordering a few of my most anticipated 2024 releases. Next year I’m going to try and focus more on my backlist and only get what I know I’m reading right away!

Can’t Wait Wednesday | My Salty Mary – Cynthia Hand, Brodi Ashton & Jodi Meadows

Published on by The Book Dutchesses4 Comments

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 | My Salty Mary – Cynthia Hand, Brodi Ashton & Jodi Meadows” →

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 Mainstream Popular Authors that I Still Have Not Read. I’m going to also add indie authors to this list that have become quite popular through TikTok or other ways online. Let’s take a look!

This week’s topic is Loss. I don’t have any books that come to mind right away, although I guess a lot of fantasy books deal with loss as well. So let’s take a look and see which ones I can find on my shelves! Continue reading “5 On My TBR | Loss” →
