All of the book love from Monday’s review of The Starless Sea really took it out of me so I’m giving myself (and you) a word break for the rest of the week. Today is mini-reviews—three very different books with fewer words about each. In Adrienne Brodeur’s memoir, Wild Game fact once again proves to be infinitely stranger than fiction.

October Reading Recap
Hello! I know October has already ended but figured you’d all cut me some slack as I’ve been a bit busy. When I posted about taking a break because I was driving from Seattle to Ann Arbor I used a stock mountain photo, but I’m happy to report that I took this photo myself while driving through Montana.

I never had that baking feeling of heat, when all you can think about is chilly weather and big books. And while I love the weather in Seattle all year round I am desperate for a ... Read More...
August Reading Wrap-Up
What a month! I hope you all had a more vacation-y time in August than I did. The month wasn’t bad, it was just a time of adjustment—Jed moved to Ann Arbor for his job, I stayed here and began the process of wrapping up our Seattle life, prepping to move, and preparing our house to become a rental property for the next five years. I took the last two weeks off to try and find a ... Read More...
