Bookish goals and resolutions Read 100 books. This was my goal for 2015, but I didn’t quite make it. I was close though – 96 books! I’m hoping this year I can break into triple digits. Participate in at least two readathons. This shouldn’t be too hard – Bout of Books and Beat the Heat! Catch up on review copies. For a while there, I was crazy swamped with review copies. I’ve been doing great lately, though! My NetGalley ratio […]
I really enjoyed the Reading Bingo Challenge I did in 2015, so I decided to make my own Bingo Challenge for 2016! I made it completely from scratch, but I modeled it after the gorgeous reading bingo card from Random House’s website because I love theirs but wanted one of my own. (Okay, so it’s not as professional looking and epic as theirs is…but I tried.) It was a lot of fun to make and it’s definitely something I’d be […]
I don’t usually do things like this, but it looked so fun that I couldn’t help myself! I may end up participating in a couple of other challenges this week, who knows :) Would you rather… Lend books to someone who dog-ears pages or to someone who reads with cheesy Cheetos fingers? Eeek. Both are equally horrible, but I’d have to go with dog-eared pages. They can be folded back into some semblance of normal, but cheese? That sh*t ain’t […]

I had very mixed feelings about this book. I think the thing I enjoyed most about it was how seriously twisted it was. It was very dark, and I liked that! But sadly, that was where the enjoyment ended. There was a scene in the beginning pissed me off to the point that I very nearly DNFed it. I wanted to throw my Kindle against a wall! Erin has a cat (named Clint Eastwood…and it’s a female. Wtf….) that has […]
Two month haul Bought: Marauder’s Map tank top from Lulutops Badass looking knife – from a shop in Florida, it was super cheap! Voldemort’s wand necklace – got it for free, only paid shipping Harry Potter Film Wizardry – I had a bunch of Amazon Rewards points saved up, so I didn’t have to pay for it! I am like crazy impressed with the Film Wizardry book!! It’s got a lot of really neat stuff from the making of […]
