When I began blogging years ago, there was an awesome weekly meme called Waiting on Wednesday that gave me so many amazing book ideas and authors that I’d never read yet to look up. Sadly, WoW isn’t being hosted by Breaking the Spine now, so I let that weekly event fall by the side. Recently […]

There are small things that I’ll overlook (for the most part) in any story. I don’t nitpick in reviews about grammar or typos. I’m reviewing the […]
I made a decision back in December ’17 that I was going to get unread titles off of my Kindle in 2018 come hell or high water or words to that effect. One way that I can help myself and have a bit of fun with that declaration is by joining in the COYER Winter […]
