Books On My TBR I Predict Will Be 5-Star Reads | Top Ten Tuesday

No-one adds a book, willingly, to their TBR thinking that they won't like it. Nor do we expect every read to be five star reads. We can generally hope they'll sit comfortably in the three to four star range because three to four stars still means it's a good book. Might not get our reader…

Unfinished Business – mainly in the form of book series

I mean, we've all done it. We've all picked up the first (or second or third or etc) book in a series, proclaimed to love it and then never pick up the next one. I see you in the back, trying to duck under your hat. There's no one innocent here so it's ok to come out.

Avatar: The Last Airbender Book Tag

It took me a ridiculous amount of time to watch Avatar and I want to kick my younger self for not doing it sooner. Seriously, I only finished it late last year. The BRILLIANCE of this show... beyond words. I'm sure someone somewhere has words for it, but not here. Not in this lowbrow establishment.

Review – A Curse So Dark and Lonely by Brigid Kemmerer

It's a beauty and the beast retelling where the protagonist has a disability. If you need to know more than that, then I can't help you. Just go in blind. It's still good!

2020 Anticipated Releases (First Quarter)

I will never understand why we separate our anticipated releases into seasons instead of quarters.
