Good morning, everyone! After all the snow and the ridiculously cold temperatures last week, it was really nice to have some slightly warmer weather this week. Forty degrees may not seem all that warm, but it's a big improvement over temperatures in the teens and single digits. Our snow hasn't completely melted yet, but most… Continue reading POPSUGAR Reading Challenge 2021 Update: Week Nine

Good morning, everyone! I hope that you are having a wonderful weekend so far, and that you are continuing to stay healthy and warm.

The Night Weaver
As I mentioned in one of my earlier posts this week, I spent most of the weekend curled up on the couch with a blanket and several good books. While it's always nice to spend the weekend reading, it's even better when you manage to discover a new author that you really enjoy. That's precisely… Continue reading The Night Weaver

Manga vs. Anime – Ghost Hunt
Toward the end of October, I had the opportunity to once again participate in the Dewey's 24 Hour Readathon. During the Readathon I chose to focus my attention on several comic books, manga, and graphic novels, which I have been reviewing over the past few weeks. The final series that I read during this time… Continue reading Manga vs. Anime – Ghost Hunt
Through the Woods
I woke up this morning to a rather cold, rainy day, and my first thought was that it was a perfect day to focus on spooky reads. With that thought in mind, I decided to spend the morning re-reading Emily Carroll's Through the Woods. I actually mentioned this book in a recent post as a… Continue reading Through the Woods
The Holmes-Dracula File
There's something very exciting about seeing an author tackle not just one, but two well-known intellectual properties...especially when the resulting novel is as fantastic as Fred Saberhagen's The Holmes-Dracula File. "It is with emotions doubly strange that I at last take up my pen to write the story involving the creature I have elsewhere referred… Continue reading The Holmes-Dracula File
City of Ghosts/Tunnel of Bones
Whether it's because of Halloween, or the somewhat gloomy aesthetic of early fall, the month of October is a perfect time for reading spooky books! So far this month, I've had the opportunity to enjoy two great spooky reads, City of Ghosts and Tunnel of Bones, by Victoria Schwab. "People think that ghosts only come… Continue reading City of Ghosts/Tunnel of Bones

I had the opportunity to read a lot of great books, and I've enjoyed sharing them with you during the past couple of weeks. If you missed out on any of… Continue reading Comic Book vs. Movie – Aliens vs. Predator

Good morning, everyone! I hope you are having a fantastic weekend so far! As many of you know, my mum had surgery on Thursday, June 11th, to remove a second brain tumor.
