So if we can’t judge books by their cover, what does that leave us with? The title? I mean, this is great, in theory, when you’ve got gorgeous titles like the ones I featured last week in Extraordinary Titles That Demand Some Attention. But what about the rest of them? Titles come in all different […]
Every job has its perks and shortcomings, and working in a library is really no different. Except for being surrounded by all the books and sitting there all day listening to them hiss, “Pick meeee,” and totally judging you when you don’t. Technically, I’m NOT a librarian, per se (not certified, anyway). I’m just the […]
It’s time to play “guess that book” and also watch our TBRs weep. “First Line Fridays” is by Hoarding Books and is all about the first line of a current/upcoming read. Friday 56 is a meme hosted by Freda’s Voice, where you turn to page 56 (or 56%) in what you’re reading a find a snippet that jumps out […]

I have a confession: I’ve never watched Lost Girl. Don’t hate me. BUT I was, however, tagged for this by the creator, Leelynn @ Sometimes Leelynn Reads. Since this is her original tag, I want to support her. Totally that and not because, one, the graphics she made (which I chose to use) are sweet […]
It’s time again to ask ourselves the three W’s:Would you take the trials to become a Blade?Would you seek vengeance or justice?What would your shadow creature be, young darkin? Wait, no, that’s not right. We ask these three W’s:What are you currently reading?What did you recently finish reading?What do you think you’ll read next? WWW […]
