The nitty-gritty: A kooky, feel-good road trip story set in a Matrix-like world, When We Were Real explores the meaning of life in a humorous, heartfelt way. “Getting inebriated inside a sim was like turning yourself into a cartoon—and then turning on your cartoon television to watch the Simpsons watch Itchy and Scratchy.” Not only […]
Welcome to Future Fiction, my reimagining of the Waiting on Wednesday meme! There are so many amazing new books coming out, that I can no longer pick just one. My goal with Future Fiction is to share at least three new books each week, a combination of recent cover reveals and books that I’ve recently […]
April is another month packed with books I’m very excited to read, and obviously some of these will spill over into my May reading. I have lots of genres to choose from too, so mood reading shouldn’t be a problem. Here are my “hopeful” reads this month: Starting off with four of my most anticipated […]
Ironically, March is a long month, and yet I reviewed fewer books than I did in February. I ended the month reading two 450+ page books, and that slowed me down quite a bit. But it was such a solid month, with no books under 4 stars, so I consider March a success:-) Here are […]
Welcome to Buffy’s Corner, where I take a look at what’s coming up this week on the blog! I’m linking up with The Sunday Post over at Kimberly’s blog, The Caffeinated Reviewer:-D Spring is springing here, and I’ve taken a couple of photos from my garden (ignore the pine needles and pine cones, we haven’t […]

Welcome to Over-Booked, where I share my latest and greatest book acquisitions! There is a new blog hosting Stacking the Shelves, so do check out Reading Reality for more information! I probably should have split my March book haul into two posts, but here we are! This was a big month for book mail, and […]
The nitty-gritty: The detective story meets the gritty streets of Los Angeles in this thrilling, fast-paced and laugh-out-loud story. I had a lot of fun with the last Nick Kolakowski book I read (Absolute Unit), so I wasn’t surprised that Where the Bones Lie was a blast to read as well. PI/crime/detective novels aren’t my […]

I love doing A-Z lists, and thanks to Mayri at bookforager, I spotted yet another iteration of this fun book tag. I’ve also posted several “one word title” lists, but this time I’m combining the two together. And I’m very happy I was able to find a one word title book for “X”. Most of […]
The nitty-gritty: A powerful and complex tale of revenge, Stephen Graham Jones’ latest is an emotionally draining but ultimately rewarding reading experience. “What I am is the Indian who can’t die. I’m the worst dream America ever had.” No one can write a raw, unflinching account of the Indigenous experience like Stephen Graham Jones can, […]
