JULY WRAP UP: What I Read This Month
Hello everyone. Welcome back to Bibliophilia Book Reviews. In this post, I will be doing a wrap up of all the books I read in July. This month I read 8 books and DNF’d 1. This month I started to read books that I usually don’t read very much in the first place giving my reading tastes a little bit more diversity. One of these types of books is reading a book in Spanish. The books I choose for this prompt are originally published in this language (no translations here, but there’s an idea for a new prompt), but the…
JUNE WRAP UP: What I Read This Month
Hello everyone. Welcome back to Bibliophilia Book Reviews. In this post, I will be doing a wrap up of all the books I read in June. As a friendly reminder, every month I try to read at least one book that fits into one of the following prompts: Library Book, Nonfiction, Book of the Month (BOTM), Classic, A Requested Review, a book that Starts a Series and one that Finishes a Series. And in April, I added New Release. I am realistic and know that I will not complete all of these prompts every month. But I do try. And…
MAY WRAP UP: What I Read This Month
Hello everyone. Welcome back to Bibliophilia Book Reviews. In this post, I will be doing a wrap up of all the books I read in May. This month was a rather slow reading month for me, and unfortunately I didn’t get to read as many books as I was hoping. It is going to be, then, a rather short wrap up this time around. But I did complete a series and read a couple of books that I really liked. Let’s begin: 1. Ravencaller by David Dalglish This book is the second installment of The Keepers trilogy by this author,…
BOOK REVIEW: The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood
Hello everyone. Welcome back to Bibliophilia Book Reviews. Today I’m reviewing The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood. Now, I know that I haven’t been posting a lot of reviews lately, but I am slowly trying to get back into it. Life simply tends to get in the way sometimes. SPOILER ALERT: This review has spoilers, so please read at your own discretion. Or if you have not read or finished the book yet, please don’t read at all. Trigger warning for death of a parent and sexual harrassment. Okay. So… I don’t know why, but contemporary romance isn’t doing it…
APRIL WRAP UP: What I Read This Month
Hello everyone. Welcome back to Bibliophilia Book Reviews. In this post, I will be doing a wrap up of all the books I read in April. This month I completed more prompts for my reading challenge than last month, however I still didn’t finish it. No matter. The point with this reading challenge is to read books that I wouldn’t have read otherwise, not to finish all eight prompts before the end of the month, and I’m accomplishing that. I read some really good books this month, and I am looking forward to talking about each one. I read 10…
BOOK REVIEW: Where Have You Been Bobby Marr?
Hi everyone. Welcome back to Bibliophilia Book Reviews. Today I’m reviewing Where Have You Been, Bobby Marr? by Morris Dalla Costa. For this review, I received an ARC by the author in exchange for an honest review. This book was published on August 30, 2021. I will begin this review with a confession. If I hadn’t been asked to review this book, I probably wouldn’t have read it. And, truth be told, I would have been at the losing end of that bargain. Looks are deceiving and this book is a perfect example of that. I admit that I have…
MARCH WRAP UP: What I Read This Month
Hello everyone. Welcome back to Bibliophilia Book Reviews. In this post, I will be doing a wrap up of all the books I read in March. This month I read 6 books and I DNF’d 1. In a way, I feel like I did rather poorly this month (I obviously did not complete my reading challenge) but I also think that I did pretty well if that is even possible. And this is because I completed The Faithful And The Fallen series by John Gwynne and these books are monumental. I feel pretty accomplished by that. The prompts that I…
FEBRUARY WRAP UP: What I Read This Month
Hello everyone. Welcome back to Bibliophilia Book Reviews. In this post, I will be doing a wrap up of all the books I read in February. This month I read 8 books. It was definitely a slower reading month for me, and I did not complete my reading challenge this time. Some books were also longer than the ones I read last month, while others were not all that to my liking. In fact, I am going to start with a book I didn’t like and which I DNF’d at 60%. These reviews have spoilers. 1. BOTM: Half Sick of…
BOOK REVIEW: The Rules of Magic by Alice Hoffmann
Hello everyone. Welcome to Bibliophilia Book Reviews. Today I’m reviewing The Rules of Magic by Alice Hoffman. Visit the author’s website here. The Rules of Magic is one of two prequels to this author’s very famous novel Practical Magic first published in 1995. This review has spoilers. The Rules of Magic are: Do as you will, but harm no one. What you give will be returned to you threefold. Fall in love whenever you can. But Franny, Jet, and Vincent have to follow another set of rules: No walking in the moonlight, no Ouija boards, no candles, no red shoes,…
BOOK REVIEW: Pulse by Judy G. Walters
Hi everyone. Welcome back to Bibliophilia Book Reviews. Today I’m reviewing Pulse, the first book in the Vital Signs Series by Judy G. Walters. To get a copy of this book, visit the publisher’s website here. For this review, I was contacted by the publisher and kindly received an ARC by the author in exchange for an honest review. Pulse by Judy G. Walters is a fast-paced, gut-wrenching, and prone-to-tears (in some places), medical drama fiction book set in the emergency room of a hospital in Texas. Trigger warning for death of a child and drowning. The main character, Dr….
