Welcome back to Wednesday Links! How are we all doing? It is a week of ups and downs for me. My partner and I bought a house – yipee! It happened much quicker than we intended, but of course that comes with all the extra inspections, repairs, closing, etc. It is a lot and I’m incredibly thankful my partner is someone who doesn’t mind getting on the horn to talk to everyone while I swaddle … Continue reading Links: Colleen Hoover, Auctions, & More

Did any of you attend the Lady Eve’s Last Con event that Sarah hosted? I want to hear all about it if you did! I honestly can’t remember the time I attended a book event as just a fan (and not someone running it). What was the last bookstore event you attended? The … Continue reading Links: Video Games, Romantasy, & More
It’s July! Hope you all had a safe Fourth, especially your furry friends. I know it’s a rough night for pets and Sarah said she cranked up a white noise machine for her dogs. Not a bad idea!

Happy Wednesday! (Which doesn’t feel much like a Wednesday at all to me. It feels like a Thursday. Also, isn’t it weird that days of the week kind of have their own vibe?) I had therapy yesterday and my therapist reminded me that our next session will be on Election Day. So that’s where I’m at mentally. Fun! … Did you know Olivia Waite wrote a paranormal historical romance duology? It sounds right up my … Continue reading Links: Podcasts, Dogs, & More
We are just barreling toward the end of March! At least that’s how I feel, and it’s certainly been a month. I had a bit of a reading slump and then this week, I read two books in two days. Don’t ask me how or why. Anyway, let’s get to some links, shall we? … Thank you to LMC for letting us know about these awesome Women in STEM posters!

We’ve got a lot of pets here at Bitchery HQ, and we call our pets a lot of things. For example, Amanda adopted Linus, the senior executive of floof, in August of 2017.

For me, knitting is a comfort activity. It stimulates me creatively, but the repetitive motions of knitting and purling are incredibly soothing. I don’t knit as much in the summer, but now that fall is upon us (at least, it is here), I want the cozy feeling of curling up with a movie and my latest knitting project. When I picked up The Knitting Diaries, I was hoping for the same feeling of coziness. Normally … Continue reading The Knitting Diaries by Debbie Macomber, Susan Mallery, and Christina Skye
