It’s the end of January, and I’m pleased to say that I’m keeping up with my reading resolutions (which I’m going to try to keep linking back to here just so I remember them myself).

I’ve been reading Leigh Bardugo’s Six of Crows for a few weeks now, and I’m only at 25%. This is weird to me because I like the author and I’m intrigued by the story, but I feel a little like I’m slogging through reading right now. It could be a number of things. My thought … More First Abandoned Book of the Year
T and I are sometimes find it challenging to find an audiobook that we’ll both enjoy. I’m not sure which of the two of us found Mirage by Sonaiya Daud, but I’m happy we did. In a world dominated by the brutal Vathek empire, eighteen-year-old Amani is a dreamer. She dreams of what life was … More Mirage | Sticky Note Reviews
