I've been thinking over this system that seems to have been adopted to review books and decided to do a quick look at how I rate things. I've always rated by my gut. As soon as I finish things I picked the number that most accurately reflected my thoughts at that moment. This makes for... Continue Reading →

Warcraft Weekends : HighMountain and Stormheim (or Dear Goddess don’t let me fall)

DiverseAThon! TBR and Recommendations
     I feel like I shouldn’t have to explain why diversity is important, but here we are. People are still making disgusting videos and posts fighting against diversity and representation. It almost makes my brain short circuit, I simply do not understand the want to read the same characters over and... Continue Reading →
