Trans Book Recs!

March 31, 2024 by Mackenzie 4 Comments

Did you know that today, March 31st, is Transgender Day of Visibility? It is a day dedicated to celebrating trans people and raising awareness of the discrimination and violence that the trans community faces every day. To celebrate, I’m sharing a trans book rec list that I posted on my bookstagram a few days ago! You can find the specific post here on Instagram (and it is on Twitter/X here). These are books that feature trans characters or are written by trans authors (and here I am including nonbinary identities under the term trans). I’ve included a good mix of books I’ve read and books on my TBR, and have a few upcoming releases as well! So let’s get to the list!!

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!

#SciFiMonth2023 – Sunday Subgenre: SciFantasy

November 5, 2023 by Mackenzie 4 Comments

Happy Sunday everyone! During SciFi Month, Sundays are all about different subgenres of science fiction. Today we have my FAVORITE, which is SciFantasy aka science fantasy. My two favorite genres mashed into one!! I’ve actually talked about this subgenre before, on an installment of The Happy Place 5. All of the ones I included in that post I’ve put here, with a few more!

#SciFiMonth2023 – Best Laid Plans (SciFi Month TBR)

November 1, 2023 by Mackenzie 12 Comments

Happy November friends! And welcome to another edition of #SciFiMonth, which is run by imyril (There’s Always Room For One More), Lisa (Dear Geek Place), Annemieke (A Dance With Books), and Mayri (BookForager). If you want to know more about it, check out imyril’s intro post here! I’ve “taken part” in SciFi Month the past two years, but I put that in quotes because I think both years I only posted one or two posts during the whole month haha. Maybe this time it sticks?? Stay tuned to see how I do. But anyway, as always, the first post of the month is your SciFi Month TBR. I’m going to highlight a few books that I definitely want to read. And then I’ll also mention some others on my TBR that I’m excited for! Also – if you saw any of these on my TBR in years past….NO YOU DIDN’T.

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!
