    When I submitted my application for an advance reader copy (ARC) of this book, I knew I already had two other ARCs on my schedule to read and review for their release within the next week. (The Call of Wind releases on Friday, August 29th and Isle of Ember releases Tuesday, September 2nd.) Still, that…

    I have anxiously been awaiting the release of Isle of Ember since I read the first book of the series back in April. As soon as I’d finished the advance reader copy (ARC) of that one, I let the author know how much I’d loved it and told her to please sign me up for…

    I was very excited to be approved as an ARC (advance reader copy) reader for The Call of Wind by K. R. House. For a while now, I’ve been following her journey toward publication on TikTok. In addition to her videos about the process, she also makes a game of creating magic systems on the…

    For a while now, I’ve been connected with Alyson Dawn on TikTok because we have a mutual love of books and stories. Every so often, I would see her post about a book she was working on writing. Everything she said about it piqued my interest. When she put word out that it was ready…

    We’ve reached July 7, and that means we’ve made it through the first week of a new month! Summer is always far busier than I expect it to be, but I’m still getting some good reading done. I finished off the book I’d started last week then dove directly into its sequel. The latter will…

    It’s June 30, the last day of the month. Summer is fully underway and it has been hot. I’ve gotten to spend some time reading in the shade while my daughter splashes in her pool. I’ll admit there’s also been some hiding in the air conditioned spaces with books too. This week I read through…

    We’ve already reached June 23: my birthday! My daughter is officially on her summer break and we’re getting into the swing of this season. Just yesterday I spent the day wandering Cape Cod and visiting shops on The Cape and Islands Book Store Trail. Over this past week, I managed to off the book I’d…

    We’ve already reached June 16! This month is really flying by. We’re now only a week away from my birthday! My daughter has finished her last week of the school year, and I just bought a car over the weekend. I’m not sure how I found any reading time, but I did. This week I…

    The first full week of June is complete and we’ve reached June 9. Excluding audiobooks, beta reads, and my daughter’s storytime, I actually only read one book this week. That’s a first since I started my weekly series! My only sister’s wedding to her partner of 12 years took priority over my usual reading time,…

    A new month is upon us! We’ve reached June 2, the first Monday of the new month. This week, I got to two ARCs (advance reader copies) that I’ve really been looking forward to. The first was a sequel to a book I had a lot of fun with. The second had a synopsis I…
