The nitty-gritty: A short but emotional story about life and death, with ghosts and witches and cats. And rats. We talk about the knives in her kitchen. She agrees to lock them in the closet for the night. Too readily: she’s not a knife girl, not Vicky. I listen to the despair and weariness in […]
Happy New Year, everyone! I know the general consensus is to say “GOOD RIDDANCE” to 2016, but in terms of reading I had a GREAT year. I read so many fantastic books, visited so many awesome blogs and continued to interact with many fellow bloggers. While the world around us falls apart, speculative fiction is […]
We’re nearly at the end of the year, so it’s time to look back over the books I read in 2016 and share my favorites with you! I’ve decided against a top ten list this year, because I read way more than ten books that spoke to me in some way, either on an emotional […]
Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by the Broke and the Bookish, where each week bloggers are given a new top ten list to blog about. Today starts a long string of cool TTT topics, and today we’re focusing on the books coming out during the first half of 2017 that we’re most excited about! This […]

Welcome to Over-Booked, where I get to share my recent book acquisitions! I’m linking up with Stacking the Shelves at Tynga’s Reviews and The Sunday Post at the Caffeinated Book Reviewer. It’s hard to believe there is just a little over three months left in 2016, and as the year winds down, so do the […]

Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Breaking the Spine, and is a fun way to share upcoming books that you’re excited about with other bloggers and readers. Won’t you all scream along with me? COVER REVEAL! I’ve been waiting for this cover to pop up, and I love it. It fits so well with the […]
Other than my normal Goodreads challenge, the only other reading challenge I’m doing this year is Worlds Without End’s 2016 Women of Genre Fiction Reading Challenge, and since we’re at the half-way mark in 2016, I thought it would be a good idea to see where I am. The rules are to read SFF fiction by […]
