Sometimes you just need to get shit off your chest, and I’ve had the worst blogging weekend ever, so I thought I’d not only vent, but perhaps open a conversation for other bloggers who are having trouble with the new WordPress 5.0 update. I am NOT tech savvy at all. I don’t know much […]
OK you guys, time for something different! I thought I would interview myself about how I go about writing book reviews for this blog, and I’d love to hear how YOU write reviews as well.

In the process of redesigning this blog, I’m also redoing my “follow” buttons. And I’m wondering, do I need a booklikes follow button? Here’s what I think.
