TTT #232 | Authors I Haven’t Read, But Want To

Published on by The Book Dutchesses10 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 Authors I Haven’t Read, But Want To. I really like that topic and have done something similar in the past. Today I tried to keep it to 10 authors I already have on my shelf but haven’t read yet. Let’s get into it! Continue reading “TTT #232 | Authors I Haven’t Read, But Want To” →

Bookish Item | Tor.com Short Stories

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

I recently read The Angel of Khan el-Khalili by P. Djèlí Clark, a short story in the Dead Djinn Universe. A little while ago I also read A Dead Djinn in Caïro and I have been a fan of P. Djèlí Clark ever since. But I’ve also been interested in the Tor.com short stories. So today I wanted to talk about that a little more!

Bookish Item| April TBR

Published on by The Book Dutchesses2 Comments

It’s hard to believe that today is already the last day of March. I feel like I was just sitting down to talk about the books I wanted to read in March. But seeing how it’s the last day of the month it’s time to talk about what I want to read in April! So keep on reading to see what books are on my April TBR.

WWW Wednesday #5

Published on by The Book Dutchesses1 Comment

I never thought I’d like writing reading updates as much as I do, so it’s definitely something I’ll be doing every other week. I can’t believe it’s already been two weeks!

So it’s time for the first WWW Wednesday. This is a weekly meme hosted by Taking On a World of Words and you participate by simply answering three questions:

  • What did you recently finish reading?
  • What are you currently reading?
  • What do you think you’ll read next?

TTT #230 | Book Titles That Ask Questions

Published on by The Book Dutchesses9 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 21st Century Books I Think Will Become Classics but I wasn’t really feeling that one to be honest. So I decided to look at some of the older topics and Book Titles That Ask Questions did speak to me! Let’s see which books I picked. Continue reading “TTT #230 | Book Titles That Ask Questions” →

5 On My TBR| Owned for 2 Years Part 2

Published on by The Book Dutchesses3 Comments

After looking back at my 2018 bookhauls to see what I’ve read I decided it may be a good idea to do the same 5 On My TBR as Isabelle last week. She talked about 5 books that she’s owned for 2 years, but hasn’t read. So I decided to give that a go as well! 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 published before 2000. I honestly don’t have many unread books on my shelves published before that year. That’s why I decided to do the same topic as Isabelle. Let’s talk about 5 books I’ve owned for 2 years, but still haven’t read!

5 On My TBR | Owned for 2 Years

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

Tracking your TBR is pretty important when it’s quite large, haha. Besides Down the TBR Hole and my Netgalley Backlist we needed something to track my physical TBR. 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 a Happy 2 Years of #5OnMyTBR Freebie! So I decided to go for books that have been on my TBR for at least 2 years. There were more to choose from than I’d like to admit haha. I have 5 books I got in March 2020, so I’ve owned those for almost exactly 2 years now! Let’s see which ones those are. Continue reading “5 On My TBR | Owned for 2 Years” →

WWW Wednesday #4

It’s been two weeks since my last WWW Wednesday, so it’s time for a new one. I’ve read quite a bit since then, so I won’t be talking about all of the books I’ve read, but only a few.

So it’s time for the first WWW Wednesday. This is a weekly meme hosted by Taking On a World of Words and you participate by simply answering three questions:

  • What did you recently finish reading?
  • What are you currently reading?
  • What do you think you’ll read next?

WWW Wednesday #3

Published on by The Book Dutchesses1 Comment

It’s been two weeks and I’ve decided it was time again for another WWW Wednesday. I’ve read quite a few books since my last post, so I won’t mention them all today. Our February wrap up comes online later today, so it would be a bit much to talk about all of them twice.

So it’s time for the first WWW Wednesday. This is a weekly meme hosted by Taking On a World of Words and you participate by simply answering three questions:

  • What did you recently finish reading?
  • What are you currently reading?
  • What do you think you’ll read next?

Bookish Item| March TBR

Published on by The Book Dutchesses4 Comments

Okay, so we all know that I’m really bad at sticking to the monthly TBRs I make. I still love making lists of books I’m hoping to read and am really excited about. I have 16 days off in March (took some vacation time), so I should be able to get quite a bit of reading done. So let’s take a look at my hopefuls for my March TBR.
