5 On My TBR| Romance

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 romance. This is going to be one of the easiest topics for this meme, because my go to genre tends to be romance. Here are five that I hope to read really soon!

Review| Belladonna – Adalyn Grace

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

Belladonna is a book that has received a lot of hype since releasing in 2022. I even grabbed an eARC of this book when it was read now on Netgalley. When a book is really hyped, I tend to be careful, because I’m afraid the hype is going to get my expectations too high. That wasn’t the case with this book and I’m mad a myself for taking so long to read it. So I finally did and want to talk about it, so keep on reading for more!

A big thank you to Netgalley and Little Brown for providing me with an eARC to read and review. This didn’t influence my opinion in any way.

Published on by The Book Dutchesses5 Comments

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 a love freebie. I decided to go with populair romances I want to read. Goodreads recently published a list of the 100 most popular romances of the past 3 years and it looks like I read exactely 3 books from that list haha. There were also funnily 10 books I already marked as want to read. So I thought they would be perfect for this list! Continue reading “TTT #328 | Populair Romances I Want to Read” →

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

Still Beating released in 2020, but it’s a book I still keep hearing about three years later.

Keep on reading to find out what Still Beating is about and what I thought!

This book does get pretty dark, so if you have a hard time reading about certain things, definitely look up the warnings.

A big thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for providing me with this eARC.
