Rating this book was a huge struggle, because I can’t even pin down exactly how I feel about it. As you can see from my Overall Assessment, my ratings are all over the place, so overall I just feel confused about the impression this book on me.

Full list of Life of a Blogger topics. Last week’s topic: Clothing This week’s topic: Most prized possession Topic suggested by Anonymous I like nice things. I tend to hold my things in high regard (probably higher than I should). But, there’s only one object I own that I could never replace: Meet Lamby! (Don’t judge, I was 5 when I named him.) My daddy won him from a claw machine at a bowling alley for me when I was 5 years […]
Honestly, this is more of a rant than a discussion. I’ve bellyached many times about people spelling my name wrong, and I’m sure some of you have seen it.

It has this dark and gritty feel (picture Silent Hill after […]

Yep, that’s right. Quadruplets. A while back, Octavia did a discussion about book twins (I’m hers :D). I’m going to do my own, expanding on that because I now have 3 of them! Book Quadruplet #1 Ashley @ Nose Graze. Ashley was my first ever book twin! Out of all of them, I think her and I have the most similar tastes. For a couple of years now she’s always been the first place I go when I want to decide whether or […]
