Two friends united against their massive TBRs
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
2020 has been a year full of surprises, most them them, not great. You would think, nothing would surprise me at this point. But, still some books managed to surprise me. My favorite books are the ones that I have no expectations for that BLOW ME AWAY. I love going into a story and hitting… Continue reading BLOGMAS DAY NINE: Books That Surprised Me

Are these Mini Review titles getting out of hand yet? I started posting more extensive book reviews on Bookstagram this year. This is in part me trying to reinvent my Bookstagram content since I've been on the platform forever, but also I got rid of monthly mini reviews on the blog and sometimes just want… Continue reading MINI REVIEWS: Books I Reviewed on Instagram But Not On the Blog – YA Books Edition
As we approach the end of the year, we are looking at all the TBRs we set throughout 2020 and wondering why we even bothered to make them. We did this post at the beginning of the year, so check it out if you want to see our lofty goals (that we absolutely faceplanted on)! Bree:… Continue reading BLOGTOBER DAY TWO: Books We Want to Finish In 2020
The Only Plane In the Sky by Garrett M. Graff Publication Date: September 10, 2019 I rarely review nonfiction because it can be subjective based on interests and honestly I do not usually have a ton to say, except, "I learned a lot" or "this was good". But, I want to talk about The Only Plane… Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: The Only Plane in the Sky
We have seen variations of ideas like this around from reading 20 new books to 20 books on your physical TBR to 20 backlist books. We sort of combined them all and just listed 20 books that we want to read this year (10 each). We're both terrible at making TBRs so who knows if… Continue reading MISC: 20 Books we Want to Read in 2020
