  • Book Review: The Red Queen

    First of all, congrats to Victoria Aveyard for winning the Goodread’s Debut Author Award for 2015! I ended up voting for the book while reading it, because it was definitely a good one. It’s another YA dystopian series, which I think means I’m done with them for at least a month or two. (Got to…

  • Podcast Worth a Listen

    So I love podcast, in case you didn’t know. They get me through my day, and occasionally my subway rides if I don’t feel like reading (in other words, typically my morning rides). I can’t remember what my first podcast was, but I know which one I fell in love with first: We’re Alive. I’ve…

  • Book Review: Landline

    Catching up on reviews! After this I’ll only be one behind-slash-right on track. After the last review/ramble, I decided to change up my format a little, as well as adding a festive moose for the Christmas season. It’s always a work in process of course. I’m super debating reading a ton of Christmas chick-lit during…

  • Book Review: Linked

    So I can’t post about how I’m behind on my book reviews and not actually post a book review. This one will be short. I read the first book in the Cage of Lies series this month — Chained — and found it to be a quick and interesting read. I was happy to find that the second…

  • A Salinger Character Moment

    Despite its thin walls and lack of air conditioner, I love my new apartment. I good portion of it is still in boxes (most of my bedroom and half my kitchen?) but I can sit in my living room and pretend that the rest of the place is unpacked. And getting rid of a car…

  • Book Review: Vicious

    Today is just a quick update / review today, as all my boxes and stuff have finally come in. I’ve gotten to the point where I’m not climbing over boxes all day, and everything is starting to look normal. But I did read two (or three? subway rides are blending!!) books this past week, so…
