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 […]
Fact #1: I’m very much a mood reader.Fact #2: Not all rain is created equal. On the surface, this prompt seems perfect for me, because yay, mood reading! But … what exactly does rain mean? I live in Tornado Alley, so rain for me means thunderstorms more often than not. And hail means tornado. Just, […]
Because every book deserves a hug, am I right? And someone to gaze lovingly at its cover and fangirl over its characters and stalk the author until they publish another book, even if it’s under duress because they’re chained to a room in your house.

That being said, the beautiful thing about books is that they help us travel the world, all from the safety and relative comfort of our living room. You can learn about other cultures, “see” the […]
Despite what the weather seems to think, Spring has just about sprung! Never mind the incoming snow. Ahem. Where I live, spring means ungodly allergies, thunderstorms, and flooding, which is … perfect weather for reading? I mean, it seems as good a time as any, really. So here’s my spring reading TBR list. There’s honestly […]
You know what they say: laughter is the best medicine. I’m actually not sure who they are or how they arrived at this conclusion.
