The StoryGraph Tag

Posted March 15, 2021 in Bookish Things, Tags // 6 Comments

Hello everyone! As you may have heard, I’m a big fan of The StoryGraph. I love their clean design, their statistics and other various tracking resources, and their customer service. I also really like that they are not owned and operated by Amazon! But I digress. Here in the book community, we love book tags. And it occurred to me… we really need a tag for this new site! There are so many cool features and the fact that it’s literally designed to help people find new reads is screaming for a tag… because a lot of the time, book […]

Arrest The Cops Who Murdered Breonna Taylor… Also, My June 2020 Wrap Up

Posted July 6, 2020 in Checking In // 0 Comments

Hi everyone. I do just want to take a sec and address the title of this post, because it’s been months and the cops who killed her have not been brought to justice. Her family continues to suffer. If you haven’t already signed the petition for Breonna, please take a second to do so now. Additionally, if you are able to contribute, please consider donating to her family’s GoFundMe. Every dollar makes a difference, and money in this fund not only supports her family but also helps pay for the legal fees incurred in continuing to fight for justice for […]

Fall Book Tag

Posted October 1, 2018 in Tags // 4 Comments

A little more than a year ago, Kyera tagged me in The Fall Book Tag. At the time, my blogging schedule was so so full, I never found a place to put it without double-posting, but I saved it, because this is a lovely tag and I really wanted to make sure I did it! I love autumn. I live the whole year for Octobers. I’m a New Englander – autumn means jack-o-lanterns and sunset-colored treetops and apple cinnamon pie. Autumn has the best sights, smells, and weather where I live. This tag was practically made for me. <3 The rules: Please link back to […]

August Wrap Up

Posted August 27, 2018 in Checking In // 27 Comments

Hello everyone! How did August go for everyone? Summer is winding away, and autumn is nearly here! My August was busy with friends in the beginning and work at the end. I read some great books, ate some great food, and I am SO SO excited for September because I have a lot of fun stuff planned in September! As I’m writing this, I’ve got Black-ish on in background, eating some amazing bakery chocolate cream pie, hot tea… the porch door is wide open and my Lizzie cat is curled up right next to me. Can’t ask for much more than that. […]

Dandelion Wine by Ray Bradbury

Posted August 10, 2018 in Reviews // 0 Comments

Ray Bradbury’s Green Town series feels like a poetic response to L. M. Mongomery’s Anne of Green Gables. They’re both beautiful, lyrical works of art, and they both wrap you up in stories of growing up and growing older. Both follow children through mundane, magical adventures. Both wrap you up inside them until you are hopelessly lost and enchanted. Dandelion Wine has been on my TBR for years because of how iconic the sequel is – a few of you may be familiar with Something Wicked This Way Comes? I wasn’t sure what to expect – Something Wicked is introspective and spooky […]
