Musings on Books to Video Games and Everything In Between
I said April was going to be the month of the Chaos TBR, and it certainly lived up to the name! While I planned to read an equal amount of backlist and new releases, panic about my ARC pile set in and I ended up doing a flurry of reading to try and clear out... Continue Reading →
March was an EXTREMELY good reading month for me! I read a whopping 8 books, an accomplishment aided by the fact that I was in the middle of two already when the month began, but still incredibly good for me nonetheless. I knocked out a surprising number of series this month (more below) and made... Continue Reading →
The first month of 2024 was all over the place for a lot of reasons, and yet I finished seven books in January! That was likely aided by the fact that I was halfway through three different books when the year started. Still, I'm proud of what I accomplished, especially given that a lot of... Continue Reading →
After a couple of record months, my reading has settled back down: five books read, halfway through a sixth. I was pleased I knocked out almost everything on my planned TBR, with the exception of making progress on the POWDER MAGE series as originally hoped. But that will have to wait (unless fate demands otherwise),... Continue Reading →
Another great month in reading! I managed to knock out seven books and a short story, including a new contender for Top 5 Book of the year. Which brings to my attention that it's getting close to the time of year when I start pulling together my short list for end of year writing... Next... Continue Reading →
Well I certainly made up for August! After big books slowed down my overall pace of reading, I spent September reading the last 100 pages of one book, completed 6 other books, and made it 2/3 of the way through another! And considering one of those completed books was my audiobook reread of WORDS OF... Continue Reading →
Slow month for me, which I feel like happens every August as summer winds down. It didn't help that I had a lot of THICK books this month. On the whole though, while I "only" read 4 books, I'm 3/4 of the way through another massive book that I should finish in the next day... Continue Reading →
Welcome to July, the month where historically all of my carefully laid reading plans go completely out the window; this year is no exception. I'm not sure what it is about this month that derails things so thoroughly. Is it the presence of Comic Con, which eats up 4-5 days of reading, as well as... Continue Reading →
June was a bit of a haphazard month for reading. I tried to knock some ARCs out with plans to have a more ARC-free reading month in July, and I was...mediumly successful on that front. After five months of being on top of things, I've officially fallen behind on my ARC pile. It was a... Continue Reading →
I had grand ambitions for this month, and the results were a bit of a mixed bag. I read 6 books, two of which were spontaneous mood reads, but that meant didn't get to two ARCs I'd planned to read this month. Whoops. I partially made good on my "one self-published read a month" goal... Continue Reading →
