Hey all, Dani here. As this post goes live I will have taken a pause in my reading for Dewey's 24 Hour Readathon to host a session of Dungeons & Dragons. For once my boyfriend is getting to play, because I'm the Dungeon Master this time around. If everything goes well, we won't run the… Continue reading Comic Mini Reviews: Monstress Vol 1 and Vox Machina Origins #2

End of a Journey: Vox Machina
Hey all, Dani here. My post today is somewhat related to books, but mostly pertains to storytelling and creativity. Stories have an impact on all of us. This is something we know as readers. We connect with these tales and these characters, and for the stories that impact us the most, it all feels completely… Continue reading End of a Journey: Vox Machina
Recommendations: Paranormal
Hey all, Dani here. Okay, so today's recommendations post was actually difficult with the parameters I set for myself with this series of posts. I wanted to keep it narrowed down to books I've read since I started this blog in January 2016. Paranormal turned out to be the genre where I had to break… Continue reading Recommendations: Paranormal
Ten Times TBR Purge
Hey all, Dani here. Okay, yes, I should have had this posted a couple hours ago. I wish I could say that I have an amazing excuse, but the truth is that I got distracted with prep work for the Dungeons & Dragons session I'll be running this weekend. Writing down events and details for… Continue reading Ten Times TBR Purge
Review: A Plague of Giants by Kevin Hearne
Hey all, Dani here. And today is a wonderful Happy Book Birthday to author Kevin Hearne for his first epic fantasy novel. I've talked about Hearne before, mostly gushing about his Iron Druid Chronicles books. I would like to reread the first three books and then continue on with the series, so I'll probably have… Continue reading Review: A Plague of Giants by Kevin Hearne
The End of the Year Book Tag
Hey all, Dani here. I have a whole section in my blogging notebook with book tags I have either been tagged in or that I just decided I wanted to do, but just haven't had the time to get them all answered and posted. I suppose that's why today's tag is one that I actually… Continue reading The End of the Year Book Tag
Dewey’s 24 Hour Readathon TBR
Hey all, Dani here. This will be my fourth time participating in Dewey's 24 Hour Readathon. I didn't do that well back in April during the last session because where I work declared a mandatory work day for the day of the readathon. Well guess what folks? They did it again. Yep, I'm scheduled to… Continue reading Dewey’s 24 Hour Readathon TBR
Are You Ready for NaNoWriMo?
Hey all, Dani here. National Novel Writing Month is right around the corner, and boy have I missed it. Honestly, aside from these blog posts, I have not done much writing lately, and I certainly have not done a whole lot of creative writing. And I really miss it. I've told myself that I need… Continue reading Are You Ready for NaNoWriMo?
Fantasy Recommendations
Hey all, Dani here. The last two weeks I have posted up recommendations posts, first for Banned Books and then for LGBTQIAP+. Today I'm back to recommend some of my favorite fantasy reads (of the past couple years). In the future I might have to do a fantasy recommendations post where I talk about some… Continue reading Fantasy Recommendations
Purging that TBR Pile #9
Hey all, Dani here. There is an end in sight with these purge posts. Okay, so maybe only in sight for people who can see long distances away. I took a couple hours to sort through what remained of my Goodreads to-read list and marked which ones to keep and which ones to delete. And… Continue reading Purging that TBR Pile #9
