We’re not even half way through 2018 and I am pretty confident I’ve found my favorite novel of the year. Yesterday I finished An American Marriage by Tayari Jones, which was published on February 6th. I immediately needed to shout from the rooftops (aka social […]
April was a big month for my DNF list. Just like last month, I read a bunch of books that were solidly meh, and I had a hard time getting into most of them. I’m not sure if that’s the books, or me having a lot […]

Whenever I’m in a setting where people browsing books, I become a super curious, over friendly creeper: “Oh hey, whatcha got there? Ooohhh that’s a good one, you should definitely get it! If you like that author, you’ll love this other one…” This usually happens […]
