BOOK REVIEW | Year One (Chronicles of The One #1) by Nora Roberts

It’s been a while since I’ve done one of these things. It’s also been a while since I’ve finished a book. It’s nice to finally be out of my many-months-long reading slump… but now I’m not sure if I’ve jinxed myself. Heh. Anyway, let’s get straight into this review.   Summary With one drop of […]

I read it first!

So there I was, a few months ago, casually browsing through YouTube, when this ad for a new movie coming out played before the video: I literally watched the trailer again and again, in disbelief, because I thought to myself, in no way could this be for one of my favourite thriller novels of all […]

It’s been a while… again

Library picks

I went to the library on Sunday afternoon and picked up a few books. It’s one of the best times to go because it’s just so peaceful. I’ve learned my lesson from previous library visits that if I get too excited, I’ll borrow too much, which reduces the likelihood of me reading them all. So here […]

“People still go to libraries?”

So there I was, reading during my hour break at work, when my boss looked over at the book I was reading. He noticed the library barcode on the front cover and, surprised, ask me the question: “People still go to libraries?”   My immediate response was confusion. For some reason, in that space of […]
