A Very Arc-ish Readathon TBR

A Very Arc-ish Readathon
So the other night I was scrolling through Twitter, as one does, and I came across someone's announcement that they were joining the "A Very Arc-ish Readathon" hosted by the lovely Aimal at Bookshelves & Paperbacks. Now it got me thinking about possibly joining. After all, I am way behind on my review books and it is for the entire month of April. First my 6+ month slump was created by extreme happiness and then fed by the depression that my first heartbreak created. While I am not completely out of my slump and am not completely sure that I will be doing this, I want to try. And maybe telling everyone will help me try.

So here it is, a bullet point list of some of my choices. Let's hope I at least read one. That's my goal.
  • Freeks by Amanda Hocking
  • The Duke of Bannerman Prep by Katie A. Nelson
  • How it Feels to Fly by Kathryn Holmes
  • Alterations by Stephanie Scott
  • This Savage Song by Victoria Schwab
  • Please Don't Tell by Laura Tims
  • One Was Lost by Natalie D. Richards
  • The Outliers by Kimberly McCreight
  • Change Places With Me by Lois Metzger
Now that is a longer list than I had planned. However, I seriously think I'll only finish one or two so I'm not going to pressure myself. Will I stick to the list? Maybe. But I also have so many arcs that I could stray from it if something sounds appealing enough. I'm going to play this by ear and see how it goes. First things first, finish my current read, Big Little Lies by Liane Moriarty. What's your April TBR looking like? I'd love to know if you've read anything on my list. Happy reading.
Xoxo,
Gabriella

Debut Author Bash 2017: Kate Hart

Image
Hello and welcome to day one of the 2017 Debut Author Bash! This year I'll be doing a couple of days and today is all about Kate Hart! I hope you enjoy! About the Book A YA debut about a teen girl who wrestles with rumors, reputation, and her relationships with two brothers. Seventeen-year-old Raychel is sleeping with two boys: her overachieving best friend Matt…and his slacker brother, Andrew. Raychel sneaks into Matt’s bed after nightmares, but nothing ever happens. He doesn’t even seem to realize she’s a girl, except when he decides she needs rescuing. But Raychel doesn't want to be his girl anyway. She just needs his support as she deals with the classmate who assaulted her, the constant threat of her family’s eviction, and the dream of college slipping quickly out of reach. Matt tries to help, but he doesn’t really get it… and he’d never understand why she’s fallen into a secret relationship with his brother. The friendships are a precarious balance, and when t...

Armchair BEA 2017 Day Two

Welcome to day two of Armchair BEA, the from home version of Book Expo America which I hope to attend someday. Let's just get straight into today's topics, shall we? What Do Readers Want? What I want as a reader is to be sucked in. I want a story to hold my attention and make me care. That is actually how I rate my books, based on how well they keep my attention. When it comes to events, I would like them to be spread out more. Maybe that's a weird way to say it. What I mean is, change the cities you visit. Don't always do the major ones, some of us can't make it to those. And if you insist on making them so far, can you make them at a reasonable time? Example: Most of the events are a two hour drive from me, but don't begin until 7 PM and on a week night. Let's say I only stay for an hour? I'm still not getting home until after 10 PM if I'm lucky. We all know well known authors might not get to everyone in a simple hour. This is why I rar...
