Welcome to Over-Booked, where I share my most recent book acquisitions! I’m linking up with Stacking the Shelves and The Sunday Post, so head on over to those blogs to see other book haul posts. Lots of digital review copies this week! And just a couple of physical books. So far I’m AHEAD with review […]
The nitty-gritty: A short but emotional story about life and death, with ghosts and witches and cats. And rats. We talk about the knives in her kitchen. She agrees to lock them in the closet for the night. Too readily: she’s not a knife girl, not Vicky. I listen to the despair and weariness in […]
![Waiting on Wednesday [230] – THE REFRIGERATOR MONOLOGUES by Catherynne M. Valente & Annie Wu](https://i0.wp.com/booksbonesbuffy.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/The-Refrigerator-Monologues.jpg?resize=200%2C200)
Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Breaking the Spine, and is a fun way to share upcoming books you’re excited about with other bloggers and readers. I’m a huge Valente fan, and I’m excited to see a new book from her coming out this year! The lives of six female superheroes and the girlfriends of […]
Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by the Broke and the Bookish, where each week bloggers are given a different top ten theme to blog about. This week it’s 2017 debuts! This list was harder to come up with than I thought it would be, but I’ve managed to find five YA and five adult debuts […]
The nitty-gritty: Heart-pounding horror meets a touching story about friendship and family bonds. It’s an odd thing that I start 2017 off by reading three very similar books in a row (and those reviews will all be up in the next week or so). It wasn’t planned, it just shook out that way. If you’ve […]
Happy New Year, everyone! I know the general consensus is to say “GOOD RIDDANCE” to 2016, but in terms of reading I had a GREAT year. I read so many fantastic books, visited so many awesome blogs and continued to interact with many fellow bloggers. While the world around us falls apart, speculative fiction is […]
Like many others, I won’t be too sad to say goodbye to 2016! I mean, in many respects it was a pretty crappy year. Losing Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds at the very end nearly pushed me over the edge. I also faced some blogging challenges this year. Not only did I have numerous technical […]
The nitty-gritty: Another winning story from Burgis, filled with political schemes, historical intrigue and plenty of secrets. I really enjoyed Burgis’ Masks and Shadows earlier this year, and so I didn’t hesitate at all when I was offered a review copy of Congress of Secrets. Burgis sets her latest in 1814 Vienna, during the famous […]
![Waiting on Wednesday [229] LOST BOY: THE TRUE STORY OF CAPTAIN HOOK by Christina Henry](https://i0.wp.com/booksbonesbuffy.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/Lost-Boy.jpg?resize=200%2C200)
Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Breaking the Spine, and is a fun way to share upcoming books that you’re excited about with other bloggers and readers. I was so excited to spot this cover reveal last week on Facebook, and I immediately knew which book I’d be picking for the last Waiting on Wednesday […]
We’re nearly at the end of the year, so it’s time to look back over the books I read in 2016 and share my favorites with you! I’ve decided against a top ten list this year, because I read way more than ten books that spoke to me in some way, either on an emotional […]
