So up until recently I've been pretty staunchly against audio books. I'm a busy body. I have to have something to do with my hands.

I think one or two of these are catch up but the rest are pretty recent reads! Tailchaser's Song by Tad Williams ☆☆☆☆ This was a reread for me. I originally picked this up back in my early years, I think I was maybe 12 or 13? I surprisingly remembered a lot of... Continue Reading →

So this year I've decided to embrace my weird obsession with tracking what I'm reading. I love updating Goodreads.
