Black Friday means Decking the Halls and listening to the Jackson 5 Christmas album. Which also means (forced) Holiday 2025 pictures coming soon 🎄🎅🏾🎁🤣💚❤️ Happy Holidays y’all!

That awkward moment when your husband appears out of nowhere to talk and you’re listening to a book where people are visiting Doll Island 🫣🫣🫣 #IYKYK was this close 🤏🏾 to punching him 🤦🏾‍♀️😂

I may or may not have just watched the OG I Know What You Did Last Summer, OG Halloween, and the OG Scream. In August. Every year my Slasher-athon gets earlier and earlier lol SummerWeen is in full effect lol

A book review layout featuring the cover of "Glory Be" -DANIELLE ARCENEAUX on a tablet, with soft peach and pink background. arrows around the book with the following: Mystery Mother/Daughter Duo Red Hat Club

I am so glad that Nikki (@take_me_awayyy) recommended this mystery book because it had me cackling out loud. Glory is a Catholic and part of the Red Hat Society in Lafayette, Lousiana. She is a bit of an outsider in the group due to her business, being a bookie. She is best friends with a woman who joined the nunnery who supposedly committed suicide. Glory’s daughter is in town due to some personal issues that happened in her life, and she is an attorney. She teamed up with her mom to figure out what happened to Glory B’s friend. They get caught up in a dog fighting enterprise, a drug dealer, someone who is stealing and trying to get Glory kicked out of her home and so much more. This book also talks about mental health, grief, love, and loneliness. I cannot wait for the next book in the series.

Every time I request something from Netgalley and say its because of the cover or the title if its a pun, I always immediately think they're going to deny me due to me being unserious lol

Me: “I can’t believe I’m packing so early for this trip!”
My mom: “Girl you leave on Tuesday night/Wednesday morning…. You are not ‘packing early’ 🤨”
*Compared to what I usually do I am 🫣😭🙃🤣😂

My “mission” to make everyone read The Kiss Countdown is working 😂🫶🏾🚀

Oooohhh what have you read so far? Maybe I can look at one of those lol

First response! & That’ll work! I’ll let you know what I choose lol thank you!

#37 on the 52 Book Club Challenge is: GENRE chosen for you by someone else..... So someone pick me a random GENRE. For context, I usually read Horror, Mysteries/Thrillers, and Romance if you want to pick something different.

Imagine having to get off line to finish a book about being chronically online lol Anyway, y'all go read Love in 280 Characters or Less lol #YALibrarian

Not a ratio but they have a shelf saying what you’ve reviewed and what you haven’t. I always just figure it out on my own. Which I should probs stop doing lol

Me: I really need to fix this Netgalley/Edelweiss ratio of mine.

Also Me: *first sign of an inconveience* Ugh I'm in a bad mood. *goes on a requesting spree...........*

Why am I like this? lol

This week was so bad I had to take a mental health day tomorrow. Here’s to another long weekend 🫶🏾

Just when I was getting comfortable on my blog, I had to make some more changes.....😁🤣🫶🏾 bit.ly/422UMIU

One of the rungs on my metal wicker chair busted 😭 So now I need some good reading chair recommendations! Tell me what you have and where it’s from!

Thank you!

It's happeninggggggggggg! I'll see you soon Philly! Linc Tour Loading.... (Still can't believe I'll get to see the Lombardis in person!) #GoBirds

*le sigh* I've hit my first slump of the year. I keep adding more books to my "Currently Reading" shelf and not finishing any of them.

Perfect. That'll work! Thank you so much lol I know this was random!

Ah Thank you, but I read that one. Can you rec a comic or graphic novel?

It asks specifically for a bookseller. Thanks tho!

I need a bookseller to recommend me a book for my Reading Challenge. I read anything, but horror, romance, and thrillers are always a win for me 👀

……I need to know why this happened 🤣🤣🤣

🙌🏾Thank you!

Starting 2025 off with a bang! 😭😭😭 This time last year I got a no from this same program. Persistence is 🔑

I DNFed this one too 🤣

That’s about the time I DNFed too.

This is the most werewolf lore if I’ve ever read. Good luck 🙌🏽 lol
