A Reading Journal for a New Mom
Gods of Jade and Shadow by Silvia Moreno-Garcia Source: Library TL;DR: The hype is real on this one if you enjoy mythological or fairy tale style stories. I recommend it highly. Thoughts: It's going to be hard for me to not gush all over this book. I checked it out of the library to see... Continue Reading →
Get a Life, Chloe Brown has been super hyped on my corners of the book-net, and so even though I don't usually enjoy contemporary or even go out of my way to find it I thought I'd give it a go since Romance is high on my list of 'easy to read' right now. Get... Continue Reading →
Most of what I read this month was Fruits Basket, though I picked up a few other things in my down time between reads. I also decided to DNF a series over the course of a month, ah well! I’ll start off with the single volume I read, Volume 5 of A Bride’s Story... Continue Reading →
So Rick Riordan Presents has had some hits and missing for me. Honestly mostly misses in the past year or so. Even one of my favorite authors completely missed the mark. This one though, very much a win! Click through for my loose thoughts. Tristan Strong Punches a Hole in the Sky by Kwame Mbalia... Continue Reading →

Retro Science Fiction and Fantasy has been a genre I’ve avoided since my teens. I read buckets of it as a young kid, it was all that was available to me in the library and so naturally I ate it like candy at the time. As I got older I got into the groove of... Continue Reading →
To Marry an English Lord is presented as a popular history style book that talks about the period of time during the Late Victorian era into the Edwardian era when it became common practice for rich Americans to attempt to net a title through marriage. My copy in particular had a large printed emblem that... Continue Reading →
Best Books of 2018 I generally don’t like making these lists but I thought I’d do a short one for the stuff that sticks in my mind. My husband in particular was interested in what I enjoyed most this year, and got me thinking about it anyway so I thought I’d go through and... Continue Reading →
So I’ve definitely need the happy endings you will always find in a romance novel (and yes, I’m a member of that camp, it’s not romance if it’s not a happy ending). So I’ve got a few that I’ve read that I thought I’d highlight and talk about. As far as series... Continue Reading →
