I can't tell you the last time I read a book that was just out. Scalzi deserves it. Helps my husband bought it for our family library AND made sure I had time to read it on my birthday. It isn't a long book. Scalzi had talked/written about writing "popcorn fiction." Stuff that's fun for… Continue reading Review: Starter Villain

Review: Alas, Babylon
I read this book in high school for AP English. It was one of those books that stood out as good despite the topic. So, this year I decided to read it again. If you haven't read it, you should. Especially with everything happening in Ukraine right now, the looming fear of nuclear war (I… Continue reading Review: Alas, Babylon
Review: Baulder’s Gate 3
I asked my husband to give me an early birthday present: Baulder's Gate 3. He said he was surprised I hadn't pre-ordered. I stuck my tongue out at him because it was the most mature response I had. I haven't had a tabletop game all year. The only regular game I had kept hitting bumps… Continue reading Review: Baulder’s Gate 3
Review: Makeup
I hate makeup. And by that, I mean.... I really wish I was good at make up and I'm not and it's really frustrating. I like the mostly-natural look, but I wish I knew how to do the fancier looks people do with makeup. It's the worst of "women's clothing" conundrum. What one brand uses… Continue reading Review: Makeup
SAG Strike
This is going to be a short post. The writer's have been on strike for a few months now. The actors have joined the picket line. If you have been under a rock and didn't know: they get paid like shit for those awesome shows/movies we all love. Not always, but too often. And those… Continue reading SAG Strike
Parental Controls
Now that I have a kid, I have opinions on parental controls. I've heard forever "they are awful" but very few of the parents could give me real reasons. So I am going to list my reasons. They don't make sense. You set the age of your child and they deliver a smorgasbord of "age… Continue reading Parental Controls
Review: Vainqueur the Dragon
My brother introduced me to one of the best/worst sites I have ever encountered. Royal Road is a site for people to post their fiction for others to read, rate, review, etc. I now have an official love/hate relationship because I am reading about 5 "ongoing" works and I want it all right now. But… Continue reading Review: Vainqueur the Dragon
Review: Media Bias Chart
This is a little different than my normal reviews. This is a review of a review (sort of). I have been watching/using this chart for several years now. The Ad Fontes media Bias Chart. Click here to look at the chart for yourself: https://adfontesmedia.com/ (I tried to link to the image but they have it… Continue reading Review: Media Bias Chart
Review: Iron Widow
I meant to review this awhile ago, but life got in the way. This has been sitting in my Drafts folder for too long. I really wish I could read this book a second time before I review it. There is a lot to chew on and I hope on a second reading I'll catch… Continue reading Review: Iron Widow
Life Events: Encyclopedia
I have encyclopedias that need a new home. A home that will love it as much as I do.
