TBR Challenge January 2022 – Quickie

We’re midway through January 2022, and I still feel like I’m playing catch-up from 2021.  Who’s with me? The “Quickie”  TBR theme was exactly what I needed because my brain just doesn’t have bandwidth for more. I used this month to try a novella from a 2019 trilogy I’ve been meaning to read while Caz…

December 2021 TBR Challenge – Festive

I love that this year’s TBR Challenge for December is not entirely Christmas. We just have to be “festive” and there are so many ways to do that. This year, Caz went for a magical Christmas story, while Lynn sank into a sweet Hanukkah romance she’s been wanted to read for a while. Both were…

February 2021 TBR Challenge – New-To-You Author

I think folks sometimes underestimate just how huge the romance genre is. I’ve been reviewing romance since I was in my 20s, and I’ve been reading longer than that. Even so, there are still PLENTY of new-to-me authors. Caz tried a new historical, and after several false starts, I made it through a new-to-me romantic…

February 2020 TBR Challenge – Friends

This month’s TBR Challenge theme is simply “friends,” which is open-ended enough to take in various directions. One could read a friends-to-lovers book or, as Lynn did, read a book where the friends of a lead character play an important role in his/her life. Caz and Lynn took this challenge in slightly different directions, but…

December TBR Challenge – Holiday Romances (any holiday!)

We’ve reached the end of another year (already?!), and it’s time for the holiday romance portion of TBR Challenge. This month we’re challenged to read a romance set during any holiday. One year Lynn was able to find a Mardi Gras romance, but otherwise Christmas still seems to dominate the holiday market.

October TBR Challenge – Paranormal or Romantic Suspense

This month’s TBR prompt, Paranormal or Romantic Suspense, is always fun. Both subgenres cover a lot of ground, so there can be an embarrassment of riches when it comes to picking out something to read. This time around, rather than pick one subgenre, Caz went with both and read a paranormal romantic suspense novel.Lynn, on…

September TBR Challenge – Kickin’ It Old School

This month’s TBR Challenge prompt invites us to go into the Wayback Machine, or at least the Kinda Wayback Machine. Tasked with reading something more than ten years old, we both dug into our book stacks. Caz read a classic category novel by Mary Burchell, while Lynn went with a somewhat newer (though not quite…
