As a reader, I use a fair amount of apps and websites to try and get the most out of my hobby. Whether it's by logging and tracking, finding something new to read, or granting access to free books. I mean, come on, who doesn't love free books? These five apps and websites are free,... Continue Reading →
If I had a nickel for every time I read a book titled Hex and was disappointed with it, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice. Not only that, but this is the second time I was under the impression said book was one way but turned out another.... Continue Reading →
Finally! Spooky season is almost here! Oh, I adore autumn. In my humble opinion, it is the superior season. The lovely crisp air, the crunch of leaves underfoot and beautiful shades of brown, gold and orange everywhere. Plus, it gives me an excuse to binge read horror novels. Not that I need justification, but it... Continue Reading →
I did it! I hit my 2021 reading goal! I am pretty proud of myself, not just for, well now, beating that goal, but also reading more classics this month. I even gave poetry another shot. This year has not been kind to me in many ways, reading has been one of the few sources... Continue Reading →

Not going to lie, I am still feeling a bit raw from the ending of this book days after finishing it. The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid tells the story of Evelyn Hugo and her legendary Hollywood career. Or rather, it is about Evelyn telling up-and-coming journalist Monique Grant her life story... Continue Reading →
Like a lot of people these days, I well and truly detest Amazon. I try my best to avoid it like the plague. Especially when it comes to book shopping. One time, I thought I found a great secondhand bookshop website. As it turns out, the website in question was bought by Amazon. Yeah, I... Continue Reading →
Sorry that today's post is a bit late, family obligations came up. Everything is fine, don't worry, it just threw off my timekeeping. I teased this upcoming review in my last post when I was about halfway through this book. Now that I finished it, I can give you a proper review. Dark Archives: A... Continue Reading →
Just two more books to go until I hit my reading goal for the year! I have got to say I am pretty proud of myself. Who knows, maybe I might even read double my target if I keep this pace up. This month I have learned a bit more about my reading wheelhouse, as... Continue Reading →
