Hello, dear readers! Ariel’s traveling this week and I got my chapters mixed up, so we’re off this week and we’ll be back next week. Teasers: ACOMAF has a fight scene for once and Calendar Girl… yeah, I still don’t know what’s happening in Calendar Girl. In the meantime, I’d like to open up some community chit-chat! As long as […]

Apologies for the lack of gifs in my posts lately. The uploader has been super slow for me, AND I CAN’T WITH IT. Calendar Girl (September) Chapter 7: Mia goes to check on Ginelle after her kidnapping ordeal. She’s not doing great to say the least. She’s injured and traumatised, and Mia takes care of […]

Calendar Girl (September): Chapter 8 Mia brings us up to speed about Gin’s recovery from her kidnapping. Gin takes a week off work, which her boss is understanding about since Blaine’s mob is an open secret in Vegas. She was still a little off, but definitely coming back to the feisty girl I knew and […]

A Court of Mist and Fury Chapter 58: They give the second book to Amren and she disappears. Feyre tells us, “So we waited. And waited.” and then is like, “Two days passed. Amren still hadn’t cracked teh code.” I’m sorry, but that is not waiting and waiting. That is 48 motherfucking hours. Given the […]

A Court of Mist and Fury: Chapter 59 Given how this sequel has been nearly masturbatory about how much more powerful the characters in this book are than in the last book – a major focal point of which has been Feyre’s transformation from a human to an immortal faerie – it’s pretty frustrating that […]

Calendar Girl (September) Chapter 9: Mia reminds us how urgently she needs to figure out what she’s going to do about Blaine. She also still hasn’t received more information about Wes, and Warren won’t take her calls. Once Kathleen picked up and told me he was working on it and wouldn’t stop until he got […]

Both in Calendar Girl and in real life, September has come to an end. You know what that means. IT’S HALLOWEEN MONTH. And you know what that means, specifically in Bad Books, Good Times terms! IT’S GOOSEBUMPS MONTH, MOTHERFUCKERS! We’ll be doing our annual Goosebumps reading before we start the next Calendar Girl. You know the drill. Help us decide upon our […]

A Court of Mist and Fury Chapter 61: As they embark on their journey to Hybern – which mercifully is quick and takes only about a page of winnowing – Feyre reminds us three times in the span of a couple pages that Rhys is her mate. I’m just preparing you because this happens for […]
The post A Court of Mist and Fury Chapters 61 & 62: Suddenly We’re in Hybern appeared first on Bad Books, Good Times.
Yep, it’s not just Calendar Girl that’s getting all of the “oh hey, that villain we keep talking about but never show is here now, please pretend that they matter” love this month. A Court of Mist and Fury: Chapter 63 Oh shit! Yesterday’s chapter ended with a plot twist! Jurian snickered. “Worked your way up the ranks, […]

Happy October, the spooky time of spooky stories! Like Goosebumps. It’s time for me and Ariel to revisit these books that terrified us when we were little children in the 90s and reflect on how kids are dumb. This year the poll winner was The Blob That Ate Everyone, which in retrospect isn’t remotely surprising, because the goddamn […]
The post Goosebumps: The Blob That Ate Everyone Chapters 1-5: appeared first on Bad Books, Good Times.
The Blob that Ate Everyone Chapter 6: Another squishy footstep. Closer. A chill swept down my back. I nearly dropped the typewriter. This is not my first Goosebumps rodeo; it’s probably another cat. There ain’t no way we’re getting the real spooks at the start of chapter freaking six. It turns out it’s just a woman walking […]

A Court of Mist and Fury Chapter 64: Tamlin has just made his grand entrance, which leads a lot of glaring. He’d been working with the King of Hybern. “No,” I breathed. But Tamlin dared one more step closer, staring at me as if I were a ghost. Lucien, metal eye whirring, stopped him with […]

A Court of Mist and Fury: Chapter 65 The King of Hybern just revealed he has Feyre’s human sisters kidnapped as well. Gosh, this guy was really productive in the last day or so. Imagine if he applied himself throughout the rest of this book we’ve been reading since April. This was some new hell. […]

The Blob that Ate Everyone Chapter 11: When we last left off, Zackie was seemingly being attacked by another terrifying creature. It turns out it’s a mouse, which I find pretty terrifying given it fell on his head and then climbed down his shirt, but Zackie doesn’t seem too perturbed by this. Emmy and Annie […]

Zackie has finally started using the obviously haunted typewriter, and every sentence he’s written has come true! It’s suddenly a dark and stormy night… his parents disappeared leaving him and Alex alone in the house… So I guess we’re at the “nah, I’m sure there’s a normal explanation for this and there’s no reason to reevaluate how […]

A Court of Mist and Fury Chapter 66: Lucien has just realized Elaine is his mate. The other characters react with varying degrees of relatability. I didn’t let Lucien’s declaration sink in. Same, Feyre, same. It’s just too stupid to consider fully right now. Let’s put it off until it’s Matthew’s turn to write about this later. Nesta, […]
The post A Court of Mist and Fury Chapter 66: Can Someone Explain to Me What’s Happening in This Book? appeared first on Bad Books, Good Times.
I swear this book is actually almost over. Like “next week, we finish” almost over. A Court of Mist and Fury: Chapter 67 The chapter kicks off with Feyre fainting, and then in sentence two she un-faints “mere seconds” later. Good share, ACOMAF. This was an important detail that mattered. So where are we at […]

The Blob That Ate Everyone Chapter 22: When we last left off, Adam wrote that the Blob Monster was hiding in Zackie’s basement. They hear loud thuds as someone or something comes up the stairs and to Zackie’s room. A beam of white light made me shut my eyes. My hands shot up to shield myself. Behind […]

Happy Halloween everyone! I’m not sure we ever actually managed to time our Goosebumps reading so that it ends on Halloween itself. Heckin’ spooky AF, you guys. Previously, Zackie became un-convinced that the obviously haunted typewriter is haunted, and after one prank too many just sat down and wrote a new story about the blob monster terrorizing […]

A Court of Mist and Fury Chapter 68: Alert! Alert! We are now entering Rhysand’s point of view. He winnows everyone back to his home while Mor takes Feyre’s sisters somewhere safe. I struggle to understand where could be safer than with the world’s strongest Fae, and it seems like a terrible plan to just […]
