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. Weather aside, what a month. I can ... Read More...
It’s a Mystery: Mini-Reviews
My timing may be off for conjuring all things creepy and mysterious, but somehow these three books found their way to me in the last month and I didn’t want to delay sharing them. And honestly, if all you read in the summer are beachy, light reads you’ll get bored. Sure it’s great to be scared on a dark and stormy night, but it’s just as fun when you’re sitting in broad ...

Summer Fun Reading: Mini-Reviews
Let's face it, this is not the time of year for War and Peace. Actually, I'm not sure there's ever a time for War and Peace, but that's another post.

This could also be called chick-lit, but while I think that’s a fun term I know there are plenty of women that think it's offensive. Political correctness aside, what I’m ... Read More...
April Library Checkout
Another month gone?! I'd be more worried if we weren't in the midst of spring here in Seattle. Who can worry when everything is blooming?! April was another slow month for new releases so I was able to continue with a lot of April library checkouts. That's going to change in May because I have a lot of upcoming May release books I want to read AND I'll be going to BookExpo ... Read More...
It’s Not You, It’s Me: Commitment Issues
When I was young, I got around—reading three or four books at the same time, juggling plots, themes, and characters with abandon, but now I’m a responsible reader—no longer one of those flighty, ‘I’m-going-to-read-around’ kind of gals. Or so I thought, but the last two months have found me playing fast and loose with my reading again. Starting a book, then ignoring it ... Read More...
