Noelle's life is all about survival. Even her best friend doesn't know how much she gets bullied, or the ways her mom neglects her. Noelle's kept so much about her life a secret for so long that when her longtime crush Julian Porter starts paying attention to her, she's terrified. Surely it's safer to stay … Continue reading Review: Keep Holding On

Discussion: Required Summer Reading

We're in the middle of that time of year... summer reading for kids and teens. What a joy, right? For librarians, it can be a little bit of a nightmare for us when we don't get our shipment of summer reading books or when the procrastinators start coming in.  Even just the Children and Teen … Continue reading Discussion: Required Summer Reading

Why I Read Books Quickly

July 19, 2021June 16, 20224 Comments

I suppose I'd consider myself a fast reader, though definitely not up to those people who read a hundred books or more in a year. On average, it takes me only a few days to read a novel. It hardly ever takes me a week or longer to get through one, though for non-fiction, it's … Continue reading Why I Read Books Quickly

Happy Tuesday everyone! I'm very excited because this weekend I finally went ahead and did something that I was contemplating for a while, and then decided to just take the plunge... I opened an Etsy shop for custom bookmarks! I know there are a lot of bookish people that do this on Etsy, but I … Continue reading Custom Bookmarks – Etsy Shop

Review: Pure

July 10, 2021July 6, 2021Leave a comment

Tabitha and her four best friends all wear purity rings, symbols of the virginity-until-marriage pledge they made years ago. Now Tab is fifteen, and her ring has come to mean so much more. It’s a symbol of who she is and what she believes—a reminder of her promises to herself, and her bond to her … Continue reading Review: Pure

Mid-Year Reading Report

July 8, 2021June 16, 20223 Comments

How is it July already?! Honestly y'all, I'm just catching up to what date it is and even then I'm either messing up the month or day of the month. Usually both. Does anyone else feel like they're a month or two behind? I'm hoping it's not just me. Anyway, I didn't do one of … Continue reading Mid-Year Reading Report

June 2021 Wrap Up

July 6, 2021June 16, 20221 Comment

I found my pace more in June for reading, though it did take me while to read Pride and Prejudice. I was glad that I was able to get one last book in by the end of the month, literally having started it on the 28th and unsure if I would actually finish it on … Continue reading June 2021 Wrap Up
