Writer, Reviewer, Book Lover
We are starting a new year, and I'm actually pretty happy about it. 2021 wasn't a very successful year for reading, so I'm hoping/working at reading a lot more this year. That won't necessarily translate into a lot of books, but time spent reading since there are a lot of larger books on my tbr... Continue Reading →
2020 saw us adapting to quarantines and working/learning from home. 2021 definitely brought some good changes, but it also saw me attached to my phone more and reading less. I also picked up art again and began to work it into my already busy schedule, so my reading for sure took a bit of a... Continue Reading →
This Lowdown post concept actually came from a post I saw on the epic reads Facebook group I've been a part of.

In the beginning I thought I had it all under control, but slowly it's become distracted reading instead of the crazed reading I've known in the past. While I'm working on digging into...

One of the big ideas I had for the Lowdown posts from the beginning was the question of which kind of reviews are better. We've all seen the big mix of reviews out there and how vastly they differ from each other. There's the rant style where someone is tearing apart the author, the book,... Continue Reading →
I can't believe how fast this year has gone by. Or that we are about to embark on another! While 2020 feels like it snuck up on us, 2019 was a really good year for reading (even if December ended up keeping me from really reading), making this post feel good instead of like ratting...
