I fired up my book bingo generator and here is the card I got. I have a year to work on it, and I think this one will be a bit easier than last year. When I originally rolled this card, I ended up getting a few challenges from my last card. I spun the …

My 2020 in Books
Time to look at what I read in 2020, and make some plans for 2021. Let's start with my book bingo challenge. I got three bingos and filled all but five tiles. I enjoyed this challenge a lot, and it led me to seek out a range of books I might not have picked up …
2020 Book Bingo: Bingo #3 Review
Wow, all but one of the books in this row (Briar Rose) I have already talked about in some way befort. So, yay, quick post full of copy and pasting. I have extended the other reviews a bit, added a few thoughts on the books now that it's been a while since I read them, …
2020 Book Bingo: Bingo #2 Reviews
I got my second bingo on my card. It helped that two of these books were nominated for Hugos this year, so I had an added incentive to finish this line off quick. The Novelette square overlaps with my previous bingo, so it has already been reviewed. I copypasta'd the review from my last update, …
2020 Book Bingo: Bingo #1 Reviews
Technically this is my second update on my book bingo, but this is the first time I got a bingo on my card. I think this line got done first just because I never ended up reading any novels on it. I filled this line with two graphic novels, two novelettes, a novella and a …
Book Bingo Progress 1
I've completed two challenges on my Book Bingo card, and thought that makes a good excuse for some reviews. What was interesting about both these books is that they've been on my To Read list for a while, but I didn't anticipate that they'd tick off challenges until I started. Get ready for reviews of …
Book Bingo Card 2020
Time to share the Book Bingo card I'll be trying to complete this year. As with my last card, this one was randomly generated from a list of over 200 different challenges. Here's what I got. Despite all that variety, I managed to get two tiles related to the Locus Awards. (Even better, I'd managed …
My 2019 Book Bingo Challenge. Or, What Happened to You?
I haven’t really been posting much. A few technical issues with my blog started the slowdown, but they weren’t the main issue. Whilst I like writing the reviews, it makes reading feel like a job. Not only that, but writing reviews cut into the time I had to write stories. Being consistent with my writing …

Hello 2019
So it’s now 2019. The year of Akira, Bladerunner, The Running Man, The Island, and probably a few other stories. From now on I’m going to have a little helper with all my posts. Meet Knight. He likes sleeping on the keyboard and chasing stuff on the screen. From now on, I’m blaming him for …
Lauren’s Super Speculative Fiction Book Bingo Card
This year I have made my own book bingo card, with some challenges I want to complete. I’m going to put more effort into finishing these challenges than I did for last year’s one; not that there was anything wrong with the challenges last time, I’m just more motivated to set reading goals this year. …
