One of my reading goals this year is to get my Netgalley feedback ratio up to 80%. It’s the end of October and I’m still at 62% as I’m typing this, haha. So it’s not going exactly as planned. I’ve talked about my Netgalley Backlist before (Part 1 was written by Isabelle and Part 2 has been posted by me in July) and I thought it was time to make another post. Remind myself about the books I need to get to. Let’s take a look!

Bookish Item| It’s Monday, What Am I Reading? #4
After looking around to find a new meme for Monday, I stumbled upon: Monday, What am I reading? This is kind of like Whatcha Reading Wednesday, but it fits better today. This meme is hosted by Book Date!
So let’s take a look at what I recently read and what I am reading now and what I am going to pick up during this week.

Bookish Item | Challenging Myself to Read Big Books
I’ve talked about my ‘fear’ of reading big books before and I want to talk about it some more today! While I usually love the big books I read, I also have trouble picking them up haha. They can be so intimidating! I love watching Emily Fox on Youtube and she started doing a big books challenge in 2018 (I think that’s when she started). She puts 12 big books in a mug and picks one each month to read. And I figured why not do something similar? Continue reading “Bookish Item | Challenging Myself to Read Big Books”
TTT #97 | Books On My TBR I’m Avoiding Reading Part 2
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 Favorite Things to Eat/Drink While Reading and honestly, that really isn’t my thing. I almost always drink tea and I think it will be pretty boring if I just listed my ten favorite tea flavors haha. So I decided to go for last weeks topic and share my top ten Books On My TBR I’m Avoiding. Let’s get into it! Continue reading “TTT #97 | Books On My TBR I’m Avoiding Reading Part 2”
Looking Back At Our Bookhauls | August 2018
Every month we add books to our collections, but we’ve been curious about how much of them we actually read. In Looking Back at Our Bookhauls, we take a look at our hauls from the year before. What have we read and what do we still need to read? We hope this motivates us more to get to our unread books and maybe buy a little less. Even if this doesn’t always work, haha. Today we’re looking back at our book hauls from August 2018!

Bookish Item| 20 Books I Want to Read Before 2020 Part 2
Last week Isabelle posted her 20 Books to Read Before 2020 and this got me thinking. We’re close to starting the last four months of the year and there are definitely some books I still really need to read. Since we’ve started this blog I’ve not really been good at completing my lists, but I’m giving it another go. So today is 20 Books I want to Read Before 2020 Part 2.

Bookish Item | Unhaul
Now this is a post I have never made before and I don’t think it will happen a lot after this one either. But I got some new bookshelves and I thought it was the perfect opportunity to get rid of some books I didn’t like and ones I don’t think I will ever read. So this is my very first unhaul! As you might have read last week, I did the Try A Chapter Book Tag to try and get rid of some books. Check that one out if you haven’t yet and come back here to see what books I’m unhauling today! Let’s dive in. Continue reading “Bookish Item | Unhaul”
TTT #85 | Books On My Summer 2019 TBR
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 Books On My Summer 2019 TBR. As you all might know, I don’t really set TBR’s for myself. However, I do have a bunch of books I plan on reading asap, or at least this summer. So today I’ll show 10 of the books I plan on reading this summer. Let’s get into it! Continue reading “TTT #85 | Books On My Summer 2019 TBR”
Bookish Item | Books I Want To Reread This Year
Candyce showed you all a couple of the books she wants to reread this year a little while ago, and I thought it would be fun to share my list as well. We both have rereading as a goal this year, but I’ve only managed to reread 3 books so far. In the last couple of months I haven’t reread a single book but hopefully that will change soon! Let’s take a look at some of the books I want to reread this year. Continue reading “Bookish Item | Books I Want To Reread This Year”
Bookish Item | Middle Grade May TBR
Candyce and I were planning on doing another Middle Grade May this month. And as it turned out the TBR and Beyond Facebook group we’re both part off is doing Middle Grade May as group reading challenge this month. So this is working out perfectly! I’m super excited to pick up some of the wonderful middle grade reads I have on my TBR and can’t wait to fall in love with those stories and characters. After a quick look at my shelves I had quite some books to pick from. So today I wanted to show which ones I’m most likely to read this month. Without further ado; my Middle Grade May TBR!
