What's On My Netgalley Shelf?

One of the worst parts of my extended reading slump is that I just get more and more behind on my NetGalley review copies. I haven't been fully caught up since last summer. I've done a bit better - I got through all of the ones that had June 2018 publication dates, and posted reviews for them here - but there are still a lot that I need to get to!

I'm posting this as a way to hold myself accountable. I fully expect all of these books to, at the very least, be on the list of books I read in 2018. I might not be posting full reviews here for the ones that were published a while ago, but I'll definitely be reviewing them on Goodreads! Here are the ten that I need to get to:


Which of these books should I read first? Tell me in the comments!

    Oof! I don’t even want to think about my netgalley right now 🙈 I also have there’s someone inside your house on mine though! I think it could be an easy one to knock out seeing as it’s a short thriller.

      I'm really glad that a lot of the books on my shelf are short! And now that it's about to be fall I'm in the mood for thrillers again...might be time to knock that one out!

    I Stop Somewhere was really emotional and painful, and also, very good. I liked More Than We Can Tell. Not as much as the first book, but I loved learning more about Rev. I am reading See All the Stars this week, so I am hoping it's good.

      Good to hear that you liked both of those! I have high hopes for them.

Ten Books I Need More People to Love

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature at The Broke and Bookish. This week's theme: Top Ten Underrated/Hidden Gem Books You've Read in the Past Year or So. One of my favorite things to do is get other people to read books I love. That way, I can discuss the boo ks with them, and if I know their tastes well enough, I know I'm givin g them something that they'll love! Unfortunately, I can't do this with the entire world. And that means that there are books that I've really enjoyed t hat just aren't widely loved. Why ? I don't know. And that's why I spend so much time trying to get other people to read them. Here are ten books I've read some what recently that I think really deserve some m ore lo ve.

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature at The Broke a nd the Bookish . This week's theme : most an ti cipated reads for the first half of 2017. Wow, it's been ages since I've done a most anticipated list! In case you were wondering, my excitement for upcoming books is a s high as ever. It was so hard narrowing this list down to just ten, but I think I figured out the ten books that I'm most excited for in the first half of next year! I have a good mix of sequels and standalones (but onl y one debut, so there won't b e a lo t of overlap wi th the de buts TTT in a few weeks). Here are some of the books that I just can't contain my excitement about : OUR OWN PRIVATE UNIVERSE by Robin Talley - January 31: I love Robin Talley, and this book sounds like it's going to be so good! And it's going to have so much intersectionality! And the colors on that cover are just so aesthetically pleasing. DREAMLAND BURNING by Jennifer Latham - February

In Which I Consider My Ideal Post Length

I seem to be constantly going back and forth between having too many post ideas and not having enough. The thing is, though, that when I don't have a lot of ideas, it usually just means that I don't think I have enough to say about anything to actually make a post. Which poses an interesting question: how long do posts need to be? In particular, I'm thinking about discussion posts. I have a lot of bookish things I want to discuss, and discussion posts seem like one of the best ways to share my thoughts. But sometimes, my thoughts aren't fully-formed, or aren't that complex. I usually shy away from writing about those ideas because I don't think I have enough material to justify a post. But why don't I think I have enough? I've been a little behind on wr iting posts in advance, so it seem ed like I was running into th is question more and more often. And after a while of thinking about that, I had m y little breakthrough : I'm thinking a
