The Heart Goes Last – A Review
I recently got a chance to review and ARC (Advance Review Copy) of The Heart Goes Last by Margaret Atwood. And I’m very excited to be able to share my thoughts on this book with you today. So what’s this book about anyway? A Synopsis – Stan and Charmaine are a married couple trying to…
Read MoreBook It – Reading on the Road
September has been a busy month, with a family reunion, and a wedding, but I seem to have gotten back into my reading groove. The 10 hours I spent in the car to and from the wedding might have had something to do with it. And I’m also happy to have caught up with the…
Read MoreBooklr Questions – Where is your favorite place to read?
Where is your favorite place to read? I hate to be a cliche, but my favorite place to read is probably in the tub. I’m a big fan of a nice warm bubble bath and a good book. Now if I could just figure out how to avoid getting my books wet. What’s you favorite…
Read MoreBook It – Short Fictions and Disturbances
August has been a light month of reading for me. I lost two whole weeks of reading to moving into our new home. And since then, there have still been boxes to unpack and decorating to do, so I’ve had less time to read. That’s thanks in part to using a reading challenge that’s expanded…

My favorites were the ones that centered on Heero Yuy, one of the five primary gundam pilots. These days, I don’t really read fan-fiction anymore.…

7 months into this reading challenge, and I’ve read more great stories than one person deserves to read in a year. That’s thanks in part to using a reading challenge that’s expanded the types of books I’ve been reading. You can see the goals for my reading list on the 2015 Reading List from PopSugar.…
Read MoreBooklr Question – Have you met any authors?
Have you met any authors? I haven’t met any famous authors. As much as I love to read, I’ve never been one for going out of the way to meet authors of the books I love. Maybe it’s because I don’t live near a large city, where most book signings are held, but it’s more…
