December 2025 Hopefuls
coffeestarsbooks November 24, 2025 6:03 pm Hello friends and fellow bookworms. Here we are again, nearing the end of the year, and I’ve found myself quite far behind my yearly reading goal. So this month we’re hoping to do a lot of reading, though there’s a few very long books on this list, so it definitely feels like a challenge. Perhaps this will wind up being too ambitious, but I want to try. Empire of Dawn I feel like I need to get to this one soon, even though it, like all the books in this series, is quite long. I’m not sure if I’m ready for the end of…

June 2025 Hopefuls
coffeestarsbooks June 2, 2025 8:57 pm Now that we’re a few days into June, I wanted to share what I’m hoping to read this month! It’s always hard sticking to these kinds of lists as a certified mood reader, but I have gotten a bit better over recent years with reading books almost as soon as I’ve bought them, so I’m hoping any planned purchases will just wind up in this list too. This month I’ve tried not to be too ambitious- I’ve got a lot going on in my personal life, from my parents visiting for a weekend to my ADHD assessment finally taking place after many long months…

June 2021: My Boyfriend Picks My TBR
Hi everyone, It’s now a week into June, which means it is time to start talking about my June TBR! I’m a bit of a mood reader to be honest, so having a TBR is always a bit of a daunting task, so this month I decided to make a bit of a game of it, and made my boyfriend pick a bunch of books to add to my TBR. He’s not a YA reader, so he doesn’t really know much about the books on my shelves, and so he picked a lot of the books based purely off how they looked. I’m thinking this might be a good tactic…

July TBR: 2020
Since we’re now a few days into July, I thought I’d share my To Be Read list for this month. My apartment is slowly getting taken over by books. There’s no room on the shelves, and there are several teetering piles of novels in the bedroom, so I’ve had to put myself on a physical book buying ban until we (hopefully) move in September to (hopefully) somewhere with more space for shelves. I’m still getting monthly boxes from Illumicrate and Fairyloot, and I’ve still treated myself to the special edition Shades of Magic box, but I think, unless there are any other incredibly amazing special edition boxes coming out between…

February TBR
Hi everyone, Since we’re now a few days into February, I thought I would share my TBR list with you all. It’s a little bit ambitious, especially as I am also reading lots of YA for my PhD research this month [hello Grisha trilogy] but I’m still hoping to get through most of it 😀 Anyhow, here is the list of books I’m hoping to read this month: King of Scars by Leigh Bardugo. I’ve already started this one, but I was a bit delayed in picking it up after its release since I had deadlines. I’m really enjoying it, but for some reason I’m struggling to read big chunks of it…

July TBR
Hi everyone, Since we’re now a few days into July, I thought I’d share my To Be Read list for this month. I was hoping to keep it short and sweet this month, since there’s still a lot going on, but I’ve already started hauling this month [it turns out I will be much more financially stable come October than I anticipated, so I should be hauling more books more regularly now]. So obviously the TBR pile is growing like crazy 😀 Anyhow, here is the list of books I’m hoping to read this month: All These Beautiful Strangers by Elizabeth Klehfoth. I thought I’d clear the YALC books out the…

May TBR
Hi everyone, I know it’s already ten days into the new month, but I thought I’d share my very very ambitious May TBR with you all. As ever, I’m going to try and read these books in the order they’re listed, but it really depends on what new books I get this month, and my moods and stuff too. There’s lots of May releases this month and I’ve got quite a few ARCs on this list of books coming out really soon, so they’re my priority at the moment. So yeah, here’s the list of what reviews to expect this month 😀 A Court of Frost and Starlight by Sarah J…

FEBRUARY TO BE READ
Hey guys, so today I launched back in to making booktube videos for books I wanted to discuss with a quick list of February To Be Read. Unfortunately, I can’t upload the video directly onto this page, but if you want to check it out here is a link Alternatively, you can find it [along with future videos I post] on the bookish lifestyle page under ‘videos.’ Have a great day, people. P.S. Sorry about the quality. I’m not entirely sure about editing yet, and I’m kinda using the whatever-technology-I-have-already approach. Also, I’m currently in my room at uni, so I don’t have my pretty bookshelves in the background [sobs].…
