Review: The Witch Hunter by Virginia Boecker

Posted July 2, 2015 by Wendy in Reviews / 6 Comments

Why Did I Read? The witches and historical fiction premise sounded so interesting! My Thoughts: When I first heard about this book, I was so excited for it because I had this phase back when I was younger where I just loved historical fiction. I also was highly interested in the Salem witch trials (I loved the play The Crucible and the book The Witch of Blackbird Pond— the latter I read when I was really young and probably started my whole phase!)

Of UtopYa and Nashville Adventures! Part 2

Posted July 1, 2015 by Wendy in Personal, recap / 5 Comments

I talked about the first part of my UtopYa and Nashville adventures in part 1 earlier this week and now it’s time to relive the remainder of the trip! Friday: We got a later start on Friday because there wasn’t really any panels we wanted to go to until the afternoon so we took it easy before heading out for the day.

When I think top books, I just tend to think favorites and I […]

Last week I was able to take an incredibly fun trip to Nashville (I’ve always wanted to go to Nashville!!) to attend UtopYa with some of my blogging besties (Tonya, Jess, Danielle)!! I couldn’t have been more excited and to be honest, I was mostly just super excited to hang out with my friends that I haven’t seen in so long! And it was SO AMAZING and I’m now in a post vacay funk and I’m sad and suffering from […]

Reccing to Randoms

Posted June 26, 2015 by Wendy in Discussion / 4 Comments

Okay. The title of this post sounds kinda dirty but it FITS. Do YOU rec books to random strangers? Tonight I had a fun experience of reccing books to a stranger and it was like the best book high ever. I mean, I love book pushing. When I love a book, I want everyone else to experience it too! Within the book blogging community though, we all have such massive TBRs that these recs usually get shelved somewhere and won’t get […]
