Let’s start this review out by acknowledging that I am inept at downloading e-books. If it’s not on Kindle and automatically downloads into the app, I am lost. I’ve had friends send me e-pub books to edit and my phone is just like “Nope. We see there’s a file here, but we do not acknowledge … Continue reading Christmas in May: Let Your Heart Be Light
You Don’t Read the Comment Section
Let’s play a game. Imagine you’re an author. (some of us this isn’t a huge stretch but work with me) It doesn’t have to be Kindle/ self/ publishing house published, let’s say you post your story on Wattpad (because there are some original stories there and I know of more than one story that has … Continue reading You Don’t Read the Comment Section
Everyone Needs a Good Ghost Story, Here are 13.
First, I want to say that this is going to sound like nepotism, but it’s truly isn’t. When I started this blog, I mentioned that I do not receive free books for honest reviews. Mostly because I am not that popular a book review blog to be getting free books and I know me, someone … Continue reading Everyone Needs a Good Ghost Story, Here are 13.
There’s Something Odd About that Girl
As I mentioned in my last blog, I went to the bookstore with the intention to buy books. Lots of books. And was sadly disappointed. But I did manage to find one on my list and I’ll be discussing that today. I know there’s a mild controversy over adults reading YA books but honestly, some … Continue reading There’s Something Odd About that Girl
Bookstore Adventures and Goodreads
I’m not going to lie, I had a serious block regarding this week’s blog post. That and I’m switching my post days from Wednesday to Friday because WordPress said so. I was going to drop a book review this week, but I second guessed myself. The library reopened a few weeks ago in my city … Continue reading Bookstore Adventures and Goodreads
Variations on Sherlock Holmes Canon Are Not New.
On my other blog, I discussed the book series Enola Holmes, the (at the time) upcoming Netflix series based on Nancy Springer’s series and the lawsuit from the Conan Doyle estate that stated that the series was infringing on as of yet copywritten stories and that the series gave Sherlock Holmes too much emotion. Well … Continue reading Variations on Sherlock Holmes Canon Are Not New.
And In the End, There’s Always Madeleine.
Books are wonderful things. They can make you laugh or cry. You can love some and hate other. They can educate and can make you think about your own internal issues. I didn’t go into this month to be taught anything, I thought in honor of Femslash February, I’d read and review a few w/w … Continue reading And In the End, There’s Always Madeleine.
Delighted Surprises and the Art of Celestial Mechanics
It’s February and I had a post to go and all it needed was a bit of editing when last week in one of my groups, I was informed that it is Femslash February. What this means is writers use this time to write and highlight female/female relationship stories. And while I need to probably … Continue reading Delighted Surprises and the Art of Celestial Mechanics

Is It Ever Too Late for a Christmas Story?
I know I’m late with this and that fluffy Christmas romance book reading is over for the year, just like the Hallmark movies, but I really wanted to review this book and give it it’s due. I had a bit of time between Thanksgiving and Christmas and just needed something fluffy and sweet to clear … Continue reading Is It Ever Too Late for a Christmas Story?
