In many ways, 2020 has been the ultimate apocalyptic year, so it’s no surprise that I read quite a few books that put a dire spin on our future. I’ve always been drawn to the dystopian/apocalyptic genre anyway, and the dumpster fire that has been 2020 didn’t stop me from seeking out these types of […]
The last month of summer and we’re still knee deep in COVID anxiety/frustration/quarantine/life upheaval! Didn’t you think back in March when this all started that we’d be back to normal by now? I guess we were wrong. For those of you in “smart” countries where you’ve been able to keep the virus under control, I […]

Welcome to Over-Booked, where I share my latest and greatest book acquisitions! I’m linking up with Stacking the Shelves over at Tynga’s Reviews. Today is an odd mix of purchases, surprise book mail, and lots of eARCs per usual, which seems to be the norm these days. This haul looks big, but keep in mind […]

Welcome to Over-Booked, where I share my latest and greatest book acquisitions! I’m linking up with Stacking the Shelves over at Tynga’s Reviews. I think I’ve actually trained myself not to look for packages in the mail every day, lol. So maybe (hopefully) when book mail starts up again someday, it will be like Christmas! […]
The nitty-gritty: Lam’s latest is harsh look at what our own future could be, full of thrilling action and interesting morale questions, but the uneven second half made this a mixed bag for me. Goldilocks has a fantastic premise and uses one of my favorite sci-fi tropes: leaving our dying Earth and striking out to […]
April seemed to go by in the blink of an eye, did anyone else feel like that? Despite the fact that most people are still staying at home, the month flew by for me. Many publishers are shuffling around their book releases for the next few months, in hopes that the stay at home orders […]
This year I’ve decided to do my “Most Anticipated” lists a little differently. In the past, I’ve followed the Top Ten Tuesday format of seasonal TBRs (winter, spring, summer, fall), but I like the idea of cleaner, more symmetrical quarterly lists, dividing the year into four neat segments. I’ve seen other bloggers use this format […]
Welcome to Future Fiction, my reimagining of the Waiting on Wednesday meme! There are so many amazing new books coming out, that I can no longer pick just one. My goal with Future Fiction is to share at least three new books each week, a combination of recent cover reveals and books that I’ve recently […]

Top Ten Tuesday is hosted (for the last time!) by The Broke and the Bookish, and starting next week the new host will be The Artsy Reader Girl. I know The Broke and the Bookish has been hosting this meme for YEARS, and I’m sure they’re tired of it, but it will be sad, since […]
