So today just happens to be my SIX YEAR blogoversary! Yep, I started this blog on July 11, 2011, on a whim, with very little planning or thought. In fact, I pretty much used the first name that popped into my head—I mean, come on! Who calls their blog “Books, Bones & Buffy”?? (I’ve come […]
The nitty-gritty: A dark retelling of Peter Pan, steeped in loss and heartbreak, with thrilling action and lots of surprises. We were still children, for all that we thought we weren’t. We were in that in-between place, the twilight between childish things and grown-up things. Childhood still held out a friendly hand to us, if […]
The nitty-gritty: A visceral and bloody tale of a power struggle between two vampires. On the train, in the tunnels, it is quiet. Nearly last train. Everyone is detritus. As is she. She closes her eyes and floats. Her hands are getting colder. Her heart feels weak. Her wrist aches. Throbs. Insistently. She goes to […]

Waiting on Wednesday is the brainchild of Breaking the Spine, although Jill isn’t hosting this meme anymore. In any case, I will continue to post Waiting on Wednesdays, simply because it’s one of my favorite posts to do each week:-D I can’t believe there is going to be a sequel to one of my FAVORITE […]
The nitty-gritty: A delicious mashup of classic horror literature featuring a wonderfully lively cast of female characters. It was a strange experience, dressing as a man. Everything felt different, everything buttoned a different way. But when she had put on the shirt and trousers, she realized what freedom they would give her. How easily she […]
It’s July you guys! I blinked and June was over… I thought July was going to be a relatively relaxed reading/blogging month for me, but I turned around and suddenly I’ve got all sorts of things going on! And because I’m no longer doing my monthly Book Review Giveaway, I’m going to use this post […]

Welcome to Over-Booked, where I share my latest and greatest book acquisitions! I’m linking up with Stacking the Shelves over at Tynga’s Reviews and The Sunday Post at The Caffeinated Book Reviewer. I’m trying to back off on requests, but I did get some amazing books these past two weeks! Take a look: Physical review copies […]

Waiting on Wednesday is the brainchild of Breaking the Spine, although Jill isn’t hosting this meme anymore. In any case, I will continue to post Waiting on Wednesdays, simply because it’s one of my favorite posts to do each week:-D This week’s pick wins the cover of the year award for sure! I’m in love […]
Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by the Broke and the Bookish, where bloggers are given a different top ten list each week. Can you believe we’re half-way through 2017? I can’t! Today we’re focusing on the best books we’ve read so far this year. A few of these will probably end up on my final […]
The nitty-gritty: A big, bold and hysterically funny multi-generational family drama, with psychics and con men, and plenty of unexpected heart. It was true that he was unusually nostalgic for a kid, though what he pined for was a time before he was born. He was haunted by the feeling that he’d missed the big […]
