Well, of all the things I thought might happen this March I could never have come up with where we are now. I'll spare you the contents of my brain churning with the anxiety I have not only over family and friends flung across America, but all the people who have lost their jobs, the people sick and struggling. I feel helpless. So, while it feels a little frivolous to write ... Read More...
February Reading Wrap-Up
The roller coaster that was my January reading ground to a halt in February. I can’t even blame the weather because Michigan has had one of its most mild winters (so far!) in years. Instead, it seems as if it’s something larger in the air because most of the readers and bloggers I know reported the same thing. Sadly, this means I’m going to sound crankier than ever in this ...

Both of which make this monthly recap a bit shocking: December was far and away one of the best month’s I’ve ever had for reading! Seriously, I’m a little bit giddy here. Out of the 17 books I read, 12 got 3.5 stars or higher. I ... Read More...
Creepy December
I realize December is supposed to be a month of comfort and joy, but for whatever reason, my reading has taken a seriously creepy turn. Maybe it’s because I’m reading mostly backlist books, meaning I go to the library and whatever catches my eye I borrow. So, thrillers have the best covers? Who knows. Here are two novels that left me wonderfully freaked out and buried in books ... Read More...
