Last week I listed my Top Ten Adult Books of 2014, and this week it’s time to celebrate my favorite Young Adult Books of the year! For some reason, I didn’t read as many YA books in 2014, so this list was easier to narrow down to ten favorites. However, each book on this list satisfied […]

It’s Tuesday, and time for another Top Ten list from the Broke and the Bookish! With so many upcoming fun Top Ten lists this month, it’s going to be hard to avoid some crossover, so I’m selecting books that haven’t been on any previous top ten lists.

It’s been an entire month since I’ve done an Over-Booked! What with my daughter’s choir show taking up most of October so far (and it’s […]

And July is over, just like that! This year is flying by, right? August in my little town means “back to school” for my kids. Only two more weeks of “summer” for us, unfortunately. But in blogging, August is looking like a terrific month for books. I’ve got a full plate of review books, but […]
It’s the final day of Armchair BEA. It’s been so much fun, although I wish I had more time to spend going around to everyone’s blogs.
