Disclaimer: this post was written this summer, but I am just now getting around to posting it. Okay. Go ahead. This is kind of a new thing for me. I’ve tried to listen to audio books before, but I could never get into them. Recently, however, I’ve been having trouble with headaches, and I can’t […]
So you may remember earlier this year I started a challenge to help me finish some of my half read series that have been languishing on my shelves. Annnnnndddd? I completely failed. Like I probably read maybe 5 of the books on that list? Actually that’s generous. I did finish the A Darker Shade […]

After the Book Beau debacle I was a little wary about book sleeve companies. Understandably, I was a bit loathe to spend any money with on. But my lovely co-blogger swore by AU Alternate Universe and proposed getting me one of their sleeves as an early Christmas present. The moment I saw this Legend […]
Erin’s Review I am so mixed on this one right now. Flick the Wick has some beautiful products. First of all, the labels are beyond gorgeous and when I ordered for the first time I was so stoked. I’d heard so many good things, seen so many beautiful pictures, drooled over the website for […]
When I get a new book there are a few things I do first. Admire the cover, stroke the spine, smell the fresh cut paper. But there’s something I enjoy much more than that, and I don’t get to do it with every book. I love nothing more than to open a new fantasy […]
