I am not a cop!

I admit it, I enjoy a good farce from time to time. Which is why I had to give two books a try.The first was Heat Wave by "Richard Castle", aka a ghostwriter. Heat Wave is "written" by fictional character Richard Castle, played by Nathan Fillion on the ABC...

Oh Get A Grip already! Sheesh!

This week I have moved to a new day at Oh Get A Grip. I have given up Tuesdays because with classes, and work, they are way too hectic for me, and I don't like to write my post up too far in advance.So I have moved to Fridays!And...

Read Any Good Books Lately?

I have. Two Little Lies (Sins, Lies and Secrets, #2) by Liz Carlyle Really nice follow-up to the first in the series, One Little Sin. Quin was a little hard to like at first, but you understand him more, little by little, and by the end of the book I was fully...

Goin’ to Jackson

Actually, back from Jackson, but I wanted to give you a recap in picture form. Moose. You can see 2 of them if you squint, but I think there are actually three. Maybe it’s a little moose family. Ahhn. They were just laying out in back of the visitors’ center, right...

I Take It Back

I did a post about a month ago about buying shoes from ShoeDazzle to fight heart disease. I take it back. Fight heart disease some other way. Just don’t join ShoeDazzle. Let me tell you why, in the format of a series of events: Wednesday of last week: I wore my super adorable...

Fight Heart Disease: Buy Shoes

Today is National Wear Red Day. I know, another stupid made-up holiday in February, but I’m ok with this one because you don’t have to support the greeting card industry to participate in it. National Wear Red Day is all about education. Heart disease is the #1 killer of women....

Did You Watch The Grammys?

I did. You didn’t miss much. Here’s my Twitter stream from the night: The Zac Brown Band just got a new fan. Their opening number was awesome, and I generally can’t stand too much for patriotic songs. I did not know an acoustic guitar could make that sound. Awesome. @becs1017 They need to...

Whitewashing Books

Book Smuggler did an excellent post on the whitewashing of book covers recently that really got me thinking. If you don’t click over, (BUT YOU SHOULD) you’ll find that whitewashing is putting a white person on the cover of a book that clearly stars a person of color as the...

Reading/Want to Read

I’m currently reading: CONFORMED TO HIS IMAGE, Kenneth Boa. I’m reading it sloooowly because it’s a textbook. And because a lot of the stuff in the early sections is sort of self-explanatory/not-presenting-anything-new-or-old-stuff-in-a-new-light. I am hoping it ‘picks up’ for a textbook, but still a worthy read. A GATE AT THE STAIRS, Lorrie...

FIRE, Kristin Cashore

My review of Cashore’s first novel, Graceling, is here. I really enjoyed it. But you know what? Fire was even better. I’ll be honest, the prologue bothered me because it’s about the antagonist, who we KNOW is the antagonist (if we’ve read Graceling) and that was a hard way to enter...

WRAITH, Phaedra Weldon

Zoe Martinique is *funny*. When faced with evil, she calls it ‘oogey.’ She goes to work in a catsuit and black bunny slippers. What’s not to like? The tag-line for this book is ‘out of her body and in over her head,’ and whoever came up with it needs a raise...

STAYING DEAD, Laura Anne Gilman

I wanted to read this because I follow Gilman on Twitter and she is smart and sassy and I figured her books would be too. (I was so right.) This is the first of the Retrievers series and introduces us to the Cosa Nostradamus, or the network of fatae (non-human magical...

STREET MAGIC, Caitlin Kittredge

This book is intense. Jack Winter, the mage, is a heroin addict because it’s the only way he’s found to turn off his sight, being able to see the dead. Pete Caldecott is a young detective inspector fighting her way out from under her father’s shadow at Scotland Yard. The characters...

Does It Get Any Better Than This?

If you read my blog before you've probably seen the great cover my publisher designed for The Keepers of Sulbreth. I could barely hope for another one half so cool for the second book, Beyond the Gate. Earlier this week, James Tampa sent me a preview of the cover. I...

More Than Expected

As most of my loyal readers know, I had my first book signing for The Keepers of Sulbreth this past Saturday. I was extremely nervous and changed my outfit selection many times. When I arrived at the shopping center I couldn't find a parking spot. On any other day I...

Meh.

We have another middle school thingy to do this weekend, and last weekend was chock-a-block full of socializing, so I am wiped out. Plus I’ve had a headache all day, and that stinks. I did watch the Oscars, that was fun, moreso because I’d seen five out of the ten nominated...

Friday On My Mind

At the Riskies. And, in case any of you doubted my guy’s ability to be both hyperbolic and kind of a good writer–this is from a piece he wrote recently (and he even spelled ‘maelstrom’ right!): “I was in the Gettysburg Museum, and was silently crying my heart out in a...

1. I am no longer sick. The Spouse seems to have caught it, though. 2. I am trying to write when I have a spare hour, like this one, so I’ll still not be so chatty here. Plus my life is as dull as it’s always been, so no news...

My love for Korean drama romances

Thinking, ramblings, and such

This crazy weather is kicking my butt. Seriously. Just when I think I'm recovering, I start feeling horrible again. I haven't wanted to do any work except rest but even resting makes me restless. I can't seem to get back into that work frame of mind, and productivity is non-existent...
