Hello Internet! This site has been pretty quiet in 2018. I've been unbelievably busy with school, a second job, and choreographic gigs on top of all that. There are many many things I would love to write about, but time conspires against us all, and here we are at the turn of the calendar. If [...]

A Reading Re-cap: 2017
Hi Internet! It's that time of year again. I'm pleased to report that even with moving, traveling, and starting school again, I still managed to read 53 books in 2017. Not as many as last year, but given the chaos my life has been through in the last 12 months I am not in the [...]
Books I’ve Enjoyed this Spring
Hi Internet! It's been a while since we talked books. I've read a fair number thus far in 2017--the count is up to 21. Unfortunately a lot of them haven't been the greatest, so rather than whine, I'd much rather just tell you about my favorite books so far this year. Tally ho! EVERYTHING I [...]
Bookish Academy Awards
Hi Internet! So I know I'm a bit behind the times, but last night I watched Regan of PeruseProject's Bookish Academy Awards BookTube video, and I knew I wanted to get in on the fun. Here's the premise: Take the books you read in 2016, and pick 'award winners' based on the Oscar categories. Best [...]
Just Books, I Swear
Well. Yeah. So. It's been a month, hasn't it? I have been ridiculously busy, more so than my usual due to some exciting developments from a plan I set in motion 6+ months ago. I know that's irritatingly vague, but I really can't say anything conclusive yet. I promise I will update everyone soon. So, [...]
A Reading Re-Cap: 2016
Hi Internet! Welcome to a new year. So I read A LOT in 2016. After coming so close in 2015 to the 50-book mark, I really buckled down and read every spare moment I got. I carried books with me constantly. I figured out how to use the public library e-book portal. And, for my [...]
October Reads…a Lot
My fervor for blogging has diminished of late, as my writing-energy has been focused on grad school applications. But not, it would seem, my desire for reading, as this month I have blown past my 50-book goal for the year, with no sign of slowing down. I am currently reading another book not listed here, [...]
September Reading Frenzy!
Hi internet--let's talk books. This month has been a watershed month in terms of reading quantity. After a much-needed vacation, I discovered how to get e-books from our library, and so now I've read everything I could get my hands and eyeballs on. Also B&N had a sale on SFF, so. You know. CHILDREN OF [...]
August Books
Well, I'm back. Hi internet! I have returned from gallivanting across Iceland, the Netherlands, and Belgium. My brain has returned to the correct time-zone, but I'm still not sure what day it is. I intend to write at least two posts on our travels, but first thing's first--a book round-up. After my slack-off in July, [...]
July Books
Like most things in the month, my reading in July took a bit of a dip. I read three books. To be fair, they were all rather dense and not fast reads, sooooooooo. Excuses excuses. Vagina: A New Biography, Naomi Wolf I picked this one up on YouTube recommendation. It is a non-fiction exploration of [...]
