Checking Out the Library
There’s not a whole lot of new books from the library this week. However, I managed to snag next month’s book club pick. So far I’ve really enjoyed almost every book we’ve had to read. So we’ll see how it goes. I also had two more Book Shots come in. Maybe they’ll work out as […]
Checking Out the Library
There’s not a whole lot of new books from the library this week. However, the second of James Patterson’s book shots from my hold list has come in. I’m not sure if his book shots are meant to feature other authors, or if it’s meant to once again to be his co-authors. But this one […]
Checking Out the Library
I know it’s been a while since I’ve really added books to my hold list. But this past week, I decided I needed to add some cozy mysteries into my reading rotation. So I scoured Netgalley for books that would look interesting and the books I picked up this week are the first books in […]
Netgalley Update
In September of last year, I finally decided to really try and see if I could get approved for Netgalley books. I had had my account for a year and up to that point, the few times I’d requested a book, I had been declined. But after slowly and sporadically adding reviews to my blog, […]
Checking Out the Library
It’s a light week for checking out library books. But I’m okay with that. I’ve been making some headway on my checkouts and I’m trying to keep away from that “light at the end of the tunnel” syndrome. You know what I’m talking about. That moment when you realize your book list is dwindling down […]
Checking Out the Library
It’s been a busy week for me on the library front. I was finally able to make it back to book club. It’s been two months, but it was nice to see everyone again. This next month we’ll be reading What We Find by Robyn Carr. Once again, it doesn’t really look like something I […]
Checking Out the Library
As you may know, I am supposed to be starting graduate school this summer or fall (depends on my financial aid). However, I have the daunting task of taking and passing the Miller’s Analogies Test. Normally, I don’t let exams get to me, but if there’s one thing I’m not really good at it, it’s […]
Checking Out the Library
After a marathon of The Bible on Netflix last week as well as some of my more recent reads of historical fiction books featuring biblical females, I thought I would look to see what other books might be out there. I found that it was harder than I thought to find books about other females […]
Reliving My Childhood: Fear Street
Last year I decided the time had come to finally settle into reading some of my favorite books as a child. For years, a close friend of mine, Ashley and I have been discussing rereading all of The Baby-sitters Club and all the other series we enjoyed as children. But something last year, finally pushed […]
Checking Out the Library
My library hold list has dwindled down again. I have only one more book on hold. And that’s okay, because I have a lot of books that I have checked out, but haven’t had a chance to read yet. So while this week may be light, I am excited to say I will be focusing […]
