Date with Destiny: Owl Crate

by themarlenamarieLeave a Comment on Date with Destiny: Owl Crate

Alright another book box for you! Aren’t you so excited for this one, like I am? Do I have any clue as to what this book is? Nope! Am I excited for the book all the same? YUP. Book boxes bring me such joy, even if I am getting a bunch of things I really have no business holding on to in some cases. I am having an amazing day in general, so I hope you all are too!

July 2020 Owl Crate: Date with Destiny.

I actually write these posts days before they come out, in most cases. Which means that my general mood for today, is the day in which I am writing this. Either way, I’m happy to spread the happiness and good vibes. Good vibes, friends!

July TBR

by themarlenamarieLeave a Comment on July TBR

Alright here is my TBR for July! This month I decided to do series. Like how last month was for classics. This means, in theory, lots and lots of reviews. Why? Because I am going to be reviewing near everything. Nearly, I think at least.

June Reading List

I did far better on my TBR this month actually lol. I knew that I wasn’t going to be able to do a lot for the large books but it’s fine. I cut down a few classics. Plus, The Final Empire was just too good. This list is far from complete, because at some point I stopped tracking everything. And I’m too lazy to go back and figure it all out. Next month I promise, I’ll be far, far better.

Here is what I read in June.

Rebels with a Cause: Owl Crate

I don’t see a reason to stop posting right now, despite the fact that I am not sure its appropriate with the current climate to be talking about things when human lives are being fought for. However, as a Black creator I’m going to keep posting, because this is a good place for me to unload after being tense 24/7 with everything else.

Support BLM. Here for more information. If you are protesting, please be safe.

And now, justly named…

June TBR

by themarlenamarieLeave a Comment on June TBR

Alright, last post for today. I know you’ve gotten so many already. I promise this is it! HAHA. Just my TBR for the month. I have decided to try to keep it simple, I suppose. Classics are my goal for this month, out of the classics that I own. Along with catching up on all the webnovels I’ve been slacking off on. This means two things.

1. I will not be writing reviews for these. At all. Some of these are rereads. Some of them are first reads. If I have quotes I love, I’ll note them but I will not be reviewing them because I just can’t.

2. This means you will probably only be getting one review a week until I get content back up. This includes any series rereads like the Negotiator Trilogy or His Dark Materials.

Anyway, here is to June being more productive for my blog. I have so many things on my blog that I just haven’t posted and here is to be, hopefully, posting it all. Anyway.

The Negotiator Trilogy Reread

by themarlenamarie1 Comment on The Negotiator Trilogy Reread

Alright, here we go.

APRIL: The one series I read for OWLS. It took me a long time to get to reread this series, to be honest. I’ve had it on my shelf for the longest time just starring at me. Anyway, expect more April Book reviews for the next few weeks. And then May will fall after that. I have plans to read only classics (no reviews) in June. So hopefully I’ll read enough next month to make up for June.

MAY: So I didn’t finish these three books in April. I had tried but it didn’t work out, which is fine. I have the last two to read, and I figure I can get them done quick.

MAY Update: I got these two done, hooray! After not reading much of anything for May, book wise, this is amazing. Alright.
