I received a copy of this story through NetGalley in exchange for my honest review. I had absolutely no idea of what to expect when confronted with this story. It sounded interesting, so I requested it and it found its way to my Kindle. The description gives away very little (including not telling me something … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: MIRRORED HEARTS by Emily Sheppard

So I've found a bunch of lists that have Ideas For Blog Posts (for us people who can't come up with enough things to talk about) and I was going back through my old posts to make sure I didn't repeat any topics--or at least if I did, they were topics I hadn't talked about … Continue reading So About That Reading Challenge…
I did it! I finally read the damn thing! Everyone should be very proud of me. It's an interesting departure for me, given that my only experience before this with Wendig's writing (that isn't a tweet or blog post) was the Heartland trilogy. And Miriam Black and her world aren't even remotely close to that … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: BLACKBIRDS by Chuck Wendig
I'm fairly certain I picked this up from a BookBub promotion probably a couple years ago now (okay, I just checked and I exaggerate, it's only been almost a year) but it's another that I have no clue why I picked it up. It's continuing on in my apparent interest in reality TV show style … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: WELCOME TO PARADISE by Rosalind James
(Full disclosure: I do know the author, but I purchased the book on my own and was not asked to review it--in fact, he told me he was afraid for me to read it! This is my honest review.) I wanted this to come out last week, since the author just released his rebranded version of … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: SONGS OF INSURRECTION by JC Kang
So for the first time--I think--in my entire tenure as a NetGalley reviewer, I actually have a feedback ratio above 80%. Woo! (This is where they recommend your ratio to be.) It's not come without some effort, and it should get higher as I continue to review some of the books I have. But oh … Continue reading Don’t Tell Me You Don’t Have Time
Laura and I have seen each other around social media for a while now (and she's proven to be an excellent critique partner; if ever I write more of Rem and Sam's romance, it'll be thanks to her) so when she started talking about this book, I was incredibly excited to read it. Not just … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: SIGNS OF ATTRACTION by Laura Brown
At the end of last month, I believe, the Goodreads group for Tuesday Talks asked us to make a video explaining to the non-readers of the world what we thought they were missing. I had some trouble trying to orient my thoughts into something that made sense in a video, and I figured I'd try … Continue reading Dear Non-Reader…
...and I'd like to wipe them out. Yes, you heard me. I want these books off of my shelf. I want the whole shelf to be empty. I want all the books gone. Here's the bookshelf that lives next to my desk: Don't mind the cat food. I share my space, as any good cat … Continue reading I’ve Got Some Books On My Shelf…
I am not lost...
