On My Radar February Book Blog Posts

Published on February 27, 2023February 26, 2023 by Celeste10 Comments

With the conclusion of February, here’s a list of On My Radar blog posts I found around the blogosphere this month. Admittedly, I didn’t do as much blog hopping as last month. It was a chaotic reading month for me, so I spent most of my attention on that. But I still bopped around and read others’ posts when I could. Here are a few of the many posts I read and enjoyed.

I dedicate this post to help me keep track of the 2023 reading challenges I joined. Below is the official list of what is ongoing and what I plan to join as the year progresses. My aim is to stick to fairly broad reading challenges that facilitate my long-term goal of reading more from my backlist. Please feel free to take a peek and see if any of these interest you and, if so, obviously join in. The more, the merrier!

February 2023 TBR List

Published on February 1, 2023February 1, 2023 by Celeste13 Comments

I can’t remember if I made a December 2022 TBR list. I definitely didn’t for January 2023 and I had a good reading time last month. But I do want to make progress on my physical backlist, so I thought making a February 2023 TBR list would help keep me on track. February has a lot of ARC commitments for me, but I read most of them in January to keep my stress levels low. But I have a couple of March ARCs, too, so I’ll throw any early ones into the mix.

On My Radar January Book Blog Posts

Published on January 31, 2023January 31, 2023 by Celeste14 Comments

Though I blog hop when I can, I’ve never assembled an “on my radar” list of sorts before. So I thought it would be nice to highlight a few posts I enjoyed over the past month or so. They’re in no particular order. Obviously I blog hopped more than this list shows, so this is a subset of the excellent content I perused. My goal is to create this type of list roughly once a month. Hopefully I can stick with it. Without further ado, here are some great posts that you should check out!

Anticipated First Quarter Reads

Published on January 12, 2023March 17, 2024 by Celeste8 Comments

It seems like anticipated reads lists are fairly ubiquitous across the book blogging sphere. Or, at least, I personally see them often at the beginning of each month. However, I loathe formatting book list posts. It seems simple, but if you blog, you’ll understand all that goes into it. That said, I thought I’d try participating in this type of post. Because of my aforementioned dislike of formatting, I’m focusing on anticipated 2023 first quarter reads.

This means I’ll list books that will be published between January and March. All of the books below intrigue me, but I’m on a mission to read from my physical backlog. So, frankly, I’ll probably only have time to read the ones for which I have ARCs. But it’s still fun to look! And I’m sure I forgot some that I was eyeing. Anyway, onward with my anticipated 2023 first quarter reads…
