Category Archives: For the love of books

A book post for a change… First let me be clear, I have come to a point in my life that I will no longer waste time reading books that are not compelling to me. There are enough books in the world that will, so why keep reading something that isn’t working for me? IContinue reading “I Cheat Read My Way Through My Latest Book 😮”

Just a reminder, most posts are meant to be tongue in cheek 😁. Hello My Lovelies! I hope you are all well this first week of spring (although I suspect in some places it’s spring in name only 🌨). Anyway, I have a question my dear readers – I have been good about not complaining about pandemicContinue reading “The Pandemic Finally Broke Me”

I realized that I hadn’t done a decent book post in a while, so here we are 😁! I thought I would do a year in review of my reading selections from 2021.  First, I read 24 books this year averaging about 390 pages per book. The longest book from last year – Chains of IronContinue reading “It’s About the Books”

While it may seem that I’m not enjoying it, I think it’s more of a case that I’m in a bit of a reading slump, which happens from timeContinue reading “Quoting the King”

I want to spend a few minutes on Us Against You (Beartown for those who watched it on HBO) because the writing is very different from what I’m used to. I don’t know if the difference could be attributed to the person who translated it, but I suspect that it’s that original author’s voice. How is itContinue reading “My Books Need to be Freed”

Currently reading: Finished Chain of Iron by Cassandra Clare and about to begin Us Against You by Fredrik Bachman (the source material for Beartown on HBO, FYI). This book post begins with an apology for missing the last two weeks, even though I had a good reason (walk thru one week, unpacking the next). IContinue reading “FB Author Fan Groups”
