Hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl Officially, this week’s topic was Cover Redesigns I Loved/Hated. I generally don’t notice – much less have strong opinions about – book cover redesigns, so I tweaked the topic to be Summer Covers I Love instead. Since August is a hot, humid month here in southern Ontario, I thought it… Read More

Top Ten Tuesday: LGBT+ Books I Want to Read
Share post:
Hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl This week is a Freebie week for Top Ten Tuesday, and it took me ages to decide what to write for it. There are so many books out there that I’d like to read but haven’t gotten around to yet. Today, I’m narrowing my focus to those titles that… Read More
Top Ten Tuesday: Settings I’d Like to See More Of (Or At All)
Share post:
Hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl Unlike last week, I had no problem filling up the list this week. Honestly, I could have shared twice as many ideas! 1. Prehistoric Africa. I’ve read dozens of prehistoric novels over the years. The vast majority of them were set in Europe or places very close to that… Read More
Top Ten Tuesday: Auto-Buy Authors
Share post:
Hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl Last week I unfortunately didn’t have time to leave comments on everyone’s Top Ten Tuesday posts. Thank you to all of you who commented on mine! I’ll be back to my regular commenting habits again this week. I’m a frugal, minimalistic, and environmentally conscious person, so this week’s list… Read More
Top Ten Tuesday: Characters I Wish Existed
Share post:
Hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl I rarely if ever meet characters like the ones I’m about to describe to you, but I dream about reading about them someday. If you know of books in any genre featuring characters who match these descriptions, please do speak up! A Hero Who Doesn’t Succeed No, I’m not… Read More
Top Ten Tuesday: Childhood Favourites
Share post:
Hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl This week’s prompt is a cute one. I’m going to try to answer it without mentioning books I’ve talked about here many times before like Harry Potter, Anne of Green Gables, and the Little House on the Prairie novels. Not only will it make this post a bit more… Read More
Top Ten Tuesday: Books on My Summer 2019 TBR
Share post:
Hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl As I mentioned in last week’s Top Ten Tuesday post, my TBR list depends a lot on when I reach the top of the request list for the various library books I’m in queue for. Based on the ratio of requests to library copies of these books, I believe… Read More
Top Ten Tuesday: Most Anticipated Releases of the Second Half of 2019
Share post:
Hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl Here are the books scheduled to be released in the second half of 2019 that I’m anticipating the most. Since the vast majority of what I read comes from my local library, I probably won’t get around to many of these titles until months after they are released. If… Read More
Top Ten Tuesday: Unpopular Bookish Opinions
Share post:
Hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl It’s going to be interesting to see how everyone responds to this week’s prompt. I wasn’t sure if I could come up with enough responses to justify participating this week, but luckily I did. 1. Sometimes the movie is better than the book. For example, The Hobbit was a… Read More
Top Ten Tuesday: Ghost Stories
Share post:
Hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl My favourite genre is science fiction and fantasy. Since that’s an impossibly broad answer to this week’s prompt, Books From My Favorite Genre, I decided to narrow it down to something specific: ghost stories. I adore ghost stories, especially the ones that rely on psychological horror instead of jump… Read More
