Two standout books met a slowdown in motivation for me to read...
August Wrap Up | 8 Books
Should I be making tiktok wrap-ups instead? In August, I started and I just didn't stop...
June Wrap Up | 5 Books
EXCELLENT books in July, and some that I'll remember for a long, long time...
Book Review | The Shadow of the Gods
I am so excited about this new fantasy world from John Gwynne. It is everything comforting and familiar and yet somehow so hard to achieve that we look for in fantasy. And the audiobook performance is stunning.
Book Review | Inferno
A quick review for a quick read. With a fantastic, high stakes, fun plot, this book manages to wrap us in the cozy ambiance of Italian art and architecture while also being an adventure worthy of the 2016 film of the same name.
June Wrap Up | 5 Books
I had a lot of fun reading in June! This month I read in spurts--Inferno in a day, It Ends With Us in three--and generally, I was plugging through the new Yanagihara in the meantime. Check out the full slate...
To Paradise (vs. A Little Life)
In To Paradise, Yanagihara has invented a newer, subtler way to torture her readers and her characters: loneliness, helplessness, and self-delusion. All afflictions that more easily land close to home than the operatic suffering of A Little Life.
The Farseer Trilogy | Series Review
What a tragedy to be finished with this trilogy, and to have finished my first journey through this world.
May Wrap Up | 4 Books and Many Updates
So many updates. I'm reading 3 books at once. I read an amazing book of POETRY, believe it or not. I cried. A great month!

It's my reading slump era! Come commiserate...
