Anyone who knows me and what I like to read is probably rolling on the floor laughing right now because I don’t read nonfiction. Stop it! You’re hurting my feelings. I don’t consciously discriminate against it, but if faced with two books and one is fiction and one is not, I’m going to dive at the fiction. This is scientifically borne out in my reading stats for 2016: ... Read More...
July Reading Wrap-Up
Based on the calendar I know it was summer, but the only way I believed it was hearing from friends and family how they were melting away in intense heat. Seattle hovered in the 60s or lower for most of the month. I'm not complaining except it is nice to actually see a pedicure when you've gotten one and when it stays chilly I wear socks.

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. So, like any good librarian I hit the library and it was the ... Read More...
It’s Not You It’s Me: Mini-Reviews
Sometimes people say “It’s not you, it’s me” just to get out of a relationship but in the case of today’s books I really do believe they’re both good options—probably great for any number of readers. It may have been my mood, the color of the cover, the fact that’s it’s been raining for a month—who knows, but both are well-written on topics that will keep you reading. ... Read More...
