A Thousand Perfect Notes by C.G. Drews || Delicious in So Many Ways

A Thousand Perfect Notes by C.G. Drews || Delicious in So Many Ways

Let’s be honest: everyone knows Cait, a.k.a. PaperFury, a.k.a. C.G. Drews (she needs a lot of aliases because only boring people have just one). But did you know she did this really crazy thing called writing a book? It’s basically pulling a story out of thin air. Almost like magic, but with 100% less glitz and […]

The Astonishing Color of After by Emily X.R. Pan || Taiwanese Culture + Gorgeous Writing

Glad we got that out of the way. Thunderhead is book two in the Arc of a Scythe series by Neal Shusterman. This will probably have spoilers for book one because, well, that’s sort of how […]

Scythe by Neal Shusterman || Immortality But Also Humanity’s Probable Demise

Scythe by Neal Shusterman || Immortality But Also Humanity’s Probable Demise

I had so many people recommend I read this that I really couldn’t put it off anymore. Well, I mean, I suppose I could, but these people are writers and readers, which means not only are they creative, but they probably already know the best ways to make me disappear and get away with it, so […]
