Ever since I was a kid, I have been in love with Greek mythology. I don’t know why they appealed to me so much - whether it was the magic, the daring heroes (and it was almost always heroes, not heroines) or just the idea that the world was way older than myself. I remember … Continue reading Best Books Inspired by Greek Mythology

Most excited for June-December 2021
It’s that time of year. The time when I start revising my “books I’m excited for” list. At the beginning of the year, I usually put books that come out within the first few months. But that means I ignore or am ignorant of all the amazing books coming out in the second half of … Continue reading Most excited for June-December 2021
The Jane Austen Experience
So, did you read my review last week about Ladies of the House by Lauren Edmondson? Well, you should (and I'm not like biased or anything.) Did you run out and order it like I did? OK, good. So while you're waiting for it to be released or (if you're reading this AFTER February 2021) … Continue reading The Jane Austen Experience
My 2020 Favorites
I know what you're thinking. "But Cheryl, didn't you already do a retrospective on 2020. You couldn't decide on your favorites so you highlighted all the books you reviewed published in 2020. Right?" Well, yes. But in the past year, I've been writing (somewhat) regularly and I've had a lot of fun. So in my … Continue reading My 2020 Favorites
Looking back at 2020
So it's that time of year. The time when everyone tends to take stock of what they have accomplished in the past year. While many people make New Year's Resolutions, I have always avoided the practice. I tend to find that making those resolutions means I am setting myself up for failure. Instead, I like … Continue reading Looking back at 2020
Looking forward to 2021
It’s that time of year again. The time of year where I get reflective about the year’s past (although is anyone really looking back at 2020 with anything other than disappointment, anger, and contempt?) and I start getting hopeful and excited about the year to come. Last year at this time, I hadn’t written much … Continue reading Looking forward to 2021
Top 5 Not-Yet-Reviewed Enemies-to-Lovers Romance Novels
Writing about The Hating Game has made me think about the sheer number of enemies-to-lovers books I’ve read. And how many I love! So I consulted my partner-in-books, my BFF, who also LOVES this trope, to create a Top 5 list of our favorites! This list is only comprised of books that haven’t (yet) appeared … Continue reading Top 5 Not-Yet-Reviewed Enemies-to-Lovers Romance Novels
UPDATED Top Ten of 2020
So, back in January I wrote a list of the books I was most looking forward to in 2020. Now that 2020 is half over, I’ve managed to find more! More books! More that are coming out in the second half of the year. So without further ado, here’s my UPDATED list of books to … Continue reading UPDATED Top Ten of 2020
The Royal Countdown
Since I discovered that I had read 54 (54, seriously?!) royal books, I figured I could share my list of the Top Ten! Without further ado... The Royal Countdown! All the book covers plus a photo from The Tower of London of the British Crown jewels (I'm not that talented a photographer). Check it out, … Continue reading The Royal Countdown
Looking forward to 2020
Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a wonderful new year! I spent my New Year’s Eve listening to the eight hour fireworks show in Copenhagen, Denmark. Those Danes really love their fireworks! Apparently, Danes can legally buy (professional grade - to my untrained American eye) fireworks during the month of December and then can … Continue reading Looking forward to 2020
