Tag: On My Radar

I was doing some blog hopping a couple days ago and wow, I don’t know how some of you manage to read and post so many reviews and also work! Kudos to you all! I just cannot juggle all of that as efficiently as I’d like to. Anyway, I admittedly didn’t do as much blog hopping in October, mainly because I spent the last 1.5 weeks of it really hunkering down into Kingdom of Ash. Regardless, I rounded up a few posts for my October 2026 On My Radar. So take a look and see what you might’ve missed!

• The 2026 Mid Year Freak Out Book Tag by Tammy at Books, Bones & Buffy

For the June 2026 On My Radar there were a couple of books for which I read multiple reviews. This doesn’t happen often, but I guess there were a few books that a good number of folks were interested in at the same time! Anyway, take a look at some of the posts I hopped over to this month. Maybe you’ll find something to add to your TBR!

Good morning everyone! I didn’t read as often or feel super motivated to do blog things, but my May 2026 On My Radar is slightly shorter than usual. I’m sure I missed some good posts, but I still read some good ones, too! Here’s a round up of some of the bookish posts I read on the blogosophere. Happy blog hopping!
