What am I reading?
This week I’m reading The Brothers Karamazov by Fyodor Dostoevsky. I have a feeling I’m going to be reading it for the rest of the week because, in case you aren’t aware, it’s a massive tome!! If I happen to finish this one any time soon, I plan on reading Moonstone by [...]

It’s Monday…What am I reading?
Book Review: La’s Orchestra Saves the World
La’s Orchestra Saves the World by Alexander McCall Smith
Normally I love McCall Smith, but this book was entirely different and not at all what I was expecting from him. Once I got past that I actually enjoyed the book, but you know how it is when you love everything an author does because of a [...]

Book Review: Artemis Fowl
Read for: Orbis Terrarum Challenge – Ireland
Artemis Fowl Series by Eoin Colfer, read by Nathaniel Parker.
The first five books of this series were read by Nathaniel Parker and I really enjoyed them. Parker did an excellent job reading these books. He did all different voice and accents for each character (even minor characters got their [...]
Book Review: City of Glass
City of Glass by Cassandra Clare
Read for: RIP IV Challenge
This is the third (and I believe final) book in The Mortal Instruments series. (The first two book are called City of Bones and City of Ashes.)
I can’t say I enjoyed this one as much as the first two. Clary is still trying to revive her [...]

Book Review – Three Cups of Tea
Three Cups of Tea by Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Relin
I’m sure most people are aware of what this book is about so I’ll make my summary brief. Greg Mortenson was coming off the mountain after failing to summit K2 (his failure wasn’t really a failure, he wasn’t really given the opportunity to even attempt [...]

BBAW – Interview Another Book Blogger
Well, I meant to sign up to interview another blogger, but I didn’t. I kept thinking, I should get signed up for that, but I just never did so I decided to interview myself! Silly, I know, but I think it might be at least half as fun as having someone else interview me and [...]
