Hi guys! This is something I’ve wanted to put together for a while. What is “this” you may ask? What is a How To ARC Reference Guide? Well, that’s easy. This guide is a helpful tool for newer bloggers/bookstagramers/booktubers to help them as they grow their following and start to request ARCs. The first […]
Today I went through my massive collection and pulled out a bunch of books that are going to go to the used bookstore. Now that I live in a small apartment I have much less room for books. Unfortunately I came across a dilemma, a pretty big dilemma. I’ve been to a bunch of author […]
More often than not I’ve found that second books in a trilogy have a lot of problems. They tend to drag on and meander all over the place which can be a real let down after a really good first book. But then there are times when the first book in a series is just […]

Just think about how many things we use as bloggers and readers everyday that fall into the category of “bookish” but aren’t actually books. Of course, we have […]
“Waiting On” Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating. This week’s pre-publication “can’t-wait-to-read” selection is: Sometimes a book description just grabs you, and this is one of them.
