Book Review | Burn Our Bodies Down by Rory Power

01.24.2021 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

Book Review | Star Wars The High Republic: Into the Dark by Claudia Gray

01.22.2021 by Kari // Leave a Comment

***Disclaimer: I received a free early access copy of Star Wars The High Republic: Into the Dark by Claudia Gray from NetGalley through Disney Lucasfilm Press for review purposes. Thank you so much for opportunity.

I’ve been in such a Star Wars mood lately! All thanks to my husband, who is making his way chronologically through every Star Wars book. We also watched Clone Wars and Rebels rather recently and the stories in those really got my hooked as well.

I haven’t had the pleasure of reading Claudia Gray’s other Star Wars books, however, this one has definitely sealed my fate.

Ashley’s December Wrap Up and Haul

01.09.2021 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

I honestly can’t believe that December is coming to a close and that 2020 is wrapping up.  This has been a hard year, but it’s also had some good moments for me personally.  That being said, I am glad that it’s coming to an end and am hoping for even better things in 2021.  I had a pretty decent reading month this month, and I hauled a few books.  I’m just going to jump into those now, but you’ll find them below the cut.

Ashley’s January TBR

01.04.2021 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

I’m a bit late to the game, but I have a pretty decent TBR for January.  I had an excellent reading year in 2020, and while I know that I won’t surpass my reading total, I’m excited for the wide open potential of a new reading year.  So I felt like it would be fun to go over my January TBR.  **Disclaimer, I have already read a few of these books.

I turn 29 on Thursday and honestly I can’t believe it’s already here.  I thought it would be cool to wrap up my challenge to myself of the 28 Books I Want to Read in my 28th Year.  I did a six month check in, which you can find here.

Without further ado, let’s jump into the books I read and didn’t read from the remaining books on my list.
