It’s time for a blast from the past! But, you know, in that really dorky way that only bookdragons can pull off. Because we’ve got to be good at something, and clearly this whole people thing isn’t working out, and it’s not looking great for having realistic expectations, either. Remember when you were young and […]
I stumbled across this series by chance, as you do, and noticed it has assassins and pirates and magic, and there’s just physically no way I could pass that up. I mean, I’m only human … ish. Mostly. Sometimes. Point is, I’m a major sucker for both assassins and pirates, and having them both in […]
It’s time again to ask ourselves the three W’s:Who’s on first?What’s on second?What’s the left fielder’s name? 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 Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Sam @Taking on a World […]
The best thing about reading fantasy: adorable, cuddly, potentially fatal beasts! Growing up, I was that nerdy little kid who wanted to be Newt Scamander, because what could possibly be better than getting to travel the world documenting and interacting with magical beasts?! Is that not the life? Oh, sure, they’re dangerous, but isn’t everything […]
Remember how I said I would not (emphasis on the not) do a bookshelf tour because mine were bordering on chaos and were likely to eat me if I attempted it? Well … surprise! Okay, not going to lie, my shelves were a horrible mess. They’re still a mess. They will probably be a mess […]
Right off the bat, I want to make it clear that I’m not talking about Marvel or DC or any of the popular heroes we’ve come to know and love. Even though we do, obviously, love them. And regardless of what Edna from The Incredibles thinks, capes are sexy and 100% recommended. I mean, if […]
It’s time again to ask ourselves the three W’s:What’s all the hubbub, bub?What didja expect?Eh, what’s up, Doc? 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 Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Sam @Taking on a […]
We all know the book is always better than the movie. But the movie has beloved actors and pretty pictures and mood music and … popcorn. I mean, let’s be honest, a lot of us are just in it for the popcorn, and there’s nothing wrong with that. Theater popcorn is delicious. Besides, when’s the […]
It’s no secret that I read A LOT of YA books, which tend to suffer from the dead or absent parent trope. Which, pragmatically, I understand, because what sane mother is allowing their child, chosen or otherwise, to take on dark lords, ride dragons, and put their lives on the line?! But as a mother […]
It’s time again to ask ourselves the three W’s:Why do books have to end?What will we do with ourselves now?Why have the authors forsaken us? 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 Wednesday is a weekly […]
