Day 10 - Top ten favorite books

Man top 10 favorite books? That is a hard one. Probably the hardest prompt for me. I can't even do a top ten books from this past year, let alone all time favorites. I'm not one for favorites in general though. Like color. What is my favorite color? Well I would probably start by saying a cool color like blue or a deep green, but then I think how some purples are really nice, and what about pink? Can't forget red. And yellow? Oh, yeah there are some nice yellows...and so on until I have listed ever color imaginable almost. I am just not good with favorites. I start with one thing I like, then think of more things that would be favorites then more and before you know it I have too many things. But I shall give this a go. I'm not going to dwell on it, just list the first 10 books I think of so I don't drive myself crazy trying to get it "right". They won't be in any kind of order, just what comes to mind when I think of great books (and I will cut it off at 10). So here is my list (with links to reviews if I have them):

1. The Chocolate Touch by Laura Florand
2. Beauty & the Mustache by Penny Reid
3. The Suffragette Scandal by Courtney Milan
4. Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell
5. Kyland by Mia Sheridan
6. The Collectors' Society by Heather Lyons
7. Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy
8. Book 2 & 3 of the Millennium series by Stieg Larson
9. Battle Royal by Koushun Takami
10. The Strain by Guillermo Del Toro

Man it is hard to stop at 10. I keep thinking of more books that I love, but this will do. They are all great books so they all deserve to be on a favorites list.


Day 11 - What goes on in my bookish mind?

I am not really sure how to answer this one today. Too many things that is for sure. I am always doing something. But book related? Hmm...I am usually thinking of books that are coming out soon that I am looking forward to and what book to read next and thinking about my reviews and everything else I need to do. Do I have enough time? What should I read first? There are just too many books out there that I want to read! I don't know what else to say. I am always thinking of something.

Today is the day!!!   Love Hacked  is out now!!! You should all go get it. Even if you don't know Penny Reid's other books, go get this one. Get the others as well, but seriously go one click this one! It is amazing and I loved every moment of it. In fact I might have read it multiple times already... I just couldn't put it down! Amazing.  Love Hacked: A reluctant romance (Knitting in the City) Synopsis: There are three things you need to know about Sandra Fielding: 1) She makes all her first dates cry, 2) She hasn't been kissed in over two years, and 3) She knows how to knit. Sandra has difficulty removing her psychotherapist hat. Of her last 30 dates, 29 have ended the same way: the man sobbing uncontrollably. After one such disaster, Sandra--near desperation and maybe a little tipsy--gives in to a seemingly harmless encounter with her hot waiter, Alex. Argumentative, secretive, and hostile Alex may be the opposite of everything Sandra knows i

Best of 2019

If any of you are following along then you may have noticed that 2019 was not the most consistent year for me. I have been posting less and less and I finally came to the conclusion that I need a break. A break from writing reviews. A break from reading things I have to read to review. A break from being on a schedule and blogging, at least for a bit. I will still update my Goodreads with ratings for books I read, maybe a line or two about the book, but I need a break. I need to not have the stress of getting things read and posted and all of that. It has become something I don't enjoy so if I am ever going to get back on the blogging train I need a break. So I am not sure I will be posting in 2020. I will see how it goes. Life got super crazy (in a good way!) in 2019 so I also haven't had or wanted to carve out the time to blog. I am still reading books by authors I love, but this way I also can fit in more books by new to me authors. Or read what I feel like, what I am in the
