Lucky for me, a Book… Continue reading The Book That Got Me Out of a Reading Slump
I’m sure I’m starting to sound like a broken record at this point, but I can’t say enough how much I love the Veronica Speedwell series! Historical mysteries are my go-to reads, especially Victorian mysteries, and most especially when Veronica Speedwell is the heroine. The series, which should be read in order, starts with A… Continue reading A Treacherous Curse (Veronica Speedwell #3)

I mean the pointy hat, crazy hair, spell book type of witches, and the sort of magic that involves flying brooms, love spells,… Continue reading Five Witchy Reads

There’s something about August. Our bookish friend darsaster said it best… August is the Sunday of summer. It’s the end of the once much-anticipated bright summery days and beach-y vacations. The time to finish that never-ending summer reading list. The last chance to depart on a few more armchair travel adventures to exotic, faraway locales (side… Continue reading Late Summer Magic: 7 Reads to Enjoy Before Fall

I am 100% the worst flier (flyer?) air-traveler in the world. I do it when I have to, but I’m a nightmare of a travel companion.
