How did we get to the end of April already? The next online book study group for The Everyday Naturalist is on Monday, May 4, at 6pm PST! We'll be covering chapter 4, which breaks down my personal process for identifying animals, plants, and fungi, as well as other practical considerations for when you're out in the field and trying to figure out what that species is!

You can register on Eventbrite here, and I'll send out the Zoom link to all registrants a day or two before the event.

Ghostly Touches by Salem Cross

~5/5⭐

*Sighhhhh* This was SUCH a fun read y'all! It's been awhile since I've enjoyed a RH novel this much, and what a refreshing story at that! With a badass heroine and a few grumpy, groveling, and monster like men, this book was everything I needed and more😩 I went into this book with zero knowledge or any idea of what to expect, and honestly that made it soooo much more enjoyable. I also feel like this is one of those books that makes more sense if you just read it your self? I know that sounds a little questionable, but trust me on this one! With that being said.....I'm gonna spare you all the long review, in hopes that you'll just trust me on this one and read this book.

As Always,

Happy Reading❤️

Very odd how common it is for people to say if you don’t like a book, don’t review it because some people might get upset. Like, idk y’all...maybe it’s a little 😬😬😬 when bookish communities demand others to stay silent to spare somebody’s feelings.

We’ve been hard at work figuring out how to make our Read Harder Book Groups more accessible and flexible, both for existing groups and new ones. While our current groups are pretty great (*cough HI NYC cough cough*), the demand for new groups far outstrips our ability to provide a contributor to host them, as some of you know first-hand. After a lot of thought and brainstorming we’ve decided that rather than have an official track and an unofficial one, as in the current system, we’re turning over hosting and group logistics to YOU.

Just imagine me as Adam Levine. I would totally turn my chair for you!

That’s right! As of February 2017, book groups will no longer be managed and maintained by Book Riot contributors and staff; instead, we want it to be as easy as possible for you to have one in your area. We’re overhauling the current page to become a general resource for those who run (or want to start!) a group, with tips specifically for any-book and Read Harder Challenge-focused ones. You’ll also be able to submit your group (named whatever the heck you want!) to be listed, if it’s open to the public. And we’re launching a book-group focused newsletter that will include recommendations for group reading (including Challenge-focused picks) and publisher sponsorships for occasional goodies.

The Weekly Wrap: January 26-February 1

Photo by cottonbro studio on Pexels.com Book Groups Many of us who enjoy reading love to discuss what we are reading with others. I’ve been a part of one book group or another for nearly thirty years. And I have to say that the books I’ve discussed in groups have been the ones that have stayed with me. I’m thinking of this because the book group of which I’m a part just finished our latest…
