Back To The Habit

As anyone will tell you, finding time for your hobbies gets increasingly more difficult as the responsibilities increase. And I’m finding it especially true when it comes to picking up a book and finishing it. I’ve gone from being someone who reads one book per week to someone who only gets reading done while waiting…

Book Review: Seriously… I’m Kidding

I’m so behind on my reading that it actually took me almost a year to read a book that a friend got me for my birthday. I don’t know why I put it off for so long when it’s actually a fun, easy, and short. Who doesn’t love Ellen DeGeneres? She has always been one…

Book Review: Bliss Street

One of my resolutions for this new year is to read more: actual books and not random articles picked up from around the internet. So I took advantage of the long weekend and cold weather to kick start this resolution and tackle the reading pile that I have been accumulating for a while. I started…

Apologies and Updates from the Lowlands
