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.

#readwomenmarch will be upon us this weekend. Who are some women writers that you are looking forward to reading in March? I've got so many to choose from; some faves and also some new-to-me. I'm pulling books from each stack/folder: backlist physical, backlist ebooks, new physical, new ebooks, giveaway wins (I won quite a few this month!), Libby borrows and physical library books. I have no idea how many I'll get to, so there will be no set TBR for March. I'm just gonna read whatever, whenever. Happy Monday! 🗡💀🖤 . . . . . . . #newtomebooks #gideontheninth #tamsynmuir #tordotcompublishing #debutnovel #sciencefantasy #booksineedtoread #bookstagram #bookdragon #booknerdigans #fantasybooks #fantasy #sockmonday #booksandsocks #booksaremagic #instabook #booksofinsta #instareader #necromancer #necromancy #spacefantasy #lgbtqbooks #readwomen #womenwriters

Happy #stacksaturday! I'm fairly certain that Coates can script anything. Time to dive back into Intergalactic Wakanda. I need away from the heavy, if only for an hour. . . . . . . . . . . #comicstack #comics #sequentialart #visualstorytelling #blackpanther #tanehisicoates #intergalacticempireofwakanda #theintergalacticempireofwakanda #marvelcomics #tchalla #njadaka #goddessbast #girlswhoreadcomics #bookstagram #bookstack #wakandaforever #wakanda #blackbookstagram #blackpanthercomics #orisha #sff #storm #ororo #instacomics #igcomicfamily

Next up on the block: Frederick Douglass ~Prophet of Freedom by David W. Blight. Although it's not written by a black author, it is about one of the greatest African American historical figures. Did I mention it won the Pulitzer? I still have over 250 pages left of my current read. I may have to go ahead and start reading my smaller books too because at this rate I'll only read 2 books for the month. 😂 . . . . . . . . . . #februaryreads #februarytbr #blackhistorybooks #blackhistorymonth #frederickdouglass #prophetoffreedom #davidwblight #pulitzerprize #biography #nonfiction #historicalfigures #blackhistoricalfigures #africanamericanhistory #bookstagram #bookworm #booknerdigans #blackbookstagram #reader #instareads #booksofinsta

You cannot read this book and not feel angry. I double-dog dare you. I am only 139 pages in and I can't count how many times I've put it down to take a breath.

#januarywrapup: I read 8 books last month; 9 if you want to count the novella Ark, by Veronica Roth. Ta-Nehisi Coates wins this round. I also wanted to give The Association of Small Bombs that other star, but there were parts that I didn't like in the beginning. Still, if you've not read it, I definitely recommend reading it. Especially if you're in a book club. ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ Ark (not pictured)⭐⭐⭐☆☆ Small Magics ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ Thunderhead ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ The Association of Small Bombs ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ The Lost City of the Monkey God ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ What We Lose ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ Passing ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ We Were Eight Years In Power ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Educated ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ . . . . . . . #januaryreads #winterreads #readingwrapup #instareads #instabooks #allthebooks #instareader #igreaders #booknerdigans #booksandcoffee #monthlyreads #books #booksofig #readersofinstagram #readerslife #booklover #stacksaturday #thunderhead #smallmagics #wewereeightyearsinpower #educated #passing #thatbooklife #theassociationofsmallbombs #whatwelose #thelostcityofthemonkeygod

#februarytbr: The Nickel Boys, Hitting A Straight Lick With A Crooked Stick, Frederick Douglass, Stamped From The Beginning. ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ I'm not sure which ebooks I'll be reading yet, but these are the only physical books I'll be reading next month.
