A Reading Journal
Favorite Retellings. That's a broad category, and a case can be made that almost everything is a retelling of some other, older story. I'm going to try and pick a few different... maybe styles? of retellings. Boy oh boy! Top 5 is of course created by Lainey at GingerReadsLainey. And as usual these are not... Continue Reading →
Volume six is going to be a little lackluster I feel. For that, I'm sorry. *shame* Last week was... a blur? I don't remember much of it honestly. But here is what my Goodreads tells me I read! I've Got Your Number by Sophie Kinsella ☆☆☆☆ Chick-lit is something I've not gotten into until... Continue Reading →
We're back! We're also agreeing right now, wrong or right that this is volume 5 and any missing volumes were always there just simply not available to view. If they are there now to look back at then excellent! They've returned! The Duchess War (Book One of The Brothers Sinister Series) by Courtney Milan... Continue Reading →
Alternately titled :Â This isn't a TBR, we all know I fail at those Though really I'm aware it is by it's very nature a TBR, I just refuse to call it that. If I call it by it's real name it gives it power. So as of writing this it's December 1st. It'll be December... Continue Reading →
So. I hated this movie. I'm really sorry if anyone who loves it chances upon this. I'm not going to go into all the details of why I hated it. I'll mostly touch on why it was a completely unfaithful adaptation, in my opinion, of the classic novel and why it failed. If you love the... Continue Reading →
Top 5 this week is 'The Top 5 Books I'm Thankful For'. This one should be interesting. I've been reading for so long it's going to be incredibly hard to pick! Top 5 is of course created by Lainey at GingerReadsLainey (who is a beautiful and lovely lady IRL, I still can't believe I met her!).... Continue Reading →
I can't count, but I'm pretty sure this is the fourth set of mini-reviews. I'm going to through a few in here, it's been awhile! As always these come straight (with maybe a little editing) from my Goodreads reviews. Envy of Angels by Matt Wallace (Tor.com Novella line) ☆☆☆☆    This was a wacky... Continue Reading →
Lazarus is a series by Greg Rucka, Michael Lark, and Santiago Arcas about a woman named Forever Carlyle. Forever is her Family's Lazarus. This means that she is their one woman army. The dystopian setting of this series has three castes of people. Those within a 'Family', the 'Serf' or those that work for the... Continue Reading →
My husband has this thing about dolls, puppets, and clowns. I never really thought much about it till recently when we went to see the Goosebumps movie. Now it all makes sense. In all honesty as a kid I was never crazy about Goosebumps. I read a few here and there. What I did like... Continue Reading →
YALLFest 2015 was amazing, just as good if not better than last year. It was smaller last year, with fewer panels, and fewer authors I knew then. This year it was full to brim of authors I knew, authors I had just discovered, and panels I wanted to get to. Naturally you can never get... Continue Reading →
