I reread my favorite series…and it was even better the second time!

Click covers for my original reviews! Holy cow, what an emotional rollercoaster! I was fully prepared to be overcome by feels jumping back in. The second time around I feel like I appreciated the secondary and supporting characters so much more. I barely remembered any of them the first time around because I was so obsessed with Buruu and Yukiko! I really enjoyed taking the time to focus on the finer points of this book. I really had time to […]

Should I Change Heartbeat Weekly into Heartbeat Monthly?

Should I Change Heartbeat Weekly into Heartbeat Monthly?
Posted by Jessi (Geo) on January 18, 2018 | 5 Comments

I’ve been thinking lately about switching over from weekly wrap ups to monthly wrap ups. I don’t post consistently every week, so my hauls tend to be every month anyway. Last year they tended to be every other month. So it’s kind of pointless to name it ‘weekly!’ I really want to start wrapping up books I read, books I reviewed, and some other stats and bookish things (including bookstagram!) in my wrap ups as well, and it seems redundant […]

2018 Goals & Resolutions

2018 Goals & Resolutions
Posted by Jessi (Geo) on January 10, 2018 | 7 Comments

I typically hate making New Year’s resolutions because it’s my belief that you should do so throughout the whole year! But I do still love them because it’s good motivation! Reading resolutions Read more. Last year I only read twenty books. That is positively abysmal for me!! I used to read 100+ books a year, and at my peak I read almost 150. I set my Goodreads challenge goal at 25 so that I won’t be disappointed if I fall […]

My Most Anticipated Releases of 2018

My Most Anticipated Releases of 2018
Posted by Jessi (Geo) on December 28, 2017 | 3 Comments

  Lifel1k3 by Jay Kristoff – I would sell my firstborn child for this book. I’d anticipate anything by Jay (hence why Obsidio is #2 on this list) but a promise of a totally new and exciting world from him is to DIE for! Obsidio by Jay Kristoff & Amie Kaufman – I can’t get enough of the Illuminae Files, it’s one of my all time fave series! Iron Gold by Pierce Brown – another sequel in an all time […]

New(ish) Candle Business! (which I keep meaning to talk about)

New(ish) Candle Business! (which I keep meaning to talk about)
Posted by Jessi (Geo) on March 8, 2017 | 0 Comments

I have been meaning to make this post ever since I started back in October – it was originally a “where I’ve been post” because this is 1/2 of the reason I disappeared (and kind of fell off the face of the planet) for a couple of months. (The other 1/2 is my new library which I will get to in a separate post!) Back in fall last year, I was spending a FORTUNE on bookish candles. THE OBSESSION IS […]
