2023 Book Fight!
That’s right, I’m doing it again! Last year’s book fight tournament motivated me to read books I probably wouldn’t have otherwise. I did make a few changes for this year: All the books are from my TBR (no recommendations this time). I’ve grouped them by genre, as best as possible, to make the match ups […]
Book Fight Update
Here it is! The end of the 2022 Book Fight Tournament. Was Polaris Rising my favorite book of the year? It was certainly one of them. Honestly though, the champion slot could have gone to any number of these books. I’ll be doing this again in 2023, because I managed to get a big chunk […]
Book Fight Update
You would think these books would be on complete opposites of the spectrum, but they do have one thing in common: they are both raunchy. One is erotic while the other ribald, so even that similarity only goes so far. Fool is a retelling of Shakespeare’s King Lear from the fool’s perspective. It warmed my […]
Book Fight Update
I actually enjoyed Girls Weekend more than Morning Glory Milking Farm (growing up around cattle tempers your enjoyment of reading sexy Minotaurs), and although Playing for Keeps was entertaining, the idea the heroine was a project the hero needed to fix bothered me. Wolf Girl sent me on a binge through all four books in […]
Book Fight Update
Both of these were good, but Love & Curse Making won because it was light, fun, and hot. It does end with a lot of loose ends, but I wouldn’t call it a cliffhanger. I felt lost through much of Woman of Blood & Bone, only to find out later that it’s a spinoff series. […]
Book Fight Update
It’s going to be very, very hard to beat out Murderbot. In the second installment, Artificial Condition, we get a bit more characterization and a whole new cast of characters. I need to remember to re-read the series before starting book three, since it took me a bit to catch up. The stories end abruptly, […]
Book Fight Update
For some reason I had it in my head that The Love Hypothesis was up against Get A Life, Chloe Brown so I read both of those and only realized my mistake when I went to update my brackets. So I’m a bit out of order here, but that’s okay. Spoiler Alert is on hold […]
Book elimination tournament!
A friend of mine did this and I thought, what a great way to get new book recommendations and get through some of my TBR list, so I stole the idea and ran with it. Matchups were made using random.org. I’m reviewing the 5* reads on my Goodreads account, and will update here when I […]
