I have been meaning to make this post ever since I started back in October – it was originally a “where I’ve been post” because this is 1/2 of the reason I disappeared (and kind of fell off the face of the planet) for a couple of months. (The other 1/2 is my new library which I will get to in a separate post!) Back in fall last year, I was spending a FORTUNE on bookish candles. THE OBSESSION IS […]

This is not a book about dragons. In fact, dragons make an appearance exactly three times in this entire book. Yes, three. THREE. IN THREE HUNDRED PAGES.

Yes. I […]

It’s time for another year of the Prequel & Sequel Challenge! With Melissa @ Writer Grrl Reads as a wonderful co-host, we’re giving it another go in 2017! So let’s face it. We sucked at keeping up with the challenge last year, but I’m hoping we can be more active with it this year! I PROMISE we will try to do more with the challenge this time, but no guarantees. We both have busy schedules. Welcome to the 2017 Sequel & […]
