My 5 star predictions for 2020

February 10, 2020February 10, 2020 Kate (Reading Through Infinity)15 Comments

At the beginning of each year, I enjoy trying to predict the books that I think will be my 5 star reads for the year.

But although I only read one (yikes) of the books I’d set out in my TBR, I’m… Continue reading March 2019 Wrap Up // I basically ignored my TBR and I’m not sorry

Literary Discussions // Why I like having an unwieldy TBR

September 28, 2018 Kate (Reading Through Infinity)14 Comments

*Pointedly ignores the fact that we’re halfway through May* So I’m hoping to finally get to some books that have been on my TBR for the past two months. (Or in the case of Children of Blood and Bone, actually finish it.) Almost all of these are YA, so it’s going to be a pretty young… Continue reading May 2018 TBR
