The Reward Challenge Update #774, July 19th

noreply@blogger.com (Louisa @ Words I Write Crazy) — Sun, 19 Jul 2026 12:00:00 +0000

The Reward Challenge is almost the complete opposite to a book buying ban as you'll end up buying lots of new books throughout the challenge but only after you've completed a certain amount of reading. It was hosted by Good Golly Miss Holly, so thanks to her for starting it!

OK, so I read

Wheel of TBR #321, July 19th

noreply@blogger.com (Louisa @ Words I Write Crazy) — Sun, 19 Jul 2026 12:00:00 +0000

I saw Codie's Book Corner doing the Wheel of TBR, and I thought that sounded like a great way to pick what to read from your TBR. So thanks to her! I'll only do 3 spins, because I'm doing this every week, and so it won't make up my total TBR of the week, but it'll be a start!

Rules:

1. For each week of the month, I'll do 3 spins each week to read each week though I do have the rest of the month to read them. Once a prompt is used, I'll randomly choose one from the list, keeping track of how often a colour comes up. If colour comes up 3 or more times in month, I'll do another spin once it comes up 3 times.

2. If I don't read a book that week or at least start it before the end of the month, then for my next week of spins, I have to add a punishment for each book unread. I'll roll for each unread book, and have to apply each and every punishment chosen to the week.

3. Each month I'll get a prompt from my Binge Read Wheel (either specifically picking the prompt, or spinning the wheel) and I have to read at least 9 books, though I can read more!

Of the books from the last week, I read

Binge Read Wheel:

For this month, the wheel picked/I chose . I read , so I've read /9+.

This week I read the past wheel picks of , so I have past spins left,

Prompts Used This Week:

Colour Totals:
Red:
Orange:

Chartreuse:

The Kraken Bride: Cover Reveal

noreply@blogger.com (Louisa @ Words I Write Crazy) — Fri, 10 Jul 2026 15:00:00 +0000

Today we're getting the cover of The Kraken Bride by Gena Showalter and Jill Monroe!

From Goodreads:

Princess Bronwyn Drachenveil, famed ballerina of the dragon court, signs away three years of her life to descend into treacherous kraken territory, on a mission that could forever change her fate.

Sebastian Morrissey rules Krakenströnd with ruthless precision. Desired by many, feared by all. When an ancient primordial rises from the abyss, threatening the safety of his underwater kingdom, he needs someone clever, nimble—and convincing—at his side. His solution? A fake courtship with the Swan of Ashmorra. The dragon princess now bound to his land.

If Bronwyn plays the kraken king’s consort, acting as his spy, Sebastian will grant her heart’s desire. But the longer the deception continues, the more dangerous the game becomes. Because the kraken king who never believed in love…

May be falling for the woman destined to set his world on fire.

Authors: Gena Showalter and Jill Monroe
Series: Kings of Fury #4

Publisher: Author Talk Media LLC
Expected Publication: August 31st 2026

Gena Showalter's Bio:

Gena Showalter is the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of over one hundred wildly addictive novels. Though she’s known for weaving heart-racing romance into paranormal, fantasy, contemporary, and young adult tales, she’s also ventured into the world of co-authoring quirky cozy mysteries, as well as a guide for writing a novel in a year, and voice acting a podcast as a fictional character come to life.

When she’s not plotting epic love stories or slaying deadlines, she wears the titles of mom, grandma, and fur-mom of a menagerie of rescue animals. There’s a high possibility she’s currently working on her next swoon-worthy book and already has a serious crush on the hero.

Jill Monroe's Bio:

Jill Monroe is the international best selling author of over fifteen novels and novellas. She writes both sweet and spicy romance, tipped her toes in the paranormal waters, added cozy mysteries with her best friend Gena Showalter and co-authored a series of books geared for new writers called All Write Already.

Her books are available across the globe and The Wrong Bed: Naked Pursuit has been adapted for the small screen for Lifetime Movie Network. When not writing, Jill makes her home in Oklahoma with her husband, enjoys daily walks with her dog Zoey, texting with her two daughters who are away at college and collecting fabric for items she’ll sew poorly.

Third Sentence Thursday is a weekly meme which likes to watch fireworks especially while eating a cookie!

1) Take the book you are currently reading and open it to a random page. Share the third full sentence on that page. (If there isn't a third one – like at the end of a chapter or a blank page – you can share the third sentence of the book or just choose another random page.) Feel free to share more than one sentence, if you feel the need to do so.

2) Review this sentence anyway you want (funny and silly reviews encouraged)

3) Post a link to your sentence at Words I Write Crazy (This Blog)

4) Visit one or two of the other blogs to check out their third sentences!
