This will be my last post of 2022, so that means it is time to look back on what I've read this year and start setting my reading goals for next year. Not surprisingly, 2022 was definitely a year of children's books for me. Sandra Boynton is currently my niece's favorite author, partly because of … Continue reading 2023: A Reading Preview
It's been a minute since my last post, hasn't it? No, I was not taken, I did not join witness protection, nor did I go into early hibernation (though that last one sounds tempting). My computer simply decided this fall was a good time for a prolonged swan song. I took it in for a … Continue reading Odds & Ends ???-12/11

My thoughts on where things might go after the penultimate season!
My thoughts on the MCU/Disney+ series
Well, the productivity over the past two weeks has come in spurts, but at least it's there. I've made some headway in my editing, flying through the first few chapters, and I'm currently wading through a section where I suspect I'm going to have to kill one of my darlings, but I'm still trying to solve which … Continue reading Odds & Ends 5/9-5/22
Review of Lore by Alexandra Bracken
