DISCUSSION: Mid-Year Reading Goal Update!

With the year halfway over, I know I’ve already done an update on my reading stats so far, but I also wanted to talk about our reading goals! I know I’m not the only one who made a list of 2018 reading resolutions (you can read my main goal post here, or my list of 10 resolutions here), so I wanted to update you all on how my resolutions are going, as well as to ask you guys how YOUR...

Most Popular Books on My TBR

Today’s post is going to be a little bit different — it’s not necessarily a tag, as far as I’m aware, but I saw Adriana over at Perpetual Pages do it in a recent video, and loved the idea! Basically, you go to your Goodreads TBR shelf and sort your books by the number of ratings (“num ratings” in the dropdown bar at the bottom), and then show off which 10 books are the most widely read/rated on your TBR!...

DISCUSSION: TBR Zeroing?

Because I’m behind on a million reviews and don’t have any saved tags that I felt like doing, I thought I would do a discussion post for you guys about something that I’ve been seeing a lot of chatter surrounding: TBR “Zeroing”! (as you can tell, I prefer TBR “doubling” and “tripling”…) If you’re unfamiliar with this term, it’s exactly what it sounds like: getting your TBR to “0”, or as close to it as possible. While some people intend...

2017 Wrap-Up & Statistics

This is a little later than I intended for it to be, but here’s my final 2017 wrap-up! In previous years, I never thought I could’ve passed 50k pages read in a year. As a teen, I read a lot, but “a lot” back then was probably 40 books a year. In my early twenties, “a lot” was 2 books a month. To finish 208 books in one year, though? I am unspeakably proud of myself, and a little bit...

DISCUSSION: My Top Reads of 2017

It’s finally time… I wanted to wait until 2017 ended just to make sure nothing snuck up and took me by surprise, but now that the year is over, I can finally tell you guys my complete list of my top reads of 2017! These are not all 2017 releases – some are older, and some are actually from 2018! – but they are all books that I loved with my whole heart and hope you do, too....

Discussion: Different Criteria for Different Genres?

Hello, everyone, and welcome to my first ever discussion post! I personally love reading and commenting on the discussions you guys come up with, so I thought I’d start doing one every so often as well. For my first one, though, I wanted to address something that feels really important, specifically with the fall season coming up (we’ll get to the whys of that logic in a moment). My initial question to you is: do you ever find yourself looking for different...
