nevertheless, she persisted
Something weird happened. For once, they hype actually enticed me to read a book instead of making me want to read it less (or at least put it off until the hype died down). And despite the fact I already own two unread Marisha Pessl books, I decided to pick up Neverworld Wake because everyone has been […]
Read MoreHappy Sunday everyone! I hope you’re all having a good weekend so far. This week was a great reading week for me. I participated in (half of) Dewey’s 24-hour Readathon yesterday, and managed to finish six books this week. Which I still can’t believe. I’ll start with the non-readathon books.

Yesterday was so lovely and rainy and I actually got to wear a sweater (for like an hour with the ceiling fan on high), and now it’s over. This week is supposed […]
Read MoreLolita has been on my TBR for years, but I haven’t read it because I know it’s going to be a tough read. And, honestly, I questioned whether it was something I really wanted to read, or if I just put it on my TBR because it’s famous. But when I learned that such a controversial […]
