Ten Book Recommendations for Bibliophiles
I work in a bookstore, so it's pretty safe to say that I love books. I'm not obsessed with books like some people I have met, but I do really love a great book... especially when it's a book about books. I think that anyone who really loves books gets a bit of a thrill from when reading about other bibliophiles.
Ten Of The Most Unique Books I’ve Read
I pride myself on being someone who reads books that not everyone else has read. I love being able to share my unique finds with customers and friends.

Review: ‘Heartless’ by Marissa Meyer

I did manage to celebrate my 7th wedding anniversary with... Continue Reading →
Review: ‘The Invisible Library’ by Genevieve Cogman
You all know my weakness for books about books, so it should come as no surprise that I had to read The Invisible Library. I wrote about it in a Wishlist Wednesday not long ago, and actually preordered it just to make sure I had it on hand the moment it was released. Synopsis: Irene... Continue Reading →
Review: ‘Red Queen’ by Victoria Aveyard
Since the June OwlCrate theme is 'royalty', and it was hinted that some of the content might be related to Red Queen and The Lunar Chronicles, I figured I should at least read one of the books that was mentioned. Red Queen has been promoted a lot lately in my store, so I figured I... Continue Reading →
