I’m rather proud of the fact I read 49 books last year. Like everyone else in the world, with the exception of a few folks who follow the spread of viruses, I had no idea we’d be playing a real-life version of Pandemic and figured...
Well – things kinda got away from me, and I haven’t kept the blog up to date with what I’ve been reading / listening to. Sorry about that. I’ve proven that I can burn through audiobooks. And I don’t know if...
June and July felt like they moved at a snails pace. Most of that was due to the book I read in June, which felt like such a chore to get through. Then, not learning my lesson, I did something similar in July… Let’s jump in...
My life hasn’t gotten any less complicated or busy. Hence the lateness of this post. My reading has slowed, but I’ve also been reading much larger books – which doesn’t necessarily help. On top of that, I completed a...
March sucked. Seriously. Work has been crazy busy and home has been difficult and stressful. I listened to far fewer books than previous months, finding it difficult to concentrate on books and instead blasting music whenever I could just to...
February started with a hangover from January – The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson. Holy crap! What a massive book. I think this is what they mean when they say ‘epic fantasy’. 45 hours! O_O BUT – I loved it! SO much...
January was a good month for me, reading wise. I booked through Butcher’s Codex Alera on Audible and loved it. I also loved Kate Reading’s voice, which made me seek out something else she’s read, which led me to The Way of Kings...
For the first time in forever, I’ve read enough books to warrant wanting to brag about it. What better way to brag than by writing a round-up blog post?! Nothing short of a stage, a microphone and some sort of sparklie lights, of course...
So. I’ve read 12 books this year. That’s probably a record for me lately. I know it doesn’t compare to Sarah’s epic number (what? 200? 300? 27,000?! more?), but, hey – for me? Pretty damned good. That’s...
February’s free eBook giveaway is now available for purchase via Amazon.com and Barnes and Noble! A lot of people downloaded Witchcraft & Satyrs when I gave it away to members of my email list, but now I’ve uploaded it to Amazon...
January’s free eBook giveaway is now available for purchase via Amazon.com! A lot of people downloaded Consumption when I gave it away to members of my email list in January, but now I’ve uploaded it to Amazon and am selling it for...
The smallest things can sometimes turn us off. At least, that’s what I have always found. Take Borders, for example. They announced today they are closing 200 stores costing them $2million a week. These unprofitable locations are spread...
