Hello & Welcome To My Blog

I love to read, drink coffee, eat pickles and I'm determined to watch every movie that was made before 1981. I'm sort of an introvert, and I stay to myself. People in this world are cruel, so I'll just let them have it. I prefer fictional worlds and it's inhabitants!! Catch me watching Game of Thrones!

My Rating System

5 Stars ***** I absolutely Love It! It has a spot on my reread shelf.

4 Stars **** I Like It a lot! Definitely recommend checking it out.

3 Stars *** It's Okay. Not bad, but not great either.

2 Stars ** Meh! I could live without ever having read it.

1 Star * Not my thing! Hate it! Wouldn't rec it to anyone.

Half ratings fall somewhere in between. DNF books do not get a rating, unless I read at least 50% of the book.

Sharing some more of my favorite books for Hispanic Heritage Month. There are so many authors that I have yet to discover, so feel free to drop names and titles below. I have no self control when it comes to reading.

It. Is. Friday. I'm juggling three books right now; I've only had time to read two comics and one eBook. This weekend will be spent trying to remedy that. This month will be over before you know it.

I so wish I were headed to Hogwarts. Like, I can't deal with the real world. It's too much. I'm going to rewatch all of the movies this weekend. Maybe I'll go and get my nephew since he loved the books so much. I need some distractions. . . . . . . . . #backtohogwarts #harrypotterseries #harrypotter #imawizard #mugglessuck #harrypotterandtheorderofthephoenix #jkrowling #mglit #hogwarts #potterhead #hufflepuff #gryffindor #slytherin #ravenclaw #magicalbooks #magicwand #bookstagram #books #bookish #bookcommunity #booksareauniquelyportablemagic

Here's part of my September TBR. I didn't have a great reading month in August (only read 3 books, and 2 of those were from July), but I'm trying to focus on all these darn ebooks I need to read. I'm starting with these six and going from there; plus I'll be reading at least 3 comics/manga, and maybe something from my paperback stack. AND, finishing The Inheritance Trilogy is my main goal. Wish me luck! What are you reading this month? . . . . . #septembertbr #zadiesmithfeelfree #zadiesmith #mondaysnotcoming #tiffanydjackson #akatawitch #nnediokorafor #themurmurofbees #sofiasegovia #theinventionofwings #suemonkkidd #thesympathizer #vietthanhnguyen #books #reading #ebooks #kindlebooks #kindlereads #septemberreads #bookstagram #instareader #instareads #eclecticreader #diversereads #pulitzerprize #oprahsbookclub #fiction #nonfiction #booklover #essaycollection

Happy Friday, booknerds! My 4 day weekend started at 7am, so I've pretty much been reading, watching television, and drinking coffee all day. Now I can't seem to calm down. I'm jittery as all hell right now. Hopefully, it will wear off soon. At least my nightstand has one less book than it did this morning. Working on the other 2 before I even think about starting something new. Happy reading! . . . . . . . . . #holidayweekend #whatareyoureading #books #reading #nonfictionreads #nonfiction #theriseandfallofthedinosaurs #sciencebook #sciencebooks #toberead #stevebrusatte #paleontology #prehistoric #bookish #booksaddicted #instareader #instabooks #booksofinsta #bookstagram #williammorrow #dinosaurbooks

Wasn't planning to start this until next weekend, but I cracked it open yesterday and read the first story. I'm a little apprehensive about it because I don't like the continuous use of the "N" word (it's in two of the titles so I hope it stops there). I had this problem with Lot by Bryan Washington, but I still enjoyed the stories. We'll see how this goes...... . . . . . #currentlyreading #theworlddoesntrequireyou #rionamilcarscott #liverightpublishing #SockSunday #shortstories #shortstorycollection #instareads #instareader #booksofinsta #bookstagram #books #bookcommunity #augustreads #fictionreads #fiction #sundayreads

Happy Friday, booknerds! For those who are doing reading challenges this year, how are you doing so far? I'm 62/70 on Goodreads; 13/20 on my backlist tbr; 11/24 on Book Riot's Read Harder. I'm totally okay with my progress, so far. I just want to read everything. So many books, so little time. . . . . . . . #bookcommunity #bookish #books #reading #readingchallenges #goodreads #backlistbooks #thedivinersseries #divinersseries #thediviners #lairofdreams #libbabray #lbyr #ireadya #yareads #yalit #yabooks #yabookstagram #bookstagram #bookstack #stacksaturday #youngadultbooks #booksofinsta #instabooks
