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. This week’s pick is based purely on two things: I LOVE this cover, and it’s got a reference to Kate Atkinson in the blurb. As far as the […]
Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by The Broke and the Bookish, where bloggers are given a bookish top ten theme each week to blog about. This week, we’re talking about reading regrets, specifically the books we meant to read last year but just couldn’t manage. Story of my life! I went through my physical stacks […]
The nitty-gritty: The devil, teens and wheat fields collide in Liggett’s latest terrifying story. Once again, Kim Liggett tackles the irresistible combination of teenagers and horror. In her debut Blood and Salt, she set her story in the corn fields. This time the story revolves around wheat fields (OK Kim what’s up with the crop stories??) […]
![Over-Booked [62] – A Book Haul Post](https://i0.wp.com/booksbonesbuffy.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/ob-1-7.jpg?resize=200%2C200)
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 […]
