Top Ten Tuesday: Bookish Memories

This week's Top Ten Tuesday prompt is Bookish Memories. My entire life is just one long bookish memory. Ha-ha! But here are a few bookish memories that stand out. Meeting Leigh Bardugo: This is definitely one of the big ones because I love the Grishaverse books and it was amazing to hear her talk and …

Book Review: Once Upon an Irish Summer by Lisa T. Bergren

It is so relieving to continually enjoy new books by favorite authors. For some reason, I'm always worried that I'll pick up their latest book and won't like it. But when it comes to Lisa T. Bergren's books, I'm never disappointed. Fiona Burke is one step away from finishing her dissertation on famed pirate queen, …

Top Ten Tuesday: Most Read Authors

This week's Top Ten Tuesday prompt is Authors I’ve Read the Most Books By. This is such an interesting prompt and after looking through my Goodreads read shelf, I was surprised at some of the authors that made the cut! To make it more fair, I didn't include manga or comic book authors because by …

Book Review: Selah by Lisa T. Bergren

The first two books in The Sugar Baron's Daughters series by Lisa T. Bergren swept me from my comfortable couch to the wild jungles of Nevis during the start of the Revolutionary War.

Book Review: Once Upon an Alaskan Summer by Lisa T. Bergren

I wasn't so much interested in reading Once Upon an Alaskan Summer as I was in supporting Lisa T. Bergren and her books.

Top Ten Tuesday: Auto-Buy Authors

This week's Top Ten Tuesday prompt is Auto-Buy Authors. I'm not sure if any author is 100% an auto-buy for me because I do look at the book they are publishing before I decide to buy it or not. There are several others, though, that I trust will write good books, no matter what, and I …

Book Review: Verity by Lisa T. Bergren

When I read Keturah, the first book in The Sugar Baron's Daughters series, I was impressed by Lisa T. Bergren's ability to blend the historical details with the relevant and relatable struggles of a modern audience. With Verity, Bergren does much the same, emphasizing a message that focuses on following one's heart, no matter what …

Book Review: Once Upon a Montana Summer by Lisa T. Bergren

Contemporary romance novels are not my usual reading choice, but I make an exception when it comes to Lisa T. Bergren's books. I had the privilege to read an early copy of Once Upon a Montana Summer, and I found myself enjoying this adorable romance set against the gorgeous backdrop of Glacier, Montana. After Adalyn …

Books and Waffles Alphabeticals: B

This week's Top Ten Tuesday prompt is Freebie (Make up your own topic, or use a previous TTT topic you might have missed.) Instead of doing a Top Ten post, I'm going to do another Alphabetical post. I wasn't planning to do two this close together, but I kind of like the idea of doing …

Top Ten Tuesday: Authors I’m Grateful For

This week's Top Ten Tuesday prompt is Thanksgiving/Thankful Freebie. Since the bookish world wouldn't exist without all the many lovely authors, I decided to spotlight a few authors who are constantly making the world better today with their words. Because this list would be forever long, I narrowed it down to authors who are currently …
