Book Haul!!!

Seriously what is better than buying new books. Every time I get book mail it’s like opening presents on Christmas or my birthday!

After my unhaul I felt that it was only right to replace all of the books that I got rid of so 10 new books have found a home on my shelves

Read a Book Day: My friends Share Their Favourite Books

thebookcorps

Hi all!

Today is Read a Book day, where everyone should spend the day reading books! I know that’s what I’m going to do — I’m planning on reading as much of my ARC of The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue as possible. What are you planning on reading?

But to celebrate, I thought it would be fun if I asked my friends to recommend one of their favourite books or a recent read they loved, and they obliged me! A million thanks to my friends for helping with this post … especially because I gave them such short notice 😅.

So here are my lovely friends’ book recommendations!

Silvia recommends Depart, Depart!by Sim Kern

Silvia says: Depart, Depart! is a cli-fi novella about a Jewish trans man who becomes a refugee after a massive climate disaster hits Houston. The lines between climate dystopia and contemporary fiction are so…

Problematic Authors | Part 2

Hey friends,

So I feel like this will stir the pot….. apparently it already has. So I want to reiterate that these are my personal opinions. I have made the decision to stop supporting these authors for reasons that I will explain.

I am not shaming or judging anyone who likes these authors and if either of these are your favorites I encourage you to have an open discussion with me.

That being said, in this video I talk about why I no longer support Cassandra Clare or J.K. Rowling.

The Game | Season 1

Y’all. I only watched bits and pieces of The Game when it first came out and naturally I’ve heard about some of the events that take place but I’ve only finished season 1 so far and THIS SHIT IS TRASH!!!

Like Derwin is literally trash and Melanie should have left his ass 3 times already so I understand how there’s so many seasons.

Derwin is basically a fuck boy. If he doesn’t get his way he throws a temper tantrum and tries to make it Melanie’s fault. When he said she could move out, she should’ve left his ass. When he got mad at her for not wanting to move across the country while she’s in the middle of med school, she should’ve left his ass. She finally did after finding out that he cheated but that’s only season one!! How? Make it make sense. And from my understanding they get back together at some point and I just don’t see how that was even an option.

It couldn’t be me

Book Review | Get a Life, Chloe Brown

Hi friends,

Y’all know I’m not big on romance so I tried going into this with an open mind. Over the past few months I had been thinking about giving romance another try and also wanted to try to read romance by Black authors.

Ms. Talia Hibbert did the damn thing because I was blown away by how much I genuinely enjoyed reading this book. It’s funny, it’s sexy, the characters are so well written and she addresses very important topics in such a meaningful way.

If you are a romance fan, I highly recommend this book. 5 stars!

Book Review | Truly Devious

Hi friends,

Here is my review of Truly Devious by Maureen Johnson

I had such high hopes for this book but unfortunately, this was just a two star read for me. I would have never thought that I could find a murder mystery boring. In my opinion the pace is way too slow and I will not be continuing the series
