I haven't done this in a while and I'm usually pretty terrible at it, but it's fun and I'm always curious how people describe their CR with emojis πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €

β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Okay, maybe those were awful emoji descriptions, but it sure was fun to try and get creative with them πŸ˜‚ And in case you were curious, my books are For the Throne (arc) and Bookish and the Beast πŸ™ˆ

β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Shot Clock by @justinwritesya and Caron Butler (ARC) is a middle-grade novel all about heart, hope, and of course lots of great basketball πŸ€ This has been the perfect book to read while I watch the NBA conference finals β›ΉπŸΎ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
We Were Dreamers: An Immigrant Superhero Origin Story by @simuliu has been absolutely phenomenal 😍 I've been a huge fan of Simu for quite some time and learning more about his family, his life, and how he became Shang-Chi has been really incredible πŸ’₯ Plus, he narrates the audiobook 🎧
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
It's really great to discover books that relate to my other interests because it just makes me feel so comforted and happy! 🀍 Now I need more books about superheroes and basketball πŸ˜‰

βš“οΈ All the Stars and Teeth by Adalyn Grace
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €

Do you DNF books? πŸ™…πŸ»β€β™€οΈ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
This has been such a controversial topic for so long and I've personally struggled with it A LOT πŸ™ˆ For years, I refused to quit reading a book unless the subject matter was too triggering or frightening for me to handle 🫣 I would even go so far as to read entire series that I literally didn't like, just to see if the books got any better and changed my mind 🧠
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
HOWEVER... this recently changed for me! πŸ™€ This month, I chose to put down four books that weren't serving me - and it was so insanely freeing! 🍾 I felt like a weight was lifted off me, not forcing myself to read things I wasn't into - and while I still might give some books the benefit of the doubt and finish them (some of my favorite books of all time started off with me feeling very so-so about them)... I will no longer be struggling my way through series I'm not enjoying or novels that make me feel uneasy πŸ™ŒπŸΌ 
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Have you ever almost DNF'd a book that you wound up loving? 🀎 Which was it? πŸ“–

I'm all about underrated books and try to recommend my faves on a regular basis because I think that they deserve just as much love as the hyped books 🀎 BUT I also enjoy reading my fair share of hyped books (even if they don't always live up to the hype) πŸ™ˆ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
The last few books I read that 100% lived up to the hype were:
🐐 Part of Your World by Abby Jimenez (this book made me feel so seen it was unreal. I wept several times)
πŸͺ· Defy the Night by Brigid Kemmerer (I was so thrilled with how much I enjoyed this fantasy)
πŸ’„ The No-Show by Beth O'Leary (this author is usually a winner for me and her latest release didn't disappoint)
πŸ› The Atlas Six by Olivie Blake (I was unsure for the first 3rd of the book but it wound up being a 5-star read by the end!)

The Best Soft and Chewy Molasses Cookies Recipe

Jump to Recipe

This post was originally published in September 2020. It has been updated and republished since then with the best notes on how to make soft and chewy molasses cookies.

You haven’t lived until you’ve tried these delicious, soft and chewy molasses cookies.

Around here, it isn’t autumn yet until there’s molasses cookies fresh out of the oven. Forget everything you thought you knew about gingersnaps or the like. These are like the most incredible combination of snickerdoodles and gingerbread – a little sweet; a little spicy. They are so easy to make, and I’m not exaggerating when I say that every time I’ve shared these with others, they immediately want to eat the entire batch in one sitting.

This recipe is a family favorite. My mom made them when I was a little girl, my sister makes them for her family, and I make them for myself and my husband (and anyone else who wants to come over for coffee and cookies). When you bake them, your whole house will smell like the holidays, and it’s bound to put you in the best mood!

I truly believe these molasses cookies are the absolute best autumn snack.

You could easily turn them into ice cream sandwiches, with a butter pecan ice cream in the center. You can dip them in spiced mocha, or you can just eat them by the handful while you’re working (as I tend to do).

      I’ve never really known any ginger cookies aside from gingersnaps (too hard for my taste) or gingerbread… and these are definitely neither haha! They’re something totally special and unique!

Shot Clock by @justinwritesya and Caron Butler (ARC) is a middle-grade novel all about heart, hope, and of course lots of great basketball πŸ€ This has been the perfect book to read while I watch the NBA conference finals β›ΉπŸΎ

We Were Dreamers: An Immigrant Superhero Origin Story by @simuliu has been absolutely phenomenal 😍 I've been a huge fan of Simu for quite some time and learning more about his family, his life, and how he became Shang-Chi has been really incredible πŸ’₯ Plus, he narrates the audiobook 🎧

Do you DNF books? πŸ™…πŸ»β€β™€οΈ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
This has been such a controversial topic for so long and I've personally struggled with it A LOT πŸ™ˆ For years, I refused to quit reading a book unless the subject matter was too triggering or frightening for me to handle 🫣 I would even go so far as to read entire series that I literally didn't like, just to see if the books got any better and changed my mind 🧠
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
HOWEVER... this recently changed for me! πŸ™€ This month, I chose to put down four books that weren't serving me - and it was so insanely freeing! 🍾 I felt like a weight was lifted off me, not forcing myself to read things I wasn't into - and while I still might give some books the benefit of the doubt and finish them (some of my favorite books of all time started off with me feeling very so-so about them)... I will no longer be struggling my way through series I'm not enjoying or novels that make me feel uneasy πŸ™ŒπŸΌ 
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €

What was the last hyped book you read that actuall What was the last hyped book you read that actually did live up to the hype? πŸ’₯
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I'm all about underrated books and try to recommend my faves on a regular basis because I think that they deserve just as much love as the hyped books 🀎 BUT I also enjoy reading my fair share of hyped books (even if they don't always live up to the hype) πŸ™ˆ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
The last few books I read that 100% lived up to the hype were:
🐐 Part of Your World by Abby Jimenez (this book made me feel so seen it was unreal. I wept several times)
πŸͺ· Defy the Night by Brigid Kemmerer (I was so thrilled with how much I enjoyed this fantasy)
πŸ’„ The No-Show by Beth O'Leary (this author is usually a winner for me and her latest release didn't disappoint)
πŸ› The Atlas Six by Olivie Blake (I was unsure for the first 3rd of the book but it wound up being a 5-star read by the end!)
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €

What was the last book you purchased for yourself What was the last book you purchased for yourself or got from the library? πŸ“–

As you all know very well, I'm not the type of person to purchase books unless I've read them first (my exception being sequels to books I own or authors who never let me down) πŸ™ˆ That being said, I'm pretty picky about which books I DO spend my money on πŸ’³
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I recently did a bit of a haul on #IndependentBookstoreDay to get my hands on some of my favorite books from the past year and I can't wait to have them in my hands soon! πŸ™ŒπŸΌ Below is the list of titles I ordered from my favorite indie shops:
πŸ› The Atlas Six
πŸ‘» Gallant
✨ The Kindred
πŸ“± The Boyfriend Project
πŸ’› Life's Too Short
🎈 All Fired Up (pre-order, since I loved the arc)

Have you read any of these or are any of them on your TBR? πŸ“š
