Just realized this post did not go through last week! My apologies. Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature from The Broke and the Bookish. This is an awesome topic because, speaking as an American, so much of the content we consume is U.S.A. centric, and features mainly white, male characters. So this is a…

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature from the book lovers over at The Broke and the Bookish. So I sort of struggled with today’s topic, which was 10 books that you’ve changed your opinion about over time. I have to be honest, my opinion of books doesn’t usually change all that much. In fact,…

My mom has wanted to read this series for ages, so when Hanukkah rolled around, we knew exactly what to get her. She’s since read the next one in the series and purchased (and watched) the first season of the Starz series. She loaned me this book, quite certain I’d be hooked, and, as usual,…
