Everyone has secrets to hide — some more devastating than others. In each of this week's books, our main characters question what to hide, who to trust, and when it is necessary to face the truth. And each of them handles it in a different way, by running, by pretending, or by marching straight ahead … Continue reading Reading Roundup #44: A Study in Secrets
Happy Monday! .... If there is such a thing. Frankly, I have my doubts, but if there's one thing that can always make a crummy day better, it's thinking about my favorite books. And since it's November, I'm already starting to think about some of my favorite winter rereads. Like many readers, I find comfort … Continue reading Four Annual Rereads
When I tell you this was a great week for reading, I mean it was a great week for reading. These books are about the lengths to which we'll go to protect ourselves and those important to us – and the people who are right there with us through it all. If you're looking for … Continue reading Reading Roundup #43: Sneakin’ Around With You
Ah-ha! Thought I was skipping the Roundup this week, did you? Well, I'm not! Honestly, I just got busy with work this week and forgot about it until today. But we're here now, and I'm happy to report it was a great week for reading. We've got a good dose of romance, of course, plus … Continue reading Reading Roundup #42: Fantasies Makes the World Go ‘Round
As you'll see from this post's title, I'm trying something new – a "No Buy, No Borrow November." The No Buy part of that is an attempt to reign in my book-spending a bit after treating myself and also doing some early Christmas shopping this October. And that, combined with the No Borrow, is also … Continue reading No Buy, No Borrow November
It's a surprisingly – and delightfully – spooky week, here at Book It With Becca, as ghosts of the past refuse to stay dead, whether literally or figuratively. Between Halloween approaching and a cool change in the weather, it's the perfect time to pick up one of these ghostly tales! The Ghost Bride by Yangsze … Continue reading Reading Roundup #41: Spooks and Spectres
If there's one thing that reliably complicates war and politics, it's love, as our leads find out this week. Maybe your new partner is the mortal enemy of your father... or maybe he's just a messianic figure, leading your people into a new age (I think that'd be complicated, right?). Or maybe she's just a … Continue reading Reading Roundup #40: Passion & Politics
Hello, lovelies! I didn't intend to take a blogging break last week, but life happened, and I just decided to go easy on myself. I also did not get much reading done to talk about, either, so that worked out, ha. However, I did get to lay in bed watching favorite movies and catching up … Continue reading Blogger Stats Book Tag
I visited family this past weekend, and while I love them, they do interfere with my reading! It's rather unsettling actually. I need my alone time! 😂 But I'm safely ensconced in my own little apartment once more, and I did manage to sneak in some good books last week and in the past couple … Continue reading Reading Roundup #39: Closing Chapters
We're taking a few dark turns, this week – some humorous and some horrific – and it's a roaring, adventurous good time. But the true thread running through it all is actually family: the ones who stick by you, the ones who hurt you, and, most important, the family you choose for yourself. Sometimes that … Continue reading Reading Roundup #38: All in the Family
