The Pains of Catching Up

Returning to book blogging is hard work! There are so many tiny little tasks that need to be accomplished - updating a neglected Goodreads account, remembering the rhythm of memes, remembering how to even use wordpress, reconnecting with old friends with my tail between my legs, etc. It's a reminder of how much work I put...

Library Checkout: July 2018

Thanks to Laila at Big Reading Life, I just learned about the coolest monthly meme: Library Checkout! There's no linkup this month, but the idea is for people to share what they've gotten from the library over the last few weeks. I love my public library - even if I mostly use their digital services... Continue Reading →
