QOTD: What’s on your autumn TBR?⁣ ⁣ I have a coupl QOTD: What’s on your autumn TBR?⁣ ⁣ I have a couple, mostly some NetGalley reads I need to get to.⁣ ⁣ But I’m really hoping to (finally) read An Enchantment of Ravens.⁣ ⁣ It’s on my fall TBR every year, and every year I ignore the seasonal TBR I put together and end up reading other books. 😅⁣ ⁣ Do you like to make TBRs?⁣ ⁣ —⁣ ⁣ [Image description: A hardcover copy of the young adult fantasy novel, An Enchantment of Ravens by Margaret Rogerson with an apple turnover.]⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ #bookblogger #booktography #bookrecommendation #yabookstagram #bookrelated
QOTD: Do you like watching adaptations?⁣ ⁣ I don’t QOTD: Do you like watching adaptations?⁣ ⁣ I don’t mind them, but I rarely watch them, if I’m honest.⁣ ⁣ To be fair, I don’t watch a whole lot of TV or movies in general. And when I do, it’s usually reruns of old favorites as background noise while I’m working. 😅⁣ ⁣ But I’m debating if I should watch The Love Hypothesis.⁣ ⁣ I read it earlier this year and enjoyed it! It’s not my favorite romance, or even my favorite of Ali’s books (Deep End still holds that title), but it was a solid read.⁣ ⁣ I’m just really interested to see how that story will translate to TV and what changes they made, if any, to better fit the new format.⁣ ⁣ Are you looking forward to any adaptations?⁣ ⁣ —⁣ ⁣ [Image description: A paperback copy of the romance novel, The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood.]⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ #bookgram #booksbooksbooks #bookishlife #readingtime📖 #instabooks Do you ever buy movie/TV tie in editions of books? I usually don't, especially since they're usually more expensive than the normal edition. 😅
QOTD: Do you get FOMO for books?⁣ ⁣ I thought I ou QOTD: Do you get FOMO for books?⁣ ⁣ I thought I outgrew it in college, and that might be true for social settings, but I definitely still get it when it comes to books.⁣ ⁣ Whether it’s pre-order incentives or limited exclusive editions, it’s so hard for me to resist pre-ordering.⁣ ⁣ Which is an issue since I rarely actually read the books I pre-order. 😅⁣ ⁣ The marketing around “first print run only” is so good at making me panic buy books. But after Iron Flame, I’m a little more jaded about those editions, especially after the Wing & Claw editions came out.⁣ ⁣ So I’m still debating if I should pre-order Threshing Day.⁣ ⁣ On one hand, I really love Fourth Wing. On the other, I still have to read my pre-ordered copy of Onyx Storm…⁣ ⁣ Are you looking forward to any upcoming releases?⁣ ⁣ —⁣ ⁣ [Image description: The first edition hardcover of the romantasy novel, Iron Flame by Rebecca Yarros, with Fourth Wing in the background.]⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ #booklove #booksarelife #bookishgirl #reader #readerproblems
Hopefully this works. I have a terrible memory wh Hopefully this works. I have a terrible memory when it comes to the books I read. I can maybe remember the general plot but draw a blank when it comes to the finer details like the main character's name. 😅 And so I have to spend a lot of time rereading in order to refresh my memory. It becomes a bit of a domino affect. New sequels don't make sense without the first book. I'm short on time so I can't reread. And so everything goes (and stays) on my tbr. I'm hoping this notebook will help solve that issue. Assuming I can stick to it and remember to write my recaps while/after I read a book. Do you have any tips on note-taking while reading or how to keep track of the plot and characters?
QOTD: Do you watch any sports?⁣ ⁣ I don’t usually QOTD: Do you watch any sports?⁣ ⁣ I don’t usually watch any, but I’ll always tune in for the NFL season.⁣ ⁣ American football is weirdly the only major sport in the US where I can watch a game without having to lookup the rules.⁣ ⁣ So naturally, it’s also the one sport I don’t really enjoy reading sports romances about.⁣ ⁣ It’s just that I know too much so it gets annoying when authors sometimes mess up aspects of the game or take too many creative liberties with it.⁣ ⁣ That said, Fumbled by Alexa Martin, a second chance sports romance about a single mom and a tight end, is one of my favorite comfort reads.⁣ ⁣ Do you have any favorite sports romances?⁣ ⁣ —⁣ ⁣ [Image description: An ebook of the American football based sports romance, Fumbled by Alexa Martin, displayed on an iPad.]⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ #bookdragon #booksofinstagram #beautifulbooks #readingismagic #readersunite
Are you more of an optimist or a pessimist? I did Are you more of an optimist or a pessimist? I didn't finish any books in August and was trying to look on the bright side thinking that it'll at least make it easier to update my reading journal. Nope. Not really. Sure, some portions of it got easier, but it also made other parts harder, or at least more annoying to update. I spent about the same amount of time and energy updating the trackers as I do every month. [Video description: journal with me as I complete my monthly update of the trackers in my reading journal, while discussing whether reading zero books made it easier to update each one.]
QOTD: Do you read backlist titles?⁣ ⁣ I love a goo QOTD: Do you read backlist titles?⁣ ⁣ I love a good backlist title, even the ones that are... products of their time.⁣ ⁣ I can’t believe it’s been 20 years since Slave to Sensation by Nalini Singh was first published.⁣ ⁣ I stumbled upon it randomly while browsing through the available ebooks on Libby. Read the sample and I was hooked!⁣ ⁣ 15 books later, the Psy-Changeling series is one of the longest book series I read and finished in my entire life. Which just goes to show how good the books are since I’m normally terrible at finishing trilogies, let alone a 10+ book series.⁣ ⁣ How do you find books to read?⁣ ⁣ —⁣ ⁣ [Image description: The newer paperback cover of Slave to Sensation by Nalini Singh along with a graphic with the book’s synopsis.]⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ #booklife #instareads #allthebooks #bookishcommunity #romantasy
