Hello! July consisted of me finishing a short story for an anthology submission and now working to study for a CPCU test (day job stuff!) My test is August 9th, so the week of the 12th I should be back with all sorts of book updates!

Five petals, perfectly formed, like they were made just for use. One petal for the grace year girls, one petal for the wives, one for the laborers, one for the women of the outskirts, and one for her. I am so excited to talk about one of my most anticipated books of 2019! This one…

“Never be ashamed to be a woman,” and I wasn’t. Not now. Or ever. There was a day I sat browsing through Netgalley, and I ended up requesting an absurd amount of cozy mystery galleys. A shot of Murder is the last in that group that I could actually read (one I couldn’t….always make sure…

How do you like your dukes? Grumpy? Tortured? Alpha, beta, or alpha in the streets, beta in the sheets? I recently started the Reluctant Royals series, because of my podcast’s book challenge list. Stephanie and I chose the first book as our romance book, and because we loved it so much, we read the first…

Kill your darlings, kill your darlings, even when it breaks your egocentric little scribbler’s heart, kill your darlings. Everyone and their mother (and my mother!) has read this book, so this review will be quick I promise. I am just glad I finally took the time to read it! On Writing: A Memoir of the…

I’m forever observing, trying to learn how to be an adult human being by watching others, and I’m constantly in awe of how easy some people make it look. In continuing with my new love of “love stories at conventions,” as well as pride reads for June, I picked up a copy of Queens of…

Top Ten Tuesday was started by The Broke and the Bookish, and was taken over by That Artsy Reader Girl in 2018. This week’s Top Ten Tuesday is Childhood Classics. Great topic, and kind of lining perfectly with a list I’ve been mulling over for a few weeks now: Who are my literary heroines? Since…

It’s that time of the month! The time of the month where I scratch my head at how I read so many flipping books over the last 30ish days. And weep at how little I wrote. I missed May due to Bookcon (conventions wear me out), but here is June! Books Read: Advance Copies Here…

Let them start their dreadful wars, let destruction rain down, and let plague sweep through, but I will still be here, doing my work, holding humankind together with love like this. I honestly do not remember how I came across this book. I think it was Book Riot’s All the Books, discussing it when it…

This isn’t a love story, but the end of one. Thank you to Beau North and Netgalley for an advance copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. I didn’t know how much I needed this book until I was already into it, and I would easily recommend it to anyone who loves…
