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. Adrienne is 14 when ... Read More...
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.

That all came to a stop and I’ll be in our house until October, but it’s left me discombobulated because Jed had to move now for ... Read More...
Summer Fun Reading: Mini-Reviews
Summer fun reading means something different to everyone. For some it's a chance to finally slow down and sink into longer, deeper reading, but for others it's a time of toss-away reading—books that you're not invested in, that you don't care if they get left behind at the beach, pool, or vacation spot. It's not a bad thing. In fact, it can be a welcome relief after reading ... Read More...
