After taking a week off (o, life, why must you interfere with books?), we're back with a vengeance! I finished the "Troubleshooters" series, finally checked out a book a friend's been recommending since forever, and immersed myself in historical mysteries and high adventure. In short, I had a lot of fun. The Gentleman and the … Continue reading Reading Roundup #9: The Lies of Gentlemen and Thieves

Reading Roundup #7: Can You Do the Fandango?
Why yes, we have been busy this week! The best thing about work holidays is all the reading time! And with the exception of a Bridgerton marathon on Christmas day, I didn't waste a minute of reading time (not that watching Bridgerton was a waste, of course). We've got an old favorite in the ranks … Continue reading Reading Roundup #7: Can You Do the Fandango?
Reading Roundup #5: It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like… Cressmouth?
As promised, we've got some more variety this week! I'm still working my way through the "Troubleshooters," but I also dipped my toe into fantasy and even horror.

Once Upon a Duke by Erica Ridley: I'd heard good things about this one, but I'll be honest – … Continue reading Reading Roundup #5: It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like… Cressmouth?

Mother Nature decided to usher in the new month with a cold snap, so I've been huddled up inside with hot soup, soft blankets, and cozy romance novels – including a couple of Christmas books! But don't worry, it didn't get too warm and fuzzy in here because I balanced it out … Continue reading Reading Roundup #3: Christmas With the Rakes
Reading Roundup #2: Scandalous Highwaymen? Right Ho, Readers!
This week saw a little more variety than last time's romance extravaganza, but never fear! Still plenty of stolen kisses and scandals in this edition! I also finished one series and... accidentally started another with no end in sight. Oops! Probably appropriate, though, given the book. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this week's fare as … Continue reading Reading Roundup #2: Scandalous Highwaymen? Right Ho, Readers!
Reading Roundup #1: Rakes, Highlanders, and… Open Mic Poetry?
Welcome to the first Reading Roundup! This is where I share my mini rants and raves about the books I don't review at length. I've been on a historical romance binge lately, so expect to see several of those in this post – and next time, as well, unless my mood changes! First up! Tessa … Continue reading Reading Roundup #1: Rakes, Highlanders, and… Open Mic Poetry?
