My reading is restricted these days almost exclusively to my Kindle. So I'm not being too picky when it comes to things that look interesting - and are on sale. Turning Darkness Into Light by Marie Brennan is the start of a series that follows up the Natural History of Dragons series she completed a... Continue Reading →
Thoughts: Shades of Milk and Honey by Mary Robinette Kowal
This has been on my TBR for ages. I love Jane Austen - no surprise there, I think a great deal of bookish readers my age do, and I love magic so combine those two flavors and you have a winner. I unfortunately never managed to get my hands on a copy so while feeding... Continue Reading →
Series Thoughts: Fruits Basket
Everyone should be impressed - I have managed to finish a series. This is unusual for me, especially during such a stressful time as the past 4 months have been. I got lucky and was able to get most of the series through my library and the last 5 volumes my friend let me borrow... Continue Reading →
Series Thoughts: Steeple #1-5
Giant Days is by far my favorite comic book series that I’ve kept up. Even when cutting my book budget down to the minimum I saved the money for each volume that came out. So when I spied a new John Allison series starting I jumped on board without even looking at the... Continue Reading →
February Haul/Unhaul
This has been a slow month. I had a baby on the 27th of January so I haven't been out of the house much or done much shopping. I've also read a lot of things on Kindle as opposed to any of my physical books so that's limited my intake as well. But let's see... Continue Reading →
Thoughts : The Epic Crush of Genie Lo by F.C. Yee
I'm sure the title of this one was meant to be a double meaning sort of thing. "Haha, look, she has a crush on someone who is epic and also she can crush things in an epic fashion!" But I 100% think that missed it's mark. I remember hearing about this originally and thinking -... Continue Reading →
Thoughts: Exit Strategy by Martha Wells
I'm terrible at keeping up with series. Unless they're a comic series where it's a fast read you can bet I hardly ever do finish it. I am more than happy to admit that's because I don't want to be disappointed by follow up books. If I enjoy a story I don't want to read... Continue Reading →
Sample Saturday: February
It is Sample Saturday again, where I reading 6 different samples to see if I want to skip them, buy them, or check them out of the library. This time we have some climate sci-fi, some humorous sci-fi, and several different flavors of fantasy to try on! I did these in sets of three this... Continue Reading →
Thoughts: Moan: Anonymous Essays on Female Orgasm
So. This is a topic of which I can safely say I've not read any non-fiction about. I've read plenty of romance with plenty of moans, plenty of orgasms but nothing within the non-fiction realm that really looks at people's experiences or opinions. I figured there is a first time for everything though right?! Moan:... Continue Reading →
January 2020 Wrap-up Part 2
Part two of my wrap-up is here if January 2020! So most of the books I read this month, like I mentioned in the Part One post got their own posts, but there were a few that slipped past that I just had a few notes on. Things that interested me but that I didn't want... Continue Reading →
