It's time for the first wrap-up of 2020! January has been a mixed bag as far as reading, especially when it comes to fiction. I read more nonfiction books about gardening and crafting this time around. It's definitely been a productive reading month, if nothing else! Books Completed in January 2020: 10 📚 📚 Sincerely,...

Hello, Readers! I am so excited for this post, because today is my blog's birthday!! It's hard to believe that it has been two years since I moved from my first book blog to Reviews From the Stacks, but at the same time, this platform has become so comfortable that it feels like I have...

Happy Monday! I'm participating in Mailbox Monday again this week, and once again all of my new books come from the library. Oklahoma seems to think that Winter and Spring are basically the same season this year, which has me thinking a lot about one of my favorite late-spring events: starting the year's garden. I...

Happy Friday! Today's review is another fairly impressive middle-grade book that I read toward the end of 2019. Song for a Whale features a deaf protagonist, a boatload of science, and, of course, a whale. About the Book Title: Song for a Whale Author: Lynne Kelly Genre: Middle Grade Contemporary Fiction Publication Date: February 5, 2019 Synopsis:... Continue Reading →
Many writers (and readers, for that matter) can be divided into one of two camps: coffee people, or tea people. While I do not universally dislike tea, I definitely align myself with the first group. Luckily, there are several places close by to satiate my coffee cravings, despite the fact that I don't live in a... Continue Reading →
Happy Monday! I'm switching things up a little this week and starting with a review that I am very excited to write! I first heard about today's book a few months ago, when it was announced that it would be available in a limited-time Christmas anthology. I really wanted to read this anthology, but I...

Like many readers, from time to time I acquire more books than I can feasibly read in a reasonable amount of time. I have a difficult time saying no to cheap or free books, even if they are not something that I am necessarily interested in at the moment. These are mostly books that I... Continue Reading →
Welcome, wonderful blog-wanderers, to another WWW Wednesday! This is the first WWW Wednesday I am participating in for 2020, and it's a doozy. I am very optimistic about the books in this post, as well as highly recommending the ones from my "Recently Finished Reading" section. WWW Wednesday is a weekly meme currently hosted by Sam...

Another week, another blog post! Today I'm joining the Mailbox Monday linkup to share the new books I got. Only in my case, none of them came in the mail, they all came through the library, so I am also linking up with The Captive Reader for Library Loot (I'll add the link on Wednesday)....

Is it too late to still be doing New Year's posts? As long as it's still January, I think it's fine. In 2018 I started a shelf on my Goodreads account called "2019 TBR possibilities." Basically, it's a shelf for books that either could count towards my reading goals for the year or that I... Continue Reading →
