It's the end of another year, and that means it's time to do all my bookish end of the year posts! Yay! I don't do a lot of posts about book covers anymore, but I do so love a pretty cover. Good artwork and/or good, cohesive design *chef's kiss* So anyway, here are all my favorite covers from the books I read in 2020! *I did my best to find cover artists, but I just couldn't find the info for...

I played more games this year than I ever have before, which is surprising considering the head nerve problem I developed last year that gives me headaches to look at electronic screens. But many of these games were entirely or...

We did it! We voted Trump out! I know I'm a little late with that celebration, but I couldn't not share my excitement. It's just such a relief to know we won't be subjected to the catastrophe that four more years of him would've been. In other, less significant news (but still significant to me)... I cut my hair! (Literally cut it myself!) And I'm excited about it! It's a big deal for me since...
