July has turned out to be a schizo kind of month, both for my reading and for life. On the life side it began with all my energy focused on getting us out of Seattle, into an apartment, and getting Seattle house rented out—all by the end of the month. 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.

They piled unreliable ... Read More...

On the personal side there was what was known in Seattle as Snowmageddon: 10 days when we were slammed with 3 different storms that left us with 15” inches of snow, unplowed roads, and empty grocery stores. I realize all you readers in places where snow is the norm are laughing right now, but we don’t get snow. Period. This was huge. People were cross ... Read More...
Backlist Mini-Reviews
I may not have mentioned this, but December was my version of spring break. Not in the jello-shots-sunburn-sleep-on-the-floor way, but in that I read only what I wanted to. It's not a month with a lot of new releases so I spent a lot of time at the library, browsing shelves, and looking at my to-be-read list of recommendations from other bloggers to find backlist books I didn't ...
