Unpopular Opinions Book Tag: Take 2
It’s my two-year blogiversary! It’s hard to believe I’ve been running this blog for two whole years. Where has the time gone? To celebrate this momentous occasion, I thought I’d take another swing at the first post I ever wrote— the Unpopular Opinions Book Tag. That’s right, I started my blog by potentially immediately alienating [...]
Second Chances: Why We Give Authors Another Try
Have you ever read a book by an author and disliked it, but considered giving another book of theirs a try? How do you decide whether or not it’s a chance worth taking? What pushes you to give that author a second chance? I’m no stranger to this phenomenon, so this is something I’ve been [...]

August 2017 Wrap-Up

This month I finished eight books and three graphic novels, adding up to a grand total of eleven things read this month. [...]
My Top Five Most Disappointing Books of 2016
I love to complain and critique, so honestly this list was coming. We all really should’ve known. I’ve been let down by several books this year, but, boy, were these ones stinkers. I tried to hold this list to the same qualifications as my Top 5 Books of 2016 list, but I tend to DNF [...]
