The publishing world is kicking off 2025 with a bang! The sheer number of books on my TBR that release in January is ridiculous, and so many of them feel like they would make excellent BOTM picks. With so many interesting books coming out in January, I think we’ll see mostly January releases, though I…

December 2024 Book of the Month
The final books of the year have dropped from Book of the Month, and though I’m late getting my write up out, it’s better late than never! Even though I like this month’s picks, I had a hard time deciding on which ones to add to my box. In part because I have copies of…

November 2024 Book of the Month
I cannot believe we only have 2- months left in the year. We’ve been extremely busy with our newborn twins and a toddler, so I’m glad we’re getting to the slow publishing months. November is the unofficially non-fiction month of the year. Maybe non-fiction November is official, I’m not sure, but it is the month…
November 2024 Most Anticipated
Here we are, once again, almost halfway through another month. I always find November to have the least new releases out of all the months. I normally use November to get ‘caught up’ on my TBR but this year I was pleasantly surprised by how many new books are coming out and the first Tuesday…
August 2024 Book of the Month
Another month and another patch of books to pick from! This month we get to choose from 5 main picks and an additional 6 add-ons. There are a couple of repeat authors in the mix and one of our mains is a debut. Of the 11 books to choose from this month, I actually have…
August 2024 BOTM Predictions
Better late than never right! Less than a month until our Twins are here and honestly, we are just swamped with getting things done and ready for their arrival.
