Time to Listen

March 20, 2015

Ideally, I’d love to read all the time. All right, check that. I mean, all the time I’m not watching bad television because, yes, I do watch bad television. Namely, almost anything on Bravo but… I digress. There are times when reading a book is not advisable, like when driving, and times when it’s not so easy: waiting in line, doing chores (which I don’t advise doing but to ... Read More...

It’s Monday, March 16th: What Are You Reading?

March 16, 2015

Last week involved wrapping up some big reading and then trying to corral my thoughts into something articulate. I’m referring to A Little Life, one of the most difficult but poignant books I’ve ever read. To compound things I read Our Endless Numbered Days last week and it’s another complex piece of literary fiction (my review will be later this week). That’s why it may not be ... Read More...

It’s Monday January 26th: What are You Reading?

January 26, 2015

jaguar's children

It’s not often most people get to say this but I am SO HAPPY about this Monday. Enough so, that I’m going to stray off the bookish topic to explain why. Most of you know that I live in Seattle but you may not know that currently my husband and I live in a small rental house and that we’ve been looking for a house of our own for a year. Who knew Seattle was one of the most ... Read More...

It’s Monday January 19th: What are You Reading?

January 19, 2015

It’s another Monday (funny how they keep showing up) and I’m back to share what I’m reading now as part of a meme from Sheila at Book Journey. When we met last week there seemed to be a general malaise about good books and reading so I'm hoping things a little peppier for you all. I’m not un-slumped yet except for The Undertaker’s Daughter which I finished this past weekend and ... Read More...

Monday January 12th: What Are You Reading?

January 12, 2015

It’s the second Monday in January but feels more like the beginning of the year. Or maybe I just wish it was because, two weeks in and I’m not being bowled over by anything I’m reading. At the end of the year, I was reading a book that rocked me so hard (Vanessa and Her Sister) I’m going to break all the rules and include it in my best of 2015 when next December comes around. ...

#AMonthofFaves: 2014 Timeline

December 26, 2014

month of faves

I'm a bit late to the game but Traveling with T and Estella's Revenge are two of the fab book bloggers who came up with the A Month of Favorites event. They've been working it hard but it was T's post about her year-in-review that piqued my interest and made me curious to see I've done this year. So, without further ado here are the bits and bobs of my reading ... Read More...
