It seems that October is paranormals month. Maybe it has to do with Halloween being this month, but all I seem to want to read are paranormals. I started out with older Kay Hoopers (Out of the Shadows, Whisper of Evil) and then moved onto her newer books. To be honest, I had all but given …
What Am I Reading?
Snow Day Reading?
Here on the East Coast we had a pretty big snow storm yesterday–we got more than twice what was predicted and I know a lot of people stayed home from work and school today because of the snow and frigid temperature combination. I actually managed not shoveling today (my aunt stayed home and used the …
2013 in Books and What I Most Look Forward to Reading in 2014
As the sun sets on 2013, I am looking back at everything I have read in the past year. There are a lot of books, both good and bad, but mostly somewhere in between–those 3 star books that were neither awesome or awful. They’re average, and that isn’t a bad thing. Being average means that …
The Books I Am Looking Forward to Reading
It seems that I am back in the reading swing of things and there are a few books that I’m chomping at the bit to read. 1. Shadow of Night by Deborah Harkness: I’m currently reading A Discovery of Witches and I am just loving it. The writing is wonderful and I really like the world …
My Current Reads
Since finding out that I need to have 4 teeth out a couple of weeks ago, I haven’t been in the mood to do much other than binge on Netflix. However, I have recently started two books, What Happens in London by Julia Quinn, which I am sad to say isn’t as engaging as the other …
Going Through Another Dry Spell
Since finishing The Passion of the Purple Plumeria, I have been struggling to get through a single book. First, there was Dukes to the Left of Me, Princes to the Right, which as anyone that has read this blog in the past week and a half knows, I absolutely hated it. Then, I decided to re-read the …
Trying a New Author
Until recently, I pretty much stuck with the same authors, my bookshelves looking like an homage to Nora Roberts/J.D. Robb and Karen Rose. I was loathe to try anyone new, and honestly I’m not sure why. I didn’t start out only wanting to read one author (boy would my reading have been limited–7 books until Casual …
The Obligatory “What I’m Reading Now” Post
Over the last few days I haven’t been reading all that much–I guess finishing two books in two days takes a lot out of a girl. That definitely played a part in it, but I’ve been in such shock over Cory Monteith’s death that I haven’t really been in the mood to read since the …
What I’m Reading Now
Anyone that has known me since I was a kid knows that I absolutely hated reading. None of the books that I was assigned to read at school were very interesting–at times they were so boring that I literally fell asleep while reading them (why, hello A Separate Peace–8th grade summer reading), so it came as …
