Yesterday Isabelle kicked off our lists of favorite 2020 reads with her favorite graphic novels/manga. Today I’m going to also talk about a favorite reads list, but today it’s the romance edition. In 2020 I read 83 romances (young adult & adult)! It was a hard choice to make, because 70 of these books were rated 4 stars or higher. Let’s take a look at my top 10 favorites!

As I’ve mentioned a few times the past few months I’ve been in a really weird reading mood lately. To try and change this, I want to go back to a bit of mood reading. That being said, I still want to talk about my January TBR. I don’t know if I’ll read all of these, but these are the books that I’m looking forward to at the moment. Keep on reading to see my TBR!
Since we started this blog we’ve posted our reading goals for the year (see our 2020 reading goals we’ll be evaluating in January here). Reading should always be fun, but we love challenging ourselves. So keep on reading if you want to know more about our 2021 reading goals!
Two weeks ago I talked about the 2021 Beat the Backlist Bingo and posted my possible TBR for the first half of the prompts (2021 Beat the Backlist Bingo Part 1). There are 52 prompts, so there was too much to put into one post. So today I’m back with part 2. Let’s take a look at the last 26 prompts for this book bingo.

We’re at the beginning of December, so it’s time (for me at least) to start thinking about reading goals for next year. My backlist is one that has been on my reading goals list for the past few years and could still be a lot less than it is now. I’ve done better at reading backlist books though this year (even though only 19 of them were on my shelf before the beginning of the year).
I recently saw the announcement for Beat the Backlist Bingo 2021. There are options for a 24 or 52 prompt bingo. So two books a month or one a week. I’m going to be a bit ambitious and go for the 52 bingo. So here’s part 1 of my possible TBR of this bingo. Keep on reading to find out more!

I can’t believe I’m already thinking about what I want to read the last month of this year! In many ways 2020 has flown by, but it’s also gone by incredibly slow. Hopefully 2021 turns out to be an amazing for everyone! But first let’s talk about what I want to read next month in my December TBR!
Candyce and I wrote a couple of blogposts about the book series we are reading or really want to read. And I thought it would be fun to take a look at some of the series I’m reading and are actually caught up with! When I came up with this idea, I was caught up with a lot more than I am currently… To be honest, I’m afraid to look haha. Let’s look together!
I only picked series with at least two books published! Continue reading “Bookish Item | Current Series I’m Caught Up With”
Since we’ve been blogging I’ve seen different posts where bloggers let their boyfriends choose their TBR. I thought it was a fun idea, but never gave it a try. I saw another post recently and decided to give it a go. So here’s the first time my boyfriend chose my TBR. Let’s take a look!
Isabelle and I were talking recently about our Netgalley books. I still have to review so many and I’m failing terribly at my goal to get my feedback ratio to 80% this year. That’s when I started things about the books I’ve got on Netgalley and need to read. I already own a lot of these physically now as well. Let’s take a look at which ones have already appeared on my shelves before reading my e-arc! Hopefully this will motivate me to prioritize these.

My reading month in October turned out completely different than planned. A lot of my TBR was thrown out the window. I’ve noticed the pressure of reading for deadlines was starting to get to me and I need to let that go a bit. So my November TBR still has a few ARCs, but I’ll be reading a bit more freely as well. I’m letting myself be more of a mood reader, so let’s see what my November plan will be.
