I don’t even watch movies…which makes it all the more surprising that these recent book-to-screen adaptations completely won me over. If you’re wondering which ones are actually worth watching, I’ve got a few recommendations.

Hello and Welcome (Back)!
Hi, I’m Delaney—a long-time reader, first-time author, and enthusiastic recommender of books that will probably take over your life. Welcome (back) to Sequels & Scribbles, where we’ll be talking books, writing, and everything in between.
My Favorite Audiobooks
On a more positive note from my last post (sometimes, we just need to let the rage out, you know?), I wanted to chat about my favorite audiobooks today! Audiobooks have really been having their moment recently, mostly because they enable us to consume content (a story) and entertain ourselves while doing something like runningContinue reading “My Favorite Audiobooks”
My Least Favorite Literary Characters
In some books, there are characters that make me so utterly infuriated that I want to scream every time their name appears on the page. Half of the time, they’re not even villainous characters, just ones who repulse me on a fundamental level because of their personalities. Much like our lord and savior, Mr. FitzwilliamContinue reading “My Least Favorite Literary Characters”
Ranking Books in a Series: ACOTAR
It only feels right that the first series I’m ranking is A Court of Thorns and Roses. This is a series that shot reading back into popularity during the pandemic, and I feel like it has a resurgence about once a year when more people suddenly discover it. I read these books as it cameContinue reading “Ranking Books in a Series: ACOTAR”
My Favorite Books: Romance Edition
This round-up of my favorite romance books seemed appropriate for February, especially as Valentine’s Day approaches. I’m not a huge romance reader; I typically gravitate towards fantasy more than anything, but when I’m in the mood to read romance, I want something that makes me believe in love all over again. When I was compilingContinue reading “My Favorite Books: Romance Edition”
Books I Think Deserve More Hype
It’s been interesting (and extremely gratifying) as a life-long reader to see reading come back around as the thing to do in your free time. I feel like it was so easy to get burnt out from high school and college required reading that a lot of people lost the magic of reading just forContinue reading “Books I Think Deserve More Hype”
It’s Winter! What Should You Read?
It snowed this week in Texas (just a light dusting, but again, this is Texas), so it’s officially winter! Whether you live in a place where snow and ice are the norm or in an area where you’re lucky if the temperature dips below 60º in January, there’s nothing quite like getting cozy with aContinue reading “It’s Winter! What Should You Read?”
My Favorite Books: Fantasy Edition
If a fantasy book or series is published, I will read it. I was the kid who was obsessed with fairies and anything magical, and ever since then, I’ve inhaled fantasy books at an alarming rate. For obvious reasons, I tend to lean toward writing fantasy novels as well. Hey, you can take the girlContinue reading “My Favorite Books: Fantasy Edition”
New Releases I’m Looking Forward to in 2025!
2025 is going to be a wild year for books. So many anticipated releases have dropped already in January alone, and we’re only eighteen days into the year. My calendar is packed full of release dates for the next six-to-eight months, primarily from authors that I know and love. The list I’ve compiled below isContinue reading “New Releases I’m Looking Forward to in 2025!”
