Two friends united against their massive TBRs
We love to support independent bookstores here at Words About Words, and the last weekend of April was apparently my time to shine and contribute to the noble, bookish cause lol. Anyways, I found out about the Independent Bookstore Crawl (like a pub crawl but with independent bookstores instead!) through the Verbatim Books' fire Instagram… Continue reading BOOK HAUL: Independent Bookstore Day
I've seen these posts around, but have never been looking for something to post in that sweet spot where I don't have a post planned, but also have time to get something like this together. I also have started tracking the books I acquire so that helps. Stacking the Shelves is a weekly post hosted… Continue reading BOOK HAUL: Stacking the Shelves!
I did not write a TBR for this challenge but basically figured I would finish up the Food Wars! series before seeing what else I could knock off my exceedingly long TBR shelf. Big Mood Reader energy TBH. The goal of the Graphicsathon Reading Challenge is to read a graphic novel, or at least a… Continue reading READING CHALLENGE : Graphicsathon – Wrap Up
So on a recent trip down to San Diego I managed to visit not one, but two independent book stores!! Shoutout to my boyfriend to let me drag him all over the city for my bookish desires. Mysterious Galaxy So I hadn't actually visited in-store before, since I mostly order through their website. This trip… Continue reading BOOK HAUL: San Diego Independent Bookstore Book Haul
At the end of each month we talk about our favorite reads, so it is only fitting that we wrap up 2021 by talking about our favorite reads from the year! We each narrowed it down to our Top 8 reads of the year for y'all. Fun fact, since we both read over a 100… Continue reading Favorite Books of 2021
Despite the fact the two of us are notoriously bad at sticking to TBRs, that has never stopped us from assembling them every so often. Here are the books that we hope to read during 2021. Bree: I've never been all that good at sticking to TBRs, but has that ever stopped me from making… Continue reading SUMMER SPRINT: TBRs For the Rest of 2021
BOOK HAUL TIME had big hopes to post hauls all last year, but that DID NOT happen. You can see my haul for January 2020 here and February & March 2020 here. But then...I did not post any other haul since. Then I got so far behind that it became overwhelming. So here I'm going… Continue reading BOOK HAUL: Tree’s Spring-ish 2021 Book Haul

I feel like one of my defining personality traits is my drive to ask weird questions and find out unusual tidbits (for later regurgitation). So when I read Tree's 2019 Reading Stats post, I was absolutely enthralled with the idea of analyzing my own reading data. I instantly created an (ever-expanding) excel sheet with all… Continue reading MISC: Bree’s 2020 Reading Stats
So as you may or may not know, I'm in graduate school which means I like data and charts and finding weird patterns in stuff. So I get weirdly excited about my reading spreadsheet and sharing any conclusions I can draw from my reading. Here is my post from 2019 in case you're interested? Idk why… Continue reading MISC: Tree’s 2020 Reading Stats
