I don't know about you, but the few months of the year always fly by for me. I'll put something off for a couple days and look up to realize weeks have now passed!

Reading Roundup #61: Secrets, Schemes, & Swashbuckling Dreams

Reading Roundup #7: Can You Do the Fandango?
Why yes, we have been busy this week! The best thing about work holidays is all the reading time! And with the exception of a Bridgerton marathon on Christmas day, I didn't waste a minute of reading time (not that watching Bridgerton was a waste, of course). We've got an old favorite in the ranks … Continue reading Reading Roundup #7: Can You Do the Fandango?
The Book Addiction Tag 2020
Two things you should know about me (among a few others, sure, but we'll start with these): 1) I'm an opportunist when it comes to book-talk, and 2) I'm a fan of the booktube channel Amrita by the Book. So when Amrita did a video for The Book Addiction 2020 tag, I decided I'd hop … Continue reading The Book Addiction Tag 2020
