A few years ago – way back in 2018 actually, I posted a list of reading tracker ideas and it still gets lots of interest today. While that list has still got some great options for you, I thought I’d refresh it a bit and add some fun new book tracker ideas to bring it into 2022. I feel like… Read More
Fun Book Series for Early Readers
I’ve got an emerging reader in my house so that means I’ve been searching and scouring from new book series to keep him engaged and excited to learn. He doesn’t know he’s building his reading skills, mind you, but let’s not tell him that part. Each of these on my list has proven tried and true in my home and… Read More
Review: The Rogue Trilogy
My first book review of 2020, The Rogue Trilogy, is a very special one. The author, Elizabeth Carlton, is not only an incredibly talented writer, but she’s also one of the sweetest friends I have! We met online through video games and friends and she has since become one of my favourite people in the world! That’s why it was… Read More
P&P 20 in 20 Reading Challenge!
Happy New Year! I hope you all had a safe and happy holiday season filled with cozy blankets, hot beverages and lots of great books! Mine was an incredibly busy and happy time with LOTS of caffeine and video games sprinkled in. While I didn’t get as much reading in as I would have liked, I did manage some. I… Read More
Review: Chase Darkness with Me
I can’t even begin to list the things I loved about Chase Darkness With Me … there are so many! First of all, one thing I have to give Billy Jensen mad respect for is that his investigative drive is fuelled by the search for justice and empathy for victims and their families. While much of true crime can border… Read More
True Crime Books for Murderinos
My true crime addiction continues to grow by the hour and I can’t say that I’m mad about it. You may remember me talking about it in my Behind the Blog post or my review of the true crime book, Pathological. My husband is probably getting a little bit concerned but it’s always good to keep him on his toes!… Read More
Review: The Diviners
Alright, I’m officially a YA convert! While I’ve always been a Potterhead because that’s what I grew up in, the Young Adult genre hasn’t been something I’ve really delved into until now. The Diviners is the second YA title that I’ve loved in the past while and I’m into it. Maybe it’s more the Historical Fiction or Fantasy side of… Read More
My Bookish Holy Grail – Bodies in the Backyard
For years now, there’s been a book that I wanted to own a physical copy of. I read a borrowed copy a long time ago but it’s not enough for me just to have read it, I need to have it in my personal collection. It’s my bookish holy grail. I read a lot more ebooks these days, but that… Read More
8 Booktubers To Watch
Believe it or not, reading isn’t my only hobby! While it’s way up there in the things I love (obviously), I also enjoy playing hockey, cooking, watching true-crime documentaries and playing video games. While playing games, I often have YouTube up on my second monitor and I have a playlist of new videos from my favourite creators. You can read… Read More
Review: Pathological
It’s a universal truth that the mind of a serial killer is a complex place to be. Pathological is a true crime tale about the misdeeds and mental state of Dr. Anthony Garcia. More importantly, it outlines the events leading up to the murders he committed and how the exceptional detectives were finally able to track him down and put… Read More
