21 SFF Backlist Titles to Read in 2021

The Liebster Award

I was nominated for The Liebster Award by Virginia @ The Sassy Library Fox way back in um, April, and I haven't posted my reply because I am literally three raccoons stuffed into a trench coat trying to pass as human. Sorry, Virginia. I did not forget you! RULES Acknowledge the blog that gave it … Continue reading The Liebster Award →

July 2020 TBR

It's July, *saddest wooooo noise ever* Normally I'd be thrilled, but July in this state is hot as fuck, the beaches are crowded with coronavirus-infested tourists, Black people are still being murdered by the police and work sucks ass right now. So, let's talk about the books I'm excited for this month. It's mostly SFF, … Continue reading July 2020 TBR →

June 2020 Wrap-Up

2020 is halfway over. If you're in the U.S. and over 18, check that you're registered to vote. Then double check.

Mid-Year Freakout Tag 2020

graphic from Shanah the Bionic Book Worm I did this last year, and had such a blast that I'm doing it again! Of course, the first half of 2019 and 2020 were both awful, but in their own unique ways.

Top Ten Tuesday: Reasons I Love Science Fiction!

Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.

April 2020 Wrap-Up

April is over already! It felt like it both dragged and flew by, which is um, conflicting? Anywho, while I was stressed, I didn't have a heavy stress knot sitting on top of my chest for the entirety of the month like I did back in March, so that's progress? It helped that we had … Continue reading April 2020 Wrap-Up →

While my library has closed to the public, we are still required to come in to work and we're offering curbside pickup … Continue reading April 2020 TBR →
