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.

I'm sitting here trying to decide what books to pluck from my TBR pile for June. June is my favorite month, as it celebrates Pride and Caribbean Heritage. I'm not feeling it right now, but I just stacked some randoms for this photo. As for audio and ebooks, I have hundreds to choose from, so whichever I feel like reading, I'll read. I also have some nonfiction reads that I'm looking at right now that cover a range of subjects. Ugh, 2020 is so messed up and I'm so tired. And I can't sleep. Stress is doing numbers on my blood pressure. I seriously have slept a total of 5 hours in the last 2 days. Anyways, are you guys doing any readathons in June? I'm not easily distracted right now, so I may not read much for the foreseeable future. I have no idea if any of these books will be cracked open. Plus, I have 4 preorders coming that I was looking forward to reading, and now I just don't know if I will. Everything is just so infuriatingly unfair. . . . . . . . . #junetbr #readcaribbean #caribbeanheritagemonth #caribbeanfiction #fiction #howtoloveajamaican #alexiaarthurs #untwine #edwidgedanticat #thetruehistoryofparadise #magaretcezairthompson #drown #junotdiaz #landofloveanddrowning #tiphanieyanique #historicalfiction #caribbeanhistory #storycollection #bookstagram #bookstack

I've just been....... raging these last few weeks. I can't understand any of it. Well, I can understand the racism because that is never going away. NEVER. Hope and pray to your heart's content, but racism is what this country was built upon. The thought of it changing is what makes the racists become bolder. We live in a digital world now, so more people are seeing what it's truly like for the first time. Or they've just been terribly naive about it. I wouldn't dare bring a child into this world. Racism is only 1/4 of that decision. The rest is....well, if you don't believe in science then I won't bother explaining climate change and extinction to you. Humans are the most invasive species this planet has ever had. It gets worse by each decade. I'm sick of it all. *rant over* . . . . . . . . . . . #bookstagram #onenightingeorgia #summerbooks #summertbr #celesteonorfleet #amistadbooks #booksandsocks #socksandbooks #booknerdigans #bibliophile #fiction #racerelations #historicalfiction #roadfiction #malcolmxwasright

I was looking specifically for Pacific Islander writers when I came across Shark Dialogues, by Kiana Davenport. Now, I love Thrift Books, don't get me wrong. But I clearly put the "very good" copy of this book in my cart. This isn't very good; I wouldn't even call it good. Alas, I shall just shut up and get the most out of my reading experience. It only cost $4 and some change, anyway. I'm trying to pull ahead so I can read the rest of my #asianpacificamericanheritagemonth TBR, because I've clearly already read two books that I had no intention of reading yet. I totally suck at sticking to TBRs. What are you reading this weekend? 🦈🌺🦈🌺🦈🌺🦈🌺🦈🌺🦈🌺🦈🌺🦈🌺🦈🌺🦈 #sharkdialogues #kianadavenport #hawaiianhistory #historicalfiction #magicalrealism #bookstagram #plumebooks #quarantinereads #mayreads #maytbr #fridayreads #booknerdigans #bibliophile #instareader #bookandsocks #hawaiilife #hawaiianwomen #pacificislandliterature #piheritagemonth #aapiheritagemonth

The days are winding down, and I'll be back at work by the end of the month. I've not read as many books as I'd like since the end of March, but I'm ahead of my goal, so i can't complain. Between doctor visits and Netflix, it's been hard to read more than 2 books per week. Still, I have to hope that I'll keep my pace once i go back to work. Have you read a lot since all this hoopla began? . . . . . . . . . . . . #maytbr #mayreads #asianpacificamericanheritagemonth #aapiheritagemonth #asianamericanwriters #amytan #thejoyluckclub #bookstagram #booknerdigans #bookcommunity #fiction #vintagecontemporaries #literature #literaryfiction #classicliterature #classicfiction #instaread #instabook

Happy Monday 🥰 Where are all my Twihards at? Waking up to good news this morning put me in a great mood. I was all prepared to be a b**ch when I woke up. Yeah, I was grouchy as hell, and then I opened up Twitter and started screaming. We've waited a long time for Edwards's POV, and now it is happening. Okay, time to get back to reading. I haven't started Tea Girl, yet, but I just wanted to put some orange on your feed today. 🧡🔶️🧡 . . . . . . . . . . #sockmonday #theteagirlofhummingbirdlane #lisasee #asianpacificamericanheritagemonth #bookstagram #bookcommunity #bookish #instaread #fiction #domesticfiction #literature #orangebooks #orangesocks #booksaremagic #bibliophile #booknerdigans #scribnerbooks #booksandsocks #socksandbooks

Happy May 1st! Which means it's #asianpacificamericanheritagemonth! 🌺🌸 Here are a few that I'll be reading this month, along with a few more that I hope to get to. I also have my regular TBR which is only four books. I just have to get through as many of these as possible. I'm looking at around 11 books total. I totes have this. I think. What are you reading this month? . . . . . . . . . #maytbr #freefoodformillionaires #theteagirlofhummingbirdlane #thejoyluckclub #slumdogmillionaire #hweehweetan #vikasswarup #sharkdialogues #longlivethetribeoffatherlessgirls #talesofthetikongs #mayreads #bookstagram #booknerdigans #thatbooklife #booklover #instareader #instareads #instabooks #bookcommunity #coffeeandbooks #worldliterature #fiction #literature
