Fact: I have never participated in a readathon before.
It should be a piece o’ cake, right? Nevertheless, here is my TBR list for such the occasion.
two friends and too many books

***Disclaimer: I received a free early access copy of The Sword and the Dagger by Robert Cochran from NetGalley and Tor/Forge for review purposes. Thanks so much!
What initially drew me to this book was the title and cover. Once I read the summary, the historical fiction aspect drew me in, especially since takes place during the Crusades which is a time period you just don’t see much of in young adult fiction.

***Disclaimer: I received a free early access copy of Wicked Saints by Emily A. Duncan from NetGalley and St. Martin’s Press for review purposes. Thank you so much!
Wicked Saints is one of the most anticipated reads of the year with good reason. It’s been compared to Leigh Bardugo’s Grishaverse, but I feel like that’s where the surface similarities end. The world in Wicked Saints is very eastern European inspired and also very dark, which is extremely fitting.

I have never read a Chuck Palahniuk book before. Many of my friends have a really love his stuff so I finally bit the bullet and got one. All of his books are rather intense and make you think. Lots of irony and there’s a lot of social messages in them. Beautiful You was no exception by far.

I had a bit of a high reaching goal in January and last month really sucked reading wise, so for February I’m taking my time and putting books down that have a high probability of being finished.

The prose novel, Doctor Strange: The Fate of Dreams by Devin Grayson has made me a fan of her writing. It’s also wonderful that she was the first female to be a regular writer for Batman. I love seeing progress being made in a prominently male dominated profession because there are just as many female comic readers out there that can give an action-packed storyline.

Chemistry Lessons by Meredith Goldstein is a light and quick read. I ended up finishing it one night before bed.
I really enjoyed this book. What initially drew me in was the cover. I’m a very visual person and covers play a big factor when I search for books that I might be interested in. I loved how it conveyed the ‘science’ aspect and ‘bubbly romance’ in a complimentary way. It really helps sell the story.

Hello there! My name is Kari and I’m the second person behind this bookish blog you have accidentally (or not so accidentally) stumbled upon. I’m going to try to make this as concise to the point as possible to help save you and me so we can collectively get on to the fun subject: books!
