I’m continuing my adventures through the Tails from the Alpha Art Gallery series, but we’re heading directly to book four. I can’t be sure what exactly went wrong with my reading of the third in the series, but something definitely went wrong. Could be that I wasn’t in the right frame of mind. Could be that the story was as disjointed as it felt to read it. Whatever the case, I’m glad I persevered because … Continue reading Love Binds by Cynthia St Aubin

Pride, Prejudice, and Other Flavors by Sonali Dev is $1.99 and a KDD! Carrie reviewed this one and gave it a B-:

Amye Archer, host of Little Miss Recap, was a guest on a recent paywalled episode of Fixing Famous People talking about soap operas. I was entranced. Amye is a fan of soaps, going way back, and I was very eager to have her as a guest to talk about soaps, the romances within soaps, and some of the overlap between soap fans and romance readers. After we talk about the matrilineal cultural inheritance of soaps … Continue reading 692. Soap Opera Nostalgia with Amye Archer from Little Miss Recap

Welcome back! We’ve made it to Wednesday. Congratulations! I have personal training on Wednesdays, so most of my day is a sense of dread up until my appointment. However, I’m always glad I went when the session is done. Even if my trainer kicks my ass. I’ve been attending sessions since July and I think I just need to come to terms that I will never be a gym person. Are any of you the … Continue reading Links: Goodnight Moon, Glamor Shots, & More
