Hey hey, my tender chicken dumplings. Did you know it’s possible for a (generally) sane, (relatively) even-tempered, (ostensibly) rational adult, human woman to have a nervous breakdown over 3 yards of tulle? IT’S TRUE, don’t ask me how I know. As you can see, I’m on a reading and blogging roll, thanks to the INDESCRIBABLE…

Greetings, internet-lings. Yes, I am back on the blogging bullshit, witness me, etc etc. Things are happening, and as always, I keep a tenuous grip on sanity by shoving as many words-units in front of my eyeballs as possible. And aside from the usual personal woes and worries, we’re in the middle of a weeding…

Zd… zdrast… zdravstvuyte (yeah I googled it), comrades. How goes it? I myself am scrambling to assemble the most gratuitously purple wedding since Barney married Mrs Barney, and to put it lightly, I am 👏 losing 👏 my 👏 motherfucking 👏 mind 👏 ANYWAY LET’S TALK ABOUT THE BOOK BEFORE I CRY AGAIN. Today I’m reviewing a book that’s…

Hey hey heyyyyyy. Yes, it’s me, the queen of sporadic book-blogging, how goes it? I myself currently hate everything and everyone (except you, dear reader, of course). Feeling very The-Second-Coming-y if you know what I mean. MOVING ON. Today I bless your eyeballs and brainballs with some Quality Content: another entry in the Nonfiction Benediction…

Before I say anything else, let me say that I have an intense interest in Russian history, and in particular, the last Romanov tsar and his family. I’m also a fantasy nerd, so I was delighted to get a copy of Nadine Brandes’ fantasy interpretation of their final days, and excited for a historical fantasy…

¡Hola chiocs! Sup. Today I’m playing #saturdaylibrarian and frankly I’ve had enough goddamn weeding for the day, there’s only so much getting rid of books a girl can handle. Usually this would be the point where I start wedding planning to pass the time, but, miracle of all miracles, we may actually be back on…

Hey hey, my adorable internet friends/acquaintances/strangers/enemies. Been a hot minute. See my previous post for a cryptic explanation. (Spoiler I refuse to review books, which is normally a thing I love doing, if having to review books is a thing I HAVE to do, I don’t know why, I AM AN ONION, I am LAYERED.)…

A thing I have learned about myself: I will not do a thing I feel compelled to do, even if it is a thing I enjoy. In other news, probably blacklisted by NetGalley lol ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This is a horror novel unlike anything I’ve ever read. From the very first sentence, the eerie, creepy vibes will have you turning pages to find out what happens next. An intriguing premise and highly readable prose make this a book you’ll remember. Following ex-rocker Jesse from a one-night reunion with his old band into…

Seventeen days into this year and I’ve already checked if mercury is retrograde like thirty times, so that should give you some idea of where I’m at. Things fall apart, friendos, and in this wise words of the Talking Heads, well how did I get here??? The only thing going right so far, touch wood,…
