So, bonus points if you get the song reference. Anyway, I let my ADHD have its way with me and got pulled away on my own brand of chaos again. But I am back, and I hope you still love me. I did my spooky theme in September, just like I promised, reading a total…

Cannibalism:nounthe practice of eating the flesh of one’s own species. I love horror. I have always been a fan of scary movies, haunted houses, ghost tours, and true crime. So when my friend Heidi asked me why I had never read horror, I didn’t have an answer. It had just never occurred to me. She…

I won’t lie; I am already two books into spooky season and need more. What do you mean it’s not spooky season yet? There are leaves on the ground, and all the coffee shops are selling pumpkin spice, so it must be spooky season. And as it is spooky season, I am here for the scare! This…

So, it is time for my August wrap-up for the vibe Worth the Hype. I have decided to try to change my reading habits a little bit. I HATE writing in books. I have tried annotating so many times, but my heart just can’t. So, I am going to try to use sticky notes or…

“Hope this doesn’t end up as TMI and we can still be friends.” This is a statement I made to my friend Donovan after explaining why I enjoy vampire romance. It is a repeated theme for me in a lot of our romance oriented conversations. Especially when we are discussing dark romance. This is a…

It’s been a week since August started, and I dove into my monthly vibe, Worth the Hype. In that week, I have finished two books and am partway into a third one. So far, I have read Corrupt by Penelope Douglas and Icebreaker by Hannah Grace. They are two very different books, and I have had two very different reading experiences with them.…

We have all seen them, the #booktok books, and wondered: What’s all the hype about? I won’t lie; the hype snags me from time to time, and I have found that I rarely agree with the masses on what is good fiction. That doesn’t mean I hate these books; I just don’t care for them.…

I want to start by apologizing for my unexpected hiatus. But sometimes, life likes to throw us curveballs, and I was not prepared for them. These curveballs led to some of the most intense and unpleasant decisions I’ve had to make in a long time. When this is published, I will have left my husband,…

Is it really April already? Could time slow down, just for a moment? No? Oh, well, I guess that is fair. March was tame compared to February, with its attempts to murder me via the flu. No horrid illnesses to speak of. But I did start a new job, so I have been busy. Even…

February tried to kill me. It viciously attacked me with a case of the flu. I have never had the flu before, and I thoroughly hope to never have it again. No, really, never again. I couldn’t walk, eat, or breathe without severe pain. I felt like death warmed over for more than a week.…
