I get anxiety over the weirdest things. Obviously, if anxiety was something you could rationalize away with logic and reason, no one would have anxiety, so it makes sense that my anxiety is sparked with things other people would scoff at. Like when my Goodreads TBR has too many books on it (right now I'm … Continue reading Why I always lowball my annual Goodreads challenge

Top Ten Tuesday: Reasons I Love Reading
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. I've been a lifelong reader ever since I fell in … Continue reading Top Ten Tuesday: Reasons I Love Reading
November 2020 Wrap-Up
While I failed miserably at NaNoWriMo this year (don't do NaNo while your already stressful job is transitioning to a brand-new software system without a plan and during a nail-biting election), I still wrote a good chunk of this draft and I read a lot of books! Much of the reading came from a wondrous … Continue reading November 2020 Wrap-Up
One Year Blogiversary!
I can't believe it's been a year since I started this blog! Okay, technically I published the website in April and had a random post of "I'm here!" or something, but my first review was a year ago today. The Luminous Dead And this will be my 195th post, which is...quite a lot more than … Continue reading One Year Blogiversary!

April 2020 TBR
I hope you all are staying safe and well during this pandemic. It's weird, seeing all of the posts of people catching up on their reading because they're forced to stay at home. 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
March 2020 Wrap-Up
I think we're all on the same page here that 2020 is just...horrible. Right? So let's just leave it at that. I did a lot of stress reading but had no desire to do any of my reviews...which left me at a backlog of 16 reviews I needed to write at one point and two … Continue reading March 2020 Wrap-Up

March 2020 TBR
Welcome to...March Madness! Reading Edition. I've got an official 10 books on my TBR this month, but shhh, it's really 12-13, since there are a couple ARCs that I need to get through! Plus I'd made my TBR before I requested Docile, and then I thought I'd be able to finish it before March...and then … Continue reading March 2020 TBR
February 2020 Wrap Up
Welp, February was awful. Reading-wise, it was okay, but work-wise it was absolutely draining, frustrating, and busy as hell. I felt like I was in react mode the entire month, with no room to plan ahead or get ready for...much of anything. In short, it was ridiculous and I had little energy to do much … Continue reading February 2020 Wrap Up
