It’s Monday, What Are You Reading? (Nov. 15)

Read: Blameless by Gail Carriger — Very Funny! Reading: Touched by an Alien by Gini Koch – I started this one while stuck in the ER today.  I’m only a few pages in, but so far it is really cute. Acquired: Start! The Bible for New Believers (NKJV) ed. Greg Laurie — This is a [...]

It’s Monday, What Are You Reading? (Aug. 30th)

Read: It’s a Book by Lane Smith. Check out my review here. I also finished Cowgirl Rising: The Art of Donna Howell-Sickles by Peg Streep. This is an awesome art book. Donna Howell-Sickles images are of striking women full of confidence and a goddess like aura. According to the text she mixes Native American and [...]

What I’m Reading this Week (May 24th)

Read: Changeless by Gail Carriger (my review is here.) Major Pettigrew’s Last Stand by Helen Simonson — I don’t have much to say about this one. I was drawn to it by the cover, and it meandered pleasantly along. Don’t go into it expecting it to “pick-up,” because it isn’t that kind of book really. [...]

Changeless by Gail Carriger

Changeless by Gail Carriger I liked Changeless. Like its predecessor, Soulless, this book made me laugh out loud while sitting in occupied rooms forcing me to explain and therefore spread the hilarity to others. I have only to mention the words “squash blossom” to certain people to hear much merriment. I enjoyed the adventure that [...]

What I’m Reading This Week (May 17th)

This blog post is part of Shelia at Book Journey’s weekly round-up. Read: Not All Princesses Dress in Pink by Jane Yolen and Heidi Stemple — this was a cute picture book I found on the library shelf. I really like how it showed girls doing all manner of activity from sports to construction. The [...]

What I’m Reading This Week

A weekly what are you reading recap is going around the web and I thought this would be a good chance to remind myself of what books I’m reading and maybe prioritize? Seven-Tenths: Love, Piracy, and Science at Sea by David Fisichella – the back cover copy sold me on this the moment I read [...]

Avalon Revisited

Avalon Revisited by O. M. Grey Avalon Revisited is a delightful farce! The whole time I was reading it, I couldn’t help but share bits with whomever was with in earshot. The only fault I could find in this preposterous comedy was that of a zipper, and I’m not even sure you could call it [...]

Soulless

Soulless by Gail Carriger This book was really funny. You will be laughing in the first couple of pages. I loved it. It has been awhile since I’ve read a werewolf or vampire novel that I’ve like, because they all seemed to be running together. This one was refreshing. With a Victorian setting,  great banter, [...]
