About

Welcome to this little corner of the internet where I get to share my thoughts about the books I read. Feel free to call me lisette. I've been blogging for many years now and still have not completely perfected the art of blogging. If anything, I've made peace with the fact that I may never.... Continue Reading →

reading: It Started in Budapest by Julie Daines

After being on a Netgalley ratio streak earlier this year, things have slowed down. I guess you could say I burned myself out a bit. But then I picked up this book and while it didn’t help it was another Netgalley title off my shelf (one of my oldest actually! so I’m really happy to... Continue Reading →

WWW Wednesday (3.25.26/#5)

Apparently the last time I wrote one of these was back in September! That's...half a year ago. Wow. But I was in a bit of a slump in 2025 and after January, I was starting to feel I was slowly going back. Somehow, I think I'm safe from the slump clutches (although I'm only actively...

reading: The Lost Sunday by Ileana Surducan

I realized I never shared my first read of the year! Or the first book I finished because I have a vague image of me reading this on the couch as I also read another book. Probably These Vengeful Wishes, since I finished them around the same time. From creator Ileana Surducan (Nor’s Holiday) comes... Continue Reading →

Netgalley Check-In #11

I was debating writing this post because I haven't really been on Netgalley, requesting books (which is really good!), but I did make a few improvement so I thought, if not now, when? So here we are again, looking at my backlog. Feedback Ratio: 76% (+5%!!) I DID THAT!! I am so close to the... Continue Reading →

reading: What Beauty There Is by Cory Anderson

While looking through my NetGalley backlog, I wondered if there were any easier titles to read. I was thinking probably a romance title and with this cover, I thought I found what I was looking for. How wrong I’d been…LOL. To understand the truth, you have to start at the beginning.Ava Bardem lives in isolation,... Continue Reading →

spotlight: Mark of the Warrior (#2) by Shannon Lee and Fonda Lee

Last Wednesday I was bored out of my mind and then stumbled upon this amazing news!! I feel like I didn't hear ANYONE talk about Breath of the Dragon, which fair, it was a bit of a slow read, but it was so good!! I think I read it before it was even published (thanks... Continue Reading →

New Year’s Book Tag (2026)

I found this book tag on the blog booksare42 and since it was simple and fun, I thought I'd answer the questions. How many books are you planning to read in 2026? I already mentioned that my goal is 60 books (it always is), but I'll share some more details. I want to read 60... Continue Reading →

January 2026 Recap

How long has it been since I last posted one of these? Too long. There's something very satisfying about finally posting one of these on time. And with actual substance. If you're new to these: Hello, here's where I give a monthly recap (about everything I've been up to) and give a few future monthly goals... Continue Reading →
