It’s one of our favourite times of the year, The Perpetual Page Turner’s End of the Year Bookish Survey! Number Of Books You Read: Shelly: 179 woo woo! Octavia: 43 Books Read! At first I was really sad but after looking at my year I’m really proud of this number! Number of Re-Reads: Shelly: I […]
Octavia This year I was so excited to spend the week with Shelly (and my whole amazing BEA squad!) that I completely blew it on pics and things! Not that I didn’t take pics! I just didn’t take enough. I was so lucky to have planned this trip with 11 amazing kick ass chickas and […]
Hi everyone! As you can tell from the title, we will be in Chicago this year for Book Expo America! What this means for the blog: Perhaps a lack of posts once we get back, we need time to recover from the awesome! Recaps! All the recaps and details about our trip. A new photo for our […]
Happy May! I can’t believe the month is gone! April was terrible because finals and marks and gahhh it was the worst but May is going to be better! I’m off school (except for summer school classes opps) and I will be going to BEA! And I will see Octavia! And so many other lovely people. […]
This post isn’t necessarily all about ARC April but I figure it’d be a nice time to share some reading tips for those who are participating to get through all those ARCs! 1. Read a short story or a comic in between to avoid slumping! I fall into reading slumps because I let books linger (which […]

I cried while watching Star Wars The Force Awakens today, and not because of the unbelievably EPIC movie. Ayanna, my seven-year old, is a HUGE Star Wars fan. She’s seen all the movies, was Darth Vader for Halloween, runs around the house making Chewy noises and thinks BB-8 is literally “the cutest and coolest”droid ever. […]
I’ve started listening to podcasts on my daily commute and I love them! I find that they’re easier for me to listen to because they’re shorter and I don’t feel as impatient as I do compared to audiobooks. Anyway, here are some of the ones that I really enjoy and recommend! *I listen through iTunes […]
Happy November lovelies! It’s been a LONG time since I’ve posted anything but that’s not to say RSR has been quiet! In fact, I wanted to take a sec to send a HUGE thank you and congratulations to Shelly and every single person who helped promote or contributed a guest post during Shelly’s Diversity Month. […]
