I like doing these opening lines posts. I never remember what the opening lines of books are, so it's always interesting to go back and see them. Also interesting to see the variety they have. I tend to choose books pretty randomly and just see what I get, so these aren't the ones I think are good or bad or anything, they just are. (Though I do like to choose a favorite, because why not?) As I...
It's that time of year again! The time when I share all my favorite covers from the books I read! Covers aren't everything, obviously, but I do love a good one. So here are some good amazing ones! I'm not going to talk about every single individual cover, but I'll drop some thoughts I have here and...
I forgot to keep track of anything this month, and now I don't know what I did. I guess I played more Moonstone Island? I've already posted my review, it's a really cute farming sim / creature collector game! Oh, I got a little ghost cat in Cats & Soup! It shifts between opaque and translucent, it really is cute. I'm also still watching JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. I'm on Season 3 now. It's...
Fiore, a courtesan with few options, plans to find an older man whose money can have him taken care of for life, but meeting Enzo, a masked duke who hasn't felt like himself for a while, throws a wrench into those plans. Their pasts may bring struggles, but they find themselves falling for each...
I like fae and I like books, and I really like this tag because it has some creative questions that I've not seen in other tags. Having already done the tag (I'm writing the intro last, sorry to break the illusion), I like that I even got to talk about some books I haven't talked about much or in a while! Anyway, I found this at KBbookreviews. The rules are: - Give credit to the creator of...
I sort of wanted to do something for Valentine's Day (not that I'm celebrating, but I've been blogging for over seven years, I need to get ideas from somewhere), so this is what I decided on! Because book covers are fun. I have to be honest, I was a little bit lazy and mostly looked through covers I already had on my blog from previous posts. But not everyone has seen all those...
My favorite books of the year! Who doesn't love talking about books they loved? Some of these were ones I'd been looking forward to, and they didn't disappoint. Some were sort of spontaneous reads. Some I didn't really know if they'd be my kinda book, but they surprised me in the best way. So here, in no particular order, are my top ten(ish) reads of 2022, plus a few other things I...
Is it just me, or are book covers getting better? I have SO many this year. These aren't in any order. I tried to group them together by similar art styles or color, just for a nice aesthetic. And I chose a few to talk about, but I couldn't talk about them all because I'd just be repeating how pretty everything is a million times. And most of them aren't just great art, they're also great text...
I have to preface this by saying I'm not criticizing other reviewers. Everyone is allowed to have their own opinion and to dislike a book for any reason! But it's things I've seen in reviews that got me thinking about this topic. This year, I've noticed a few of the books I loved got some negative reviews that complained about the plot being slow, or the plot being simple and not having much...
Well, September was a month. And it's over now! I never know how to start these posts anymore. I call these "Life and Books," but as it turns out, life is usually either too boring to be worth talking about or too complicated to want to talk about, and I pretty much just talk about books, games, music, podcasts, and movies/shows instead. Speaking of which... I found this really cool cover of...
