Happy belated new year! I didn't have anything to post in a roundup last week because I was too busy to read for a while — and because I'd just embarked on three loooong books. Which I still haven't finished (and likely won't for a few weeks, if not months). But I did manage to … Continue reading Reading Roundup #90: New Year, New (to Me) Stories
What a great reading week! Not only did I devour some excellent romances, but I continued with the Penric & Desdemona series, which only gets better and better. Did I say I was going to make these last? Ha! I was delusional. Anyway, this week, the commonality is that all our protagonists must meet each … Continue reading Reading Roundup #89: Leap of Faith
I don't know about you, but the few months of the year always fly by for me. I'll put something off for a couple days and look up to realize weeks have now passed! But I'm back now and happy to share some more great books. On the surface, they all look wildly different, but … Continue reading Reading Roundup #88: Inner Voices
Starting back to work after a gloriously lazy vacation means I'm back to tired and overwhelmed by all the interaction with people (there are so many!). But at least I still have good books! So, this is just a quick pop-in to share a few favorite from the past couple weeks. Hopefully, I will be … Continue reading Reading Roundup #87: Better Than Reality
It's another light reading week, but what a good one! Three new-to-me books are going directly onto my list of favorites I'll reread again and again. The cool weather continues in my area, and I'm loving curling up under the blankets with a cup of tea and a good book. I hope this trend continue, … Continue reading Reading Roundup #85: New Favorites
There is no joy quite like sharing a book with a friend, and this week was chock full of recommendations and book talk with dear ones. And not only did it lead to lots of fun but to a few new favorites, as well! A Lady Awakened (Blackshear Family #1) by Cecilia Grant: I have … Continue reading Reading Roundup #77: With a Little Help From My Friends
This week, our protagonists struggle with their finer and more monstrous instincts, seeking peace in the face of difficult circumstances. Each has their own demons (some more literal than others) and pushes the reader to ask, "Who is worthy of love and happiness? And what price are we willing to pay for these things?" Sophie … Continue reading Reading Roundup #76: Heroes & Villains
I'm back! Usually I don't make a big deal about it if I drop off for a week, but this time I am because I am back in multiple senses! Back with good books and back mentally. Last week was a rough one, as I was dealing with health stuff and just too tired to … Continue reading Reading Roundup #73: Some of It Was Good
I threw myself into reading this week and was rewarded with a full shelf of good books, ranging from wholesome slice-of-life to magical horror. Most of what I have to say about these tales are in the reviews themselves, so let's get to it. The Undaunted (A Series of Worthy Young Ladies #3) by Kate … Continue reading Reading Roundup #70: Boys & Girls, Kings & Queens
As a reader, I take the words of Jane Austen for my motto: 'I always deserve the best treatment because I never put up with any other." I deserve good books and will accept nothing less — and if I have to, I'll rant about what I and fictional characters deserve until I find it! … Continue reading Reading Roundup #69: Nothing but the Best
