This past year, I reviewed 37 books I'd consider to be mostly Science Fiction and Fantasy, including one I read last year but didn't put up my review until this year, Quaking Soul by Jennifer M. Zeiger, which also turned out to be my favorite SFF read last year. We'll be here forever if I … Continue reading My Favorite Science Fiction & Fantasy Read of 2022
Most of what I read this year was SFF, so it's hard to narrow down! I like to think that, in previous years, I enjoyed a nice balance of fantasy, mystery, and women's fiction with some general fiction and science fiction thrown in, but I think this year (with the ongoing pandemic and now approaching … Continue reading My Favorite Science Fiction & Fantasy Read of 2021
Recently, I've realized a number of the incredibly wonderful book bloggers I follow are in high school or were in high school when they started blogging.

Once upon a time, I thought physical books were a bad idea around my little ones (I feared … Continue reading Things I Love and Hate About My Kindle

I love taking a look at a book cover and description and then coming up with my own idea of what the book will be about. Sometimes I'm right, sometimes I'm so wrong it's almost funny. So I've decided to launch myself off of WWW Wednesday, a bookish meme run by Sam@Taking on a World … Continue reading First, Middle, and Last Impressions – September 15, 2021
It's called a comfort zone for a reason. It's my happy place, the place I go to in order to retreat from the world and the chaos of my household. With children constantly flinging questions at me literally from the time they wake up at 6 something in the morning until bedtime at 8 at … Continue reading Why I Don’t Read Outside of My Comfort Zone
WWW Wednesday is a bookish meme run by Sam@Taking on a World of Words. It asks: What are you currently reading? What did you recently finish reading? What do you think you’ll read next? What are you currently reading? Fate Accompli by Keith R. Fentonmiller. I just started this last night and am finding it … Continue reading WWW Wednesday – April 28, 2021
