It is 9:30 p.m. here and I have gone through nearly the whole day believing it was Tuesday. This is what happens when you take a Monday off! Since it is Wednesday (for a few more hours) it is also time for WWW Wednesday. Make sure and head over to Sam's site, Taking on a... Continue Reading →
Good Omens by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett
This book was one hundred percent, straight up, delightfully weird. There is no other way to describe the experience and no other books that compare. It was, quite simply, wonderfully odd. Originally entitled Good Omens, The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Alice Nutter, Witch this book was originally published in 1990. At the time, neither Neil Gaiman... Continue Reading →
Highland Crown by May McGoldrick
Do you love Diana Galbadon's Outlander Series? Or, like me, did you love books one through four but you just couldn't take it anymore? I mean, Jamie is great but can Claire just stay out of trouble for two minutes?!? Sheesh. If, like me, you love a lot of things about Outlander but not the infinite... Continue Reading →
WWW Wednesday: April 17, 2019
Last Wednesday got away from me but I'm back for this week and ready to stay on top of my reading (I need a push to get back on track with my posting though!). As always, a big thank you to Sam at Taking on A World of Words for hosting this meme which asks... Continue Reading →
The Field Guide to the North American Teenager by Ben Phillippe
I can't seem to stop reading cute high school romance books even though they are really not my favorite. I thought the premise of this book sounded fun - a fish out of water story told from the boy's perspective - but when I cracked into it I know I emitted a loud sigh. High School was not...

Magical Non-Fiction Friday: Newt Scamander’s Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them by J.K. Rowling
I am sitting for my O.W.Ls this month through the OWL Readathon hosted by G at Book Roast and I am more excited than I can possibly explain. The universe must sense my excitement because the library delivered an audiobook version of Fantastic Beasts early last evening. This is just one more reason I never make... Continue Reading →
WWW Wednesday: April 3, 2019
When I was in my reading funk Wednesdays made me so sad because I knew I should be posting but I didn't have anything to write about or organize. Today I feel great and I am so happy to say - it's Wednesday!!! Time for WWW Wednesday. Thanks, as always, goes to Sam at Taking on... Continue Reading →
My Non-OWL April 2019 Reading List
I am not an organized reader. Yesterday I posted my first quarter challenge updates and some things are going really well and others are suffering from the persistent mod reading. Something has to change! In addition to joining the OWL Readathon that was put together by G @ Book Roast, I am going to try making... Continue Reading →
2019 OWL Readathon Reading List
I realize that I am a day late in getting my reading list out but this was just TOO MUCH FUN to put together. After looking at my lame first quarter of reading I knew I needed a swift kick to the pants and so I went where all great minds seem to find inspiration... Continue Reading →
2019’s First Quarter Update
I would love to be the kind of person that is organized enough to do a monthly update but between my WWW posts and my backlog of reviews I was thinking maybe four times a year would be more my pace. With the first three months of 2019 behind us it is time to look... Continue Reading →
