I haven't posted one of these update posts since the 31st, so of course I have to say, it's a new year! And a new year has brought with it a new post title! Yep, I switched from "The Weekly Update" to "Life and Books" since these posts aren't weekly anymore. I'm trying out the new title, seeing how I like it. Anyway, I am having the most amazing start to my bookish year! (If only my real life...
Mitch is a reaper, which means he's going to be immortal and look the age of 24 for the next couple hundred years until his aging kicks back in, and he's vowed not to fall in love until then because he can't bear to watch men he loves grow old and die. But then Nate shows up in town with a soul attached to him, slips past Mitch's emotional defenses, and complicates...
I'm having a bookish problem. And the problem is that I feel like I rarely ever get to actually discuss specific books. See, I read a book, I review the book, I get some comments (mostly from people who haven't read the book), I read some other reviews on Goodreads, maybe I mention or recommend the book in other types of posts... and that's it. There's no actual discussion going on in there! And...
Having escaped the Underworld, Clio and Lyre's next step is to get to the Overworld in order to convince Bastion that the stolen KLOC spell is too dangerous to use. But first they'll have to find someone who can bring them to the Overworld, which won't be easy considering all the reapers and assassins after them, including...
Akasha has risen from her slumber thanks to Lestat's music, and now she's come for him so that he can stand beside her as she enacts her twisted plan to create world peace and become a god to the people. Meanwhile, the few remaining vampires gather to learn the story of the twins and to figure out what to...
Ok, so, I'm using the word "goals," but these aren't things I'm forcing myself to do out of some obligatory feeling; these are things I want to do, things that will make me happy if I do them. But I like to have these "goals" written down as a reminder since it's easy to be led astray by all the shinies out there! So, well, here they are...
Emerson and Calla have escaped, but they still have to figure out where the rest of their team has been taken and rescue them. But no mission ever goes as planned, the Guild is still attempting to hunt down all the remaining Griffin Gifted, Roarke is exposing magic to the human world, and Emerson's ability might be her best chance of saving everyone she cares...
I guess I'll state the obvious: It's the last day of 2017! I think we can all concur that this year in general has been a mess. And it seems lots of people have had individually bad years as well. It hasn't been my best year, but, honestly, none of the past few years have. So... that's why I want to use this post to talk about some of the positive things that I've done or that have happened to...
This post turned out to be fun when I did it last year, and people seemed to like it, so I figured I'd do it again! I mean, I kept track of the stats again, so why not put them to some use? And almost everyone likes graphs...
Yay, it's finally that time when I get to rave and fangirl about my favorite books of the year! Am I the only one who spends pretty much the entire year looking forward to this post? Anyway, as per usual, I made the graphic before the post, and, well, I have 11 instead of 10. (Well, technically I have 22 because of series.) But the more the merrier, right? Definitely. More books always = more...
