Let’s Chat about DNFing

For a long time, DNFing wasn’t something I even considered. I always finished a book, whether I loved it or hated it. Then someone asked me why, and I didn’t have an answer. Why was I so intent on finishing a book I might not even enjoy. As she pointed out, life is too short […]

Cover Love: Flower Power

I know, I know. You’re not supposed to judge a book by its cover. But sometimes there are some covers that are just impossibly eye-catching! Here’s some of my favorites! What are your favorites?

At first sight…

I love books, I love bookstores, I love libraries! Rows and rows of books, the beautiful spines, the smell of the paper. Each one represents a new story, a new world, new ways of life. There are so many books to hold, to touch, to experience. So many books and not enough time to read […]

And let’s chat: The TBR Edition

My TBR is insane, both on my Kindle and on my actual bookshelf. I set absolutely no goals of ever working through it because no sooner do I make headway and I get new ones. Then you add in the library, and I’m screwed! Here’s a taste of my TBR: The Whole Golden World by […]

For the love of fear…

I love, love, love a good horror novel! It’s my dad’s fault. He introduced me to John Saul and Dean Koontz and Stephen King when I was barely out of middle school. The scarier the better. I don’t know what it is about them, but I can open the cover and be lost for hours. […]
