Book Beginnings on Friday isn’t a prompt that I’ve done in awhile, so I decided to give it another go.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. I don’t know how often I will do this, but it seems like fun from time to time.

Let’s take a look at those books! Continue reading “Bookish Item | Adult Fantasy TBR”
Netgalley is an amazing platform for bloggers. They give you a chance to get ARCs from upcoming books. So far I’ve read a lot of amazing books early. Today I want to look at my Netgalley backlist. They recommend a feedback rate of 80%. I’m a little over 60%, but there are some books I’ve had since I started my account over a year ago!
After looking at the books I’ve read so far this year, I realized that I have only done one re-read! Seeing how that is one of my goals this year, I need to talk about the books I need to re-read soon!

I have always been a mood reader and in many ways I still am. Recently, I’ve noticed that I have been planning what to read ahead of time. This is really easy, because I do have a schedule when it comes to blog tours, etc.
So I decided for the month of February, I would try and make a TBR. Today I want to show you what I decided to read this month. At the beginning of March, I want to look back and see if this helped at all and if I completed my TBR. If it works, I may need to do this more often!
I think by now everyone has seen the Marie Kondo meme regarding owning only 30 books. And I think we also all know that number was just a personal preference for her but you can imagine how the bookish community reacted to all of this 😉 I can see where she is coming from, Marie wants to make us more aware of our clutter and take a good look at all the stuff we own. ‘Does this spark joy?’ is her go to question to determine if something stays or goes, and I like that a lot! In the wake of this funny meme some booktubers made videos wherein they picked which books they would keep ‘if i only owned 30 books’. I thought this was a really funded and would love to attempt this today as well! Continue reading “Bookish Item | If I Only Owned 30 Books….”
A little bit later than planned but in this bookish item I want to show you all some of the series I would like to finish this year. I made a spreadsheet of all the series I’m currently reading, or better said, the series I started but never completed. There are over 60 series I have started that I also plan on finishing. This year one of my reading goals is once again to finish 12 series. So let’s take a look at a couple of the series I plan on finishing this year. I only mention 6 because I know I won’t be able to stick to 12 pre set series, but these have priority! Continue reading “Bookish Item | Series I Want to Finish in 2019”
