2. Reasons Why Fictional Boyfriends Are Just Better...

 By Becca... So, look, you guys all know that I'm pretty obsessed with some fictional boy toys, right? I mean, when I really love a book, it's because the hottie hero totes stole my heart and soul. I have literally like 50+ book boyfriends.  Why is that? Well, now that I'm officially the big two five (that's 25), I've found myself thrust back into the dating world, much like any typical

This week's topic is Ten SIX Books I Recently Enjoyed That Were Out Of My Comfort Zone...which was kind of difficult, because I don't really not read books if they are out of my comfort zone?

8. So You Think You're A 'Book Pusher'...

By Becca... So you think you may be a Book Pusher?  Well, I've got some good news for you (and maybe some bad), because if you didn't know, I am a Book Pusher. I have been called a Book Pusher since my very early days of book blogging. This makes it sound like people were calling me something bad, but I love being a Book Pusher, and personally I think fellow Book Pushers should come together

10. 11 Book I DNF'd in 2015

by Elisa All the books: each one I picked-up, I would finish, simply on principle. But that was a stupid, suffocating principle, and following Andye’s example, I finally gave myself permission to quit books I didn’t like. On the flip-side, I now suffer from this bookish problem, so seriously described by Becca. The book-quitters have a hard time knowing what to bother sticking-with when

We'd love to hear what your favorites of the year were! Hope you find something here that resonates with

from Bec's... Recently, (more like the last six months or so, but hey, who's counting?) I've had a hard time reading. Not necessarily that I couldn't read or didn't want to. I DESPERATELY WANT TO.

20. On the Sad Lack of Finale Kissing #wewantmorekissing

I've been talking a lot, especially with Jen from Jenuine Cupcakes, about the sad lack of kissing in the books that we read. How many times have I experienced this frustration: There is this epic romantic tension. The two love interests just can't seem to come together for one reason or another. The suspense is absolutely killing me (but I love it). Then FINALLY, after hundreds of pages, they
