The Books This week we are starting out with 157 books on the Want to Read shelf… let’s see how many I’ll be removing. I’ll be honest, I was hyped for this book, but when I ended up being declined for it on NetGalley and I had to wait for it to come out, I […]
The first lines are… A few years back I was running out of money so I volunteered for a research study at the University of Pennsylvania. The directions brought me to the campus medical center in West Philly and a large auditorium filled with women, all between eighteen and thirty-five years old. There weren’t enough […]

What I’m Currently Reading My hold for this came up at the library, so I decided I should probably read it since there are people behind me in line for it. Yep, still working on it… What I’ve Recently Finished I haven’t finished anything this week. :/ What I’ll Read Next Of course I’ll start […]

This is a later 90s track, but one of my favorites. It’s also the one that got me into Godsmack after a friend of mine said it was her favorite song by them. I’ve seen them 3 times in concert, possibly 4, and they always put on a great show. Here’s Voodoo. Lyrics I’m not […]
Feedback Ratio So this week my feedback ratio is 44% which is definitely down from the last time I looked at it. But part of that is because I’d gotten another new book that was sent to me for a blog tour. What I’ve Finished Lately Nothing… again… I have been reading one of the […]
The Books This week I started with 159 books (I added a couple from last week). Let’s see how many books I can remove from my shelf this week. I picked this one up in the Apple Books app because it was free. I started it but I wasn’t overly impressed with it and never […]

In these current economic times, things are tough. Those who want to read face a conundrum at times – do we buy books or do we spend our money on true necessities? So what do you do if you want new books to read but don’t have the money to purchase books? First, don’t pirate […]
Now I’ve never claimed to only like rock/metal music. I do like some pop/hip-hop/r&b/rap music as well. They may not be my absolute favorites, but I do enjoy them all the same. This one was a song my friends and I used to sing/rap with all the time – and yes, we knew what they […]
