A Reading Journal
Another installment! Look at me go! Just a mix this time, articles, books, and research ideas. An article I really found interesting over on Book Riot talked about how the New Hunger Games Novel helped the author realize how she's almost aged out of some of YA tropes - something I intensely agree and feel....

I knew next to nothing about Buddhism. Pretty much the base level of pop-culture references plus a few fly-away facts I'd picked up while studying Japanese in college. One afternoon while picking up my holds I broke my own library rules and browsed the new non-fiction releases shelf and grabbed this just for fun. Frankly,... Continue Reading →
I thought I'd make a post sharing some of the things I've seen/read/watched on the web recently. This might be something I turn into a series of posts or it could be just a one-off sort of thing. That being said, some of this stuff I've really enjoyed and I think it's fair to share... Continue Reading →
I've been trying to read all the Rick Riordan imprint books. I love the idea behind the imprint and so far I've enjoyed almost all of these books and the unique spins the authors give them. The standout for me so far has been Tristan Strong - but this one... might rival that one for... Continue Reading →

This is one of those few really heavy and hard books that I think everyone should... Continue Reading →
I had some mixed thoughts on this one. I think maybe they have even soured in the time since I finished the book. A Madness of Sunshine by Nalini Singh Source : Library eBookTL;DR : Not the strongest, lots of melodrama and tropes Thoughts: I need to go ahead and get the biggest complaint out...

So. This is not a book for everyone. Just going to open this post off with that. This is simultaneously a (at times) deeply drawn fantasy novel and a very graphic romance novel. Think Conan the Barbarian meets romance, in a setting with dinosaurs and more magic. And there were zombies at one point. It... Continue Reading →
I felt like May was… a gaping hole in my memory. The month flew by and I barely remember a lot of what I did and read. June has been, well we all know how much of a mess June has been, but May was a special kind of strange for me. Books I should... Continue Reading →
So I firmly don’t believe my voice should be used to silence any voices that really matter in this topic. I’m also not very eloquent, many others are much better at this. As someone said online allies should be shields not swords. So we’ll just go ahead and make clear - this blog and writer... Continue Reading →
