Discussion: Required Summer Reading

July 22, 2021July 21, 20217 Comments

We're in the middle of that time of year... summer reading for kids and teens. What a joy, right? For librarians, it can be a little bit of a nightmare for us when we don't get our shipment of summer reading books or when the procrastinators start coming in.  Even just the Children and Teen … Continue reading Discussion: Required Summer Reading

Favorite Books of 2020 (so far)

July 24, 20204 Comments

We're almost a month past the halfway mark of the year, but I still think this is a good time to do this post because by December, the entire list could be different. It'll be interesting to see how it changes by then, if I ever get out of this reading slump I'm in. So … Continue reading Favorite Books of 2020 (so far)

Make Summer Reading a Success

June 12, 2020June 11, 2020Leave a comment

As a librarian, I've seen the "summer reading scramble" every year - where students can't find any of the books on their school-issued reading lists because they waited until the last minute to get started. Then we librarians are left to deal with frustrated kids and parents. To put it simply, August is a librarian's … Continue reading Make Summer Reading a Success

February Haul and Wrap Up

March 1, 2020February 29, 2020Leave a comment

As always, February flew by after the five years that was January, yet somehow I was still able to get through seven books for the month.  It's surprising because I didn't read as fast as I usually do, nor did I pick up any mangas to up the numbers. One of the books though, I'd … Continue reading February Haul and Wrap Up

January Haul and Wrap Up

January 31, 2020January 30, 20202 Comments

January started off strong with reading, but kind of slowed down as I started going through some personal/spiritual things mid-month (which feels like a lot longer, honestly). I can't really explain it, but my fellow Christians will know that sometimes we go through rough patches in our walk with God.  Mine happened right after I … Continue reading January Haul and Wrap Up

August Haul and Wrap Up

September 2, 2019September 2, 2019Leave a comment

August was a pretty decent month for reading.  Overall, I read 8 books, of which 2 were rereads.  Because of the release of Descendants 3 early on in the month, I quickly became a little obsessed with Descendants fanfiction, which kind of distracted me a bit from reading books and put me into a bit … Continue reading August Haul and Wrap Up

Summer Reading Scramble

August 20, 2019June 9, 20203 Comments

Summer Reading... the one thing that many students dread about their time off from school.  In fact, a lot of them dislike it so much that they put it off until the last minute.  And guess what that means?  When they come in to get the book from the library, chances are we don't have … Continue reading Summer Reading Scramble

10 Light-Reading Book Recommendations

July 27, 2019July 9, 20202 Comments

There's only about a month left of summer vacation for most students, and even in the work world, people are always taking vacations this time of year to get away for a week or so.  Most of that ends after the first week of September and the seasons begin to change.  This also means there's … Continue reading 10 Light-Reading Book Recommendations

Happy #FantasyFriday! What is one of your favorite fantasy books/series?
Took me a while to read this one because I was in a sort-of depression, but I got through it and enjoyed it. Now that I’m feeling a little more like myself, I’m getting reviews back up on the blog and the review for As If On Cue is up now!
I’m already loving Last Chance Books, and I wish I didn’t have work today so I could just keep on reading! 🤓
Who’s one of your auto-read authors? So far, I’ve loved all of Jennifer E. Smith’s books (that I’ve read anyway) 🙃
Looking for a good YA mystery/thriller? Might I suggest The Silence of Six series? The two novels kept me on the edge of my seat and turning the pages to find out what would happen next.
