Top Ten Tuesday: Books I Reread in 2022

This week's Top Ten Tuesday prompt is a Freebie. Since I debated between listing 2022 backlist books or rereads for the December freebie, I thought I might as well do the other this week. I tend to reread a lot of books, so I thought it would be fun to look back at some of …

Top Ten Tuesday: Comfort Reads

This week's Top Ten Tuesday prompt is Comfort Reads. I don't know if I really have "comfort" reads. Books in general are comfort reads for me. But I suppose there are some books that help me escape or relax more than others. Generally ones that where I don't have to think as much or concentrate …

Series Spotlight: Graceling Realm by Kristin Cashore

Welcome to book spotlight where instead of giving you another book review, I’m just going to talk about books I’ve read recently that I enjoyed. Prepare yourself for the fangirl gushing.

Top Ten Tuesday: Books to Reread

This week's Top Ten Tuesday prompt is Books I Want to Read Again. I reread books all the time. Probably about at third of the books I've read this year have been rereads. This was an easy list to make and I plan to reread some of these very soon Beverly Cleary books: I reread …

Reread: Ramona Quimby Series by Beverly Cleary

My library got a new a book called The Art of Ramona Quimby: Sixty-Five Years of Illustrations from Beverly Cleary’s Beloved Books by Anna Katz. Immediately after a co-worker informed me of the book, I snatched it up and started flipping through the pages to look at the art. I was so nostalgic for the …

Narnia Reread: The Last Battle

The Last Battle was the last book I read in 2019, which I find fitting since I spent half the year revisiting Narnia after so many years. This is the book that I remembered least of all. There are moments I could picture, but there weren't many and most of them were about the end …

Narnia Reread: The Silver Chair

The last two books in The Chronicles of Narnia are the ones I remember the least. Whether that's because I don't like them as well or because every time I try to do a reread of the series I never get to them, I don't know. But as I started to reread The Silver Chair, …

Top Ten Tuesday: Changes in My Reading Life

This week's Top Ten Tuesday is Changes In My Reading Life. I didn't really think about how my reading life has changed over the years until this prompt. But there are a few different aspects of my reading life that have shifted since high school and college. Audiobooks: A few years ago, I would have scoffed at …

Narnia Reread: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader

For a long time, The Voyage of the Dawn Treader has been my favorite of the The Chronicles of Narnia. There's just something about the high seas adventure and the magic of the islands that gets me excited. This also happens to be the Narnia book with a dragon in it, and I can't help but …

Narnia Reread: Prince Caspian

I forgot how much I loved Prince Caspian. The more I reread this series, the more I realize that as much as I love The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe and as much as it was the gateway to reading the rest of this series, it is not my favorite Narnia book. One of …
