Month 2 of 2016 wraps up tomorrow and what a month it’s been. You would think that with this extra day I’d be overflowing with creativity and verve, but instead I’m in some kind of mucky mindset—lots of blah. Thankfully, the same can’t be said for my February library reading! It was a great month for discovering books I might not normally have ... Read More...
January Library Checkout
January was one funky month for reading. Generally, if I read it, you’ll get a review of it, but there were such highs and lows that I couldn’t even do that. Namely, I’d read something not so good, not be able to finish it, and retreat to a strong recommendation from friends and fellow bloggers—usually older books.

In the same spirit of remodeling and updating you may have ... Read More...

Actually, I’m as surprised as you might be, but when I started looking back at my favorites and saw how many of them were debut authors I decided they needed a post of their own. I hadn't thought about it, but I read a lot of debut authors. A lot of GREAT debut ... Read More...
Favorite Books of 2015
This year has been a reading rollercoaster—exciting highs mixed with ho-hum lows. No sooner was I soaring from some fantastic piece of fiction than I was shutting a book after 100 pages because ‘life is too short’ to keep reading something that isn’t holding my interest or is poorly written. Now, as it comes to a close, I’ve corralled the reading I love into lists. Today is ... Read More...
