Wilderwood #1 As I work through my backlog of books for reviews, I figure I'll start with what I read most recently and then work backwards. Through the whole year. Because I don't think I've really written a review for anything I've read since February... Plus, bonus, in starting with this one, I can share… Continue reading For the Wolf by Hannah Whitten
As you will know from my last review, I greatly enjoyed Taylor Jenkins Reid’s Daisy Jones & The Six, so it seemed a no-brainer to then read her book, The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo. All I really knew about The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo was that it sounded like it was going to share some similarities to… Continue reading The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid
I've been conspicuously absent I fear. I've read so few books in the past six months I am ashamed to call myself a bookseller. I am, however, very much a hobby person and every few years a new hobby takes over my life and eats up all my time and right now I'm baking a… Continue reading Summer Reading Favorites
Like many people, this past year has not been easy for me. I’ve been living alone for the majority of it, and as much as my cat tries, she cannot actually hold a conversation with me. I’ve also gone through slumps in my reading, but this year I’ve read some books that I’m not sure… Continue reading Daisy Jones & The Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid

Watching Tony travel the world, try new foods, integrate himself into the… Continue reading Bourdain Day

I first read it after the movie came out and my friends and I became obsessed with the movie. And then I was a bit disappointed that both of my parents… Continue reading Tokyo Ever After by Emiko Jean

While normally I have actually at least blurb read all of the books I feature for the new releases, I've decided to start including all the… Continue reading New This Month: May 2021
Seven weeks ago I started a journey I never wanted to go on - my doctor found a lump (which turned out to be three) in my breast. I'm about the same age my mom was (early thirties) when she was first diagnosed with cancer (non-smoker's lung) and it's been my greatest fear (other than… Continue reading Breaking Free of a Reading Slump
It has been many long months since I've shared the books coming out that I've been most excited for, it's been a long start to the new year to say the least. But there is nothing quite like the excitement of new titles coming out, so in addition to sharing what's new in April, I've… Continue reading New This Month: April 2021 (+ Jan-Mar)
