Women Unbound Reading Challenge

Hello blog!
I haven’t seen you for awhile and I couldn’t  remember your password when I showed up this morning to see how you have been. It’s a good thing that I take care of my daughters better than I have taken care of you over the past year or so. You’re always [...]

Call Me Alyce

So this past weekend was my first time participating in Dewey’s Read-a-Thon.    I have to be honest and let you all know that I mocked it relentlessly.  C’mon REALLY???   Reading for 24 hours straight with a bunch of people you don’t know or even communicate with is pretty darn ridiculous.  Ridiculously wonderful.

The After Party

Here is a quote for those of us who might not have gotten as deep into our To Be Read Pile as we had hoped during Dewey’s Read-A-Thon.

Now I just need to stop TALKING about reading and [...]

7:00 am
As usual I was up at 5:30 am this morning.  The not so usual part was that I am a tad bit hungover.  Vodka is such an evil drink.   It’s so sneaky and by the time you realize what it’s doing to you you’re too far gone to do anything about it.  I’m up.  [...]

Read-A-Thon (Say What?)

Okay,  I broke down and signed up to participate in this coming weekend’s Dewey’s Read-a-Thon.
Despite the fact that I have plans for a few hours in the afternoon it’s the PERFECT weekend since the girls will be with their Dad and I’ll have a quiet house to myself.  I’ll do what I can and see [...]

The Picture of Dorian Gray

I really suck at writing reviews of books.     Amazon  has  better reviews than I could  write.   Not to mention the countless number of book blogs that are out there.
(I’m a HUGE fan of book blogs.)  And I don’t consider mine one so it’s not for that reason that I’m particularly fond of the genre.
I [...]
