Hey all, Dani here. Continuing on with my celebration of National Library Week, my bonus post today is a review of a book that I had heard a lot about over the past several years, and I finally got around to reading it myself. I read it in one short sitting and one slightly longer… Continue reading Review: Mr Penumbra’s 24 Hour Bookstore by Robin Sloan

Hey all, Dani here. I'm celebrating libraries, books, and bookstores all week on the blog, and with that comes a little bit of bonus content.

Manga Review: Magus of the Library, Volume 3
Hey all, Dani here. What do you do when it's National Library Week and it's also Manga Monday? You review a volume of manga about a library. Yes! It just so happened to work out that I needed to review the third volume of this series, so I shifted around my schedule a tiny bit… Continue reading Manga Review: Magus of the Library, Volume 3
National Library Week 2020
Hey all, Dani here. It is National Library Week, which means it is time to celebrate all the libraries and librarians out there for all the great services they provide. And yes, we should be celebrating these people and places year round--obviously most of us book lovers do--but this is a special week hosted by… Continue reading National Library Week 2020
Recommendations: Books About Books
Hey all, Dani here. Obviously, with National Library Week running from April 19-25, I am in the mood to talk about books and libraries and bookstores...and so that translates into wanting to talk about books that are written about books, or about libraries, or about bookstores. So for today's recommendations posts, I want to toss… Continue reading Recommendations: Books About Books

Obviously we all know that there is so much going on in the world right now, so I don't really need to get into that aspect of today's post, but now more than ever is the time to support artists, support writers, support bloggers, support vloggers, support indie bookstores, support big… Continue reading Discussion: Supporting the Book Community
Weekly Wrap-Up (59)
Hey all, Dani here. So...I got all of two hours of sleep Sunday night so I ended up using a personal day from work on Monday. But I got a lot of stuff done around the house while Damian was at work, so I guess it was still a productive day overall. And then yesterday… Continue reading Weekly Wrap-Up (59)
Calendar Girls: April 2020
Hey all, Dani here. Welcome back to another very early post for me. Same as with last month, this post is going live while I'm deep asleep, but I want to make sure that all of the participants in Calendar Girls can link to my post as soon as possible, so why not have this… Continue reading Calendar Girls: April 2020
March Wrap-Up and April TBRs/Weekly Wrap-Up (58)
Hey all, Dani here. Okay, this might end up being a slightly longer post, because I'm combining my usual weekly wrap-up with my monthly wrap-up. Otherwise I would just end up having two posts that have a 50% overlap and that seemed silly to me. Anyway. Wow, we made it through March and we have… Continue reading March Wrap-Up and April TBRs/Weekly Wrap-Up (58)
Manga Review: Magus of the Library, Volume 2
Hey all, Dani here. My workplace is still up and running, but they have taken a number of precautions, such as shutting down our water fountains and ice machines, and restricting the available options in the cafeteria. They are also promoting hand-washing and keeping a safe distance while on breaks and such. But for now… Continue reading Manga Review: Magus of the Library, Volume 2
