Since my last post I've made a slew of bad reading decisions & I'm now overwhelmed by the suddenly heavy work load. Procrastination is real and it sucks.
November Update – Week 3
Author: Mare
Dragons, Dragons, and more Dragons – Dragon Kin Series by G.A. Aiken
As readers we all have moments when we crave something new. Something different. Something that tears our favorite tropes list to pieces. I don't know if it was boredom or fate that had me scrolling through Amazon on a late night but the results were magical.
After Halloween comes Christmas. Right? – In A Holidaze Book Ramble
Normally I like my romance with a side of mystery and other worldly danger and maybe I was just craving some good old fashion drama. It also could have been the fact that the main characters name is Mae and I kept reading it as Mare (that's my nickname). I'm not even going to touch on where my escapism takes me.
Mini Review: Cemetery Boys by Aiden Thomas
This post has been a long time coming. As you know I struggled getting into this story but once. I was in I was hooked. Cemetery Boys has dug its way into my soul. Aiden Thomas is a phenomenal author. Aiden has woven culture, gender identity, and other current social justice issues together to create a timeless paranormal story.
October Wrap up & November TBR
I had such high hopes for October but life had other plans. I failed to complete my four book tbr for October. Not because I didn't have the time to read said books but because like I always I got distracted. I completely disregarding my tbr and started a new series ( I'll be making a separate post on that adventure). I'm not even going to talk about my many failed attempts to get back into anime this month. At this point I'm paying Crunchyroll to watch me. Has this become a book blog? Am I really allowing myself to get sucked into one niche? How many licks does it take to get to the center on a tootsie pop? The world may never know.

The Glass family is young, interracial, and interspecies. The mom Morgan is badass but also soft, caring, and totally a momma bear. I think it's important to point that out because too many times women are portrayed as either badass and emotionless or soft and weak. I liked that Morgan had every trait and was confident in her relationship with her husband.
Mini Review: Cheat(er) Code
While reading other reviews for this graphic novel I've become enlighten. There is an actual genre for these kind of graphic novels. Homoerotic! I was just tickled pink to come across this term and honestly that set my mood while I was reading this. I feel like I should add a disclaimer here. Letting the younger audience as well as any parents look to get graphic novels for their kids that this graphic novel is not suitable for children.
Hallotober Tag
This is my first time doing a tag post. Irina from drunkenanimeblog.com responded to this tag and basically said anyone could to do it... so I'm doing it.
Weekly Update 10/18/2020
Let's just say this week has not been great. My productivity is shot. I spent a night in the ER which gave me anxiety. There's something about getting your temperature taken seven times that makes you think you have Covid even though you know you don't.
