• Kindred Spirits.

  It’s Book-of-the-Month Day, yo! A short critique of L.M. Montgomery’s Anne of Green Gables Good morning, Dear Reader! As usual, I intend to keep this review short and sweet. Very sweet.

• My Ultimate Library: Part 1.

  SnapDragon lists her tried-and-true, doesn’t-remember-life-without-them books. My signature move at parties is to ask people to list their favorite things–movies, bands, desserts–without overthinking their response. “Ready, gut-reaction, go!” So in fairness, I’ve decided to list my all-time favorite books using this method.
