But ANYway, I had a pretty good reading month!! And I actually watched a lot of tv and movies too. Let’s get into it so I can share all the things with you!

Monday Minis – September 25th: Kindle Unlimited Reads (pt. 1)

September 25, 2023 by Mackenzie 4 Comments

Once again I have failed at doing regular Monday Minis posts haha. It seems I managed to do one in 2021, and one in 2022. So I guess this is my one for 2023!! Though I’m going to try to be better…BUT NO PROMISES. Seeing as how well it worked out last year when I said “maybe I can get myself to do this again.”

Beginning last month, I got a free trial of Kindle Unlimited, so for the past few weeks I’ve mostly been reading books from there! I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to write some reviews for what I’ve read. Today I’m just going to talk about 5 of my reads. I’ll try to do another Monday Mini next week with a few more of my favs!

The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy

book opened on white surface selective focus photography
September 10, 2022 by Ri No Comments

I’m not the biggest reader of romance but The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy had the perfect amount of it for me to be hooked. This book is for fans of the Sunshine/Grumpy enemies-to-lovers pairing, slow burn romance, and a relationship that grows through letters. The pen pal aspect of the story was probably what drew me in the most and the fact that it’s set in a world with marshals, undertakers, and lost souls possessing cadavers.

Monday Minis – August 15th: Recent Romance Reads

August 15, 2022 by Mackenzie 1 Comment

Soooo this was meant to be a regular blog post series but apparently the last one I did was in 2019. THREE YEARS AGO. Whoops. But maybe I can get myself to do this again haha. I do love doing mini reviews! And I personally love reading shorter reviews, so I hope some of you do as well. This post will be about my 4 most recent reads, which all happen to be romance reads! Well okay, technically one of them I’d categorize as fantasy, if I had to pick a single genre. But it fits well into the “romance fantasy” genre mix. And one of them is a romance tinged with fantasy. I just can’t get away from fantasy for too long okay?? But anyway, I loved all of these! So let’s get into it.

Pondathon II: Final Summary!

June 9, 2022 by Mackenzie 2 Comments

The second Pondathon has now come to an end! Okay fine, it ended like 3+ weeks ago but I’ve been in a blogging slump. So I’m just now posting my final summary for Pondathon II. Time isn’t real! I can post things whenever I want! Anyway, I had so much fun with this readathon. I read so many amazing books, and had a BLAST creating my garden. Just wait until you see my final garden at the end!!

A few notes:

  • All of the Pondathon graphics were created by CW of The Quiet Pond and belong to her!
  • Find my intro post about joining Pondathon II here!
