     Hello and how are you guys? I hope you all are doing good I have had a very good day myself. I've been very busy because I had to work so I'm tired but, I want to get this post done. Doing my top ten books of the year this time has been very different because I didn't give 5 stars to more than 10 books this whole year so I couldn't really do versus battles to figure out my top ten because that would only kind of change the order not which ones are mentioned . So for this one I'm not even going to number them because they are kind of all interchangeable but, these have been my favorite reads of the year. With that being said lets get down to business and talk about the books! Title: The Eyes of The Dragon Author: Stephen King Genre: YA/Fantasy Rating: 5 stars Synopsis: A kingdom is in turmoil as the old king dies, murdered by a strange and horrible poison .

       Hi you guys! I hope you had a good day! My day was pretty good . I did some cleaning but, other than that I mostly rested and did some reading and diamond painting. Yes, I love to do crafts too! However I did tell you guys I would be back with my December TBR so here we go!       Firstly , it being the end of the year I kinda just want to pick some easy reads. Partly because I recently read two roughly 500 page books. Also partly because I have some serious non-fiction reads planned for next month. So yeah I just want to chill for a minute and not read anything huge. In fact I'm mostly reading graphic novels this month.      So the following is my TBR for the coming month. 1. Title : Preacher Book Five: Small Town Blues Author: Garth Ennis Genre: Graphic Novel Pages : 366   I really want to finish my Preacher re-read this month . I love the comic series . It's just crazy fun and a blast to read. I almost have this one co...

             Hello and how are you guys doing tonight? I hope you all are having a good night. My day has been pretty good. My husband and I went and looked at new places to live and we found some that we liked. After that we went grocery shopping and I watched the new episode of Chucky which was pretty good.        Now, I want to do some work on my blog! I have finished reading Preacher and started reading Billy Summers by Stephen King. I realize it's been a minute since I posted on here but , my work schedule was pretty busy.

       Hello and how are you guys doing? I'm super tired because kiddo kept us up a lot of the night and then I had to go into work today. So yeah I'm exhausted and running on caffeine. That being said I want to get this TBR up because I have been planning it for awhile.       All of that being said, no Bookopolly this month and maybe no Bookopolly next month. I wanted to pick out just spooky books for the fall season and that's pretty much what I have done. Also, this TBR list is for both this month and next month most likely because what I don't finish this month I'm going to keep reading next month. So now lets get to the book list! 1. The Adventures of Little Bean by Ageno H. Monica  This is a children's book and it was given to me by the author to review. My kiddo and I are going to make a story time out of it tomorrow and I should have a review up either tomorrow afternoon or Thursday morning something like that. I hope it's good, it lo...

Title: Blood Moon Author: Joseph Battaglia Genre: Mystery/Horror Page: 220  Rating: 3 stars My Thoughts On The Book: This book was a good kick off for the spooky season . It was a quick read and easy to get into. It's a mystery involving werewolves and some murders that happen and it's an ok read. I do however think somethings were rushed ...

        Hello and how are you guys? I have had an eye infection so it's taken me way longer than it should have to finish this book but, the good news is I'm fully recovered! So that's a good thing.

          Hello everyone! How have you all been! I hope you all have had a good day. I have had a fun day with my family . We mostly stayed at the house because we wanted to rest but, my husband went and got pizza, cheesy bread, and a desert pizza and we ate that and pop corn and watched The Jay and Silent Bob reboot . It was a very fun time and nice day!      While I have the chance I want to post my September TBR. Which I think it will be an interesting one . So let's get to the discussion of books shall we?    First up on my TBR list we have Blood Moon by Joseph Battaglia. This is Mr. Battaglia's first book and he sent it to me to review on the blog. It sounds really interesting and it involves murders, dog men, and the FBI. I have already started reading it and a review will be up in a few more days.        Second on my TBR list is Preacher Book Three by Garth Ennis. This is obviously a continuation of my Preacher...

     Hello and how are you guys? I'm doing pretty good. It was a busy work day but now I'm chilling out at the house.  I have fixed me some of the Some Beach Ole Smokey Moonshine that I bought while on vacation and now I'm kicking back and I want to write my reading wrap up for last month. So lets get to this !  #1. Title : The Light Fantastic Author: Terry Pratchett Genre: Fantasy Rating: 3.5 stars Pages: 270 My thoughts on the book: I thought this book was a decent read . I did like it and I love Terry Pretchett's sense of humor. However, I didn't think it was as good as the first book in the series and that's why I gave it 3.5 stars. I still want to check out the rest of the series though because this story is really funny and so strange ! #2. Title: Preacher Volume 2 : Until The End of The World Author: Garth Ennis Artist: Steve Dillon Pages: 258 Genre: Graphic Novel Rating: 5 stars My thoughts on this book: As I have said previously this is a series reread ...
