It's not nearly as dramatic as it sounds. Yes, in our beloved dystopian series, The Hunger Games, the Quarter Quell was a nightmare for our heroine Katniss and her compatriots, but obviously my version is not nearly as bad (we aren't gathering up a bunch of beloved celebs and pitting them against each other to [...]
Author: Samantha D.
Hey ya'll! My name is Samantha and I am a 28 year old librarian from Long Island, New York. I love books, movies and board/card games. I am extremely family oriented, and spend a lot of time with my three younger brothers, and my parents.
I started a book blog in October of 2017 to share my love of books with like-minded people. The rest of my posts are just for fun, and my own personal sanity. I am a dog mom to the most obnoxious one year old Catahoula Leopard dog you can ever imagine (and if you have never heard of that breed, I recommend looking it up).
I am always willing to chat, especially about books, don't hesitate to reach out :]
Add me on Goodreads, or follow me on Twitter/Tumblr if you like what I've got to say!
Graphic Novel Read-a-thon?
Anyone who knows me knows, I don't do read-a-thons. Unfortunately, I am much too busy, and read WAY too slowly to actually read during a designated time period. Pair that with the pressure of reading a lot in a little amount of time, and you have a recipe for disaster. However, I will say that [...]
I’m Back Baby! (Maybe)
I haven't posted since... woof.. APRIL! and I quite honestly haven't been on this website in weeks prior to that. 2020 is kicking my ass to be perfectly honest, but I am trying to find a little light in this dark room. I have so much to share with you! AND for those who may [...]
April 2020 New Releases On My Radar
Hello lovlies! We are gearing up for a new month of reading and with that comes brand new shiny releases! With the weight of the world on our shoulders, many people have turned (back) to reading and so it felt worthwhile to compile some new books that are coming out this month as a way [...]
February 2020 – A Month in Review
February man. For being the shortest month of the year, it sure does take a toll on you! I got a lot of reading done this month which is super surprising but considering that I am still in the interviewing processes on getting a job, it also makes sense. In the very near future (we [...]
March Reading Plans & My First Bookopoly!
True to my word, I really did not read many of the books that I placed on my February TBR - I actually only read two of them. BUT that was also me kind of shooting in the dark and guessing what I would be in the mood for. THIS month is going to be [...]
What I’ve Been Into Lately – Music
Here's the thing. I went into this blogging journey over 2 years ago deadset on the fact that this was strictly a bookish place, and no other kind of content would be discussed here. Afterall, I had a "personal" blog I could do top movie countdowns, breakdowns of my favorite songs from specific artists, etc. [...]
January 2020 – Month in Review
I love that meme that says, "January has been a tough year, but we made it through." I really felt that. January was hard in many ways this year. I worked and lived out of a bag for two weeks, flew across the country to a new life with my husband and dog, and spent [...]
February Reading Plans
Now you may have noticed my use of "plans" in place of "TBR." The thing is, I never seem to be able to stick with a TBR. I absolutely commend those who thrive that way, and can stick to a list, but I am just not one of those people. Instead, I would like to [...]
Reading in 2020: Planning and Organizing
Sadly, life has become a bit more complicated in the last couple months and so this hobby blog has taken a backseat to my everyday routine. But I've still been reading! Actually, I've already broken and ditched some of my 2020 goals (which you can see here) BUT I have been keeping up pretty well [...]
