Paiges of Books

Hi! The month starts tomorrow and so I wanted to post my tbr today as well. I'll be doing Trope-ical Reathathon, A challenge for TBR & Beyond Facebook Group, and the Hamilton Event for RR! I am in the middle of four of these, so those will be discussed below. I'm also trying a new way of reading where I will listen to music to enhance the book experience. I'll go over that as well.  Here's the Twitter for trope-ical .    Common Challenges  I don't go for Bingo or anything when I do these.  Absent/ Dead Parent- A Little Princess  Smalltown- Bear Town Multiple Points of View- Crown of Midnight If I have time, I may add With The Fire on High for Coming of Age  Team Challenges  Each team has unique challenges to do for this.

  Hi! It's the end of the month, so I thought I would put my wrap up today.

  Hi! I got a little busy yesterday and I had thought about just skipping this week. I then remembered that links are opened for more than a day, and so I decided to just do my post today. Can't-Wait Wednesday is hosted by  Tressa@wishfulendings . The purpose of this meme is to post a book, usually unpublished, that we can't read to read. This meme is an offshoot of Waiting on Wednesday, which was hosted by  Jill@breakingthespine . This week, I'm featuring Once Upon a Quinceañera by Monica Gomez-Hira. All information comes from Goodreads.  Title: Once Upon a Quinceañera Author: Monica Gomez-Hira  Genre: YA, Contemporary  Expected Publication: March 2nd, 2021 by Harperteen Add to Goodreads:  Here Goodreads Summary Jenny Han meets "Jane the Virgin" in this flashy and fun Own Voices romcom from debut author Monica Gomez-Hira.

  I love the Cars movies, and so when I heard there was going to be a readathon, I knew I needed to participate. This Readathon will be from This Sunday (Feb 28th) to March 6th (the following Saturday). I'm going to link to the host's YouTube Channels so you can find out more info.  Katie host for Team Rusteez ,  Mer for Team Dinoco , and  Kelsey for Team Hostile Takeover Bank . I planned on joining the Lightning McQueen team, but I took a Quiz, and so I'll be joining Team Dinoco. There's a Bingo Board which I'll post below.  My TBR I plan on going to a Reading Sprint or Watch Party if I'm around, so that box will be checked.  The King -Royalty- Fairest by Marissa Meyer. This is a thin novella set in the world of The Lunar Chronicles. It follows Levanna, who is the evil queen, so it definitely fits the Royalty prompt. Because King is the Car representing Team Dinoco, I knew I needed to use his prompt.  Radiator Springs- Found Family- Tales of the Pecu...

  Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana@thatartsyreadergirl . This meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. Each Week, Jana will post a prompt, and we will all respond to the prompt or do our own thing if we want. This week our topic is books that made us laugh, which was submitted by Claire  @bookloverspizza  I thought about this, but I would feature a number of books I talk about a lot on the blog, Instead, I’m going to take the time to talk about some books and authors I plan on reading this year for the first time, or series I plan on finishing. I want to do a round 2 of this post for books that I didn’t mention in this post but that I have on my tbr. I think that all of these books will be 4.5-5 stars for me.   The Authors 1- Angie Thomas I have all three books by Angie Thomas on my TBR. I plan on reading THUG in April, On the Come Up in May, and Concrete Rose in July.  I have a strong feeling I will en...
