Stacking the Shelves #145, Sunday Post #142, Sunday Salon #136

Hey bookish friends! These past couple of weeks have been busy. This one had quite a bit of hard and stressful things. I have no idea what we are doing today,
possibly a hike, but probably just catching up on chores. Tomorrow will be church and a whole lot of relaxing. Are you doing anything fun this weekend?

June 2024 Reading Wrap Up

June was a crazy, busy month that felt like about 600 years. I feel like I did a fair amount of reading, but I also felt like it was taking me forever to finish each book. So let's see what it actually looks like 😂. I read 15 books and DNF'd one. Click on the cover of the book if you are interested in the review.

Top Ten Tuesday-In the mood for love

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday is a Love Freebie (in honor of Valentine’s Day tomorrow). I will be sharing books with "love" in the title. I will share five that I have read and five that I hope to read soonish. Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and you can head over there to see what our other bookish friends are up to today.

Top Ten Tuesday-Book Titles That Would Make Great Newspaper Headlines

Happy Tuesday and Happy Halloween my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is Book Titles That Would Make Great Newspaper Headlines (Submitted by Cathy @ What Cathy Read Next). When making this list I tried to picture the story that came after the headline, and most of the time I went with slightly humorous.

Top Ten Tuesday-Net Galley rejections that crushed me

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is things that are getting in the way of reading. I get a fair amount of reading time so this doesn't really apply to me.  So, I decided to go with a topic that Lisa @thePlain-Spoken Pen did recently: Net Galley rejections that hurt my heart.

10 Net Galley rejections that crushed me AND have I read them yet?!

10/31/20 no, nor is it on my TBR 🤷 when I finally read the first one I might put it on the TBR.

Top Ten Tuesday-Bookish Books to read

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic Bookish People I’d Like To Meet (These can be authors, book characters, book bloggers/influencers, cover designers, cover models, etc.) Since I really don't have any thoughts on this topic today...I decided to instead list ten bookish books that I want to read (Which might help me with this topic next time it comes up 😂).

Ten Bookish Books I want to read (and yes, you will have seen a few of these before because I own them and STILL haven't read them 🤦)

I read 19 books, dnf 1. Click on the cover of the book if you want to read my review.

Stacking the shelves #4/Sunday Post #1

This is only my fourth time participating in stacking the shelves, but with Christmas and thrift shopping I got a LOT of books that I want to share!!!  

Stacking The Shelves is all about sharing the books you are adding to your shelves, may it be physical or virtual.This means you can include books you buy in physical store or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, review books, gifts and of course ebooks! And audiobooks. Don’t forget audiobooks! In other words, if you can read it or if it can be read to you – no matter how you got it – it belongs in Stacking the Shelves. The Stacking the Shelves meme is hosted at Reading Reality.
