Meet the Mischief Maker
Bibliophiles Behaving Badly was born out of equal parts insomnia, caffeine, and righteous literary chaos. I read because I have to—because I crave the kind of stories that seduce you into “just one more chapter” until it’s 3 a.m. and your alarm clock is already judging you. Give me world-building that feels like witchcraft, heroes and heroines who ruin my emotional equilibrium, and plots that hit harder than a double espresso on an empty stomach.
The Pacific Northwest provides the perfect storm—literally—for my kind of reading: endless rain, strong coffee, and zero guilt about ignoring real life for fictional worlds. I alternate between my Kindle and the sacred smell of a real book, wrapped in a blanket and muttering feminist commentary at characters who should know better. It’s domestic bliss, literary chaos, and a touch of witch energy all rolled into one.
I’m an unrepentantly snarky reader with zero patience for politeness in reviews. If a book deserves a slow clap, I’ll give it one; if it deserves a side-eye, I’ve got range. Sometimes I finish a book out of sheer spite, sometimes I DNF it with glee—and I refuse to feel bad about either.
Bibliophiles Behaving Badly is my love letter to the unhinged joy of reading—the sleepless nights, the questionable crushes, the over-caffeinated rants. Around here, we celebrate books that make you blush, cry, or throw them across the room (lovingly, of course). If that sounds like your kind of bad behavior, welcome home.

Review Policy
I read almost exclusively fiction—think sci-fi, fantasy, urban fantasy, romance, mystery, dystopian, and every unholy cross of those genres you can imagine.
I’m happy to read ebooks or hardcopies, though I generally skip self-published books unless they come highly recommended or are making enough noise that I can’t resist seeing what the fuss is about.
Yes, I accept review requests, but please note: I don’t guarantee I’ll get to every one. My TBR is already plotting world domination. If you have something you think might fit BBB, feel free to reach out with a boilerplate description of the book—no need for a heartfelt letter or personalized pitch. Your time is better spent writing your next masterpiece. If I’m interested, I’ll follow up.
I do not review for money. Bribes in the form of coffee, wine, or eternal gratitude are appreciated but have zero sway over my opinions. Every review is 100% honest—sometimes brutally so, but I always try to be respectful. Receiving a book does not guarantee a review, and I reserve the right to DNF (Did Not Finish) if it’s not clicking.
When I review, I use a grade-style rating system because stars are for Hollywood. I break down the experience by plot, tension, world-building, main characters, and overall impact, giving each the credit—or side-eye—it deserves.
Partnerships & Affiliates
Some links are affiliate links, which means I earn a small commission (think Amazon Associates, Barnes & Noble – the usual suspects) if you click and buy. It keeps me caffeinated and the lights on. My opinions, however, are never for sale.
Privacy & Data
I don’t sell your info — not even for a rare first-edition hardcover. Any data collected (like cookies or email addresses) exists solely to make the site function and occasionally deliver delightful chaos to your inbox.
Comment & Community Policy
Snark is welcome. Cruelty is not. Debate like adults with caffeine — spirited but civilized. Violators will be gently yeeted into the void.
ARC & Gifted Book Disclosure
If a publisher, author, or PR team sends me a book, I’ll always disclose it. Free books buy my time, not my opinion.
