Hello and happy Saturday. I think I’ve told you that I plan my posts in advance, and what I mean is I plan the title of my posts and pretty much nothing else, at least generally that’s what I do. Well, this morning I’m confused because the note in my planner is “Everand Free Trial…

My Bookish Notebook
Hello and happy Saturday. I’m officially on Easter vacation and naturally, now that my mind and body feel like they can rest, I want to be productive and do things I can’t while I’m at work. This is why I’m blogging at 8:15am. I will take a break, but you won’t notice because it’ll happen…

My Thoughts on Kissing in America
Hello and happy Sunday. It’s noon here and I’m getting done with life admin stuff so that I can read all afternoon long. Before that, though, I want to tell you about a book that I finished a few weeks ago but I’m still thinking about and even though it’s ten years old, I think…

My 2025 TBR List According to My Reading Challenges
Hello and happy Saturday. I just came home from work and I have another class to teach in a little bit, which means that at 4pm I’ll probably crash. Before that, though, I wanted to write this fun post, which is by no means a reference for my reading, but it can give me an…

DNF: Tis the Damn Season
Hello and happy Sunday. I’ve gotten pretty used to DNFing books early on, and I mean within the first chapter. This is what happened with Tis the Damn Season by Kimi Freeman. I honestly can’t tell you what it was about besides it clearly being a contemporary romance novel. The female main character was insufferable…

I’m so glad February passed by as quickly as it did because I’d been looking forward to yesterday and it turned out to be sort of a disappointment. Can you guess what else was a disappointment?
