I’m back with the second part of Weirdest Place You’ve Read a Book! If there’s just a name, and no link attached, it means the person is someone I know in real life. Anyway, let me know the weirdest place you’ve read a book (or a “weird place” for non-readers). Oh, and do you want […]
My 28th birthday is on May 30, and in honor of that, I thought it would be fun to do a little birthday wish list. I didn’t specifically ask anyone for any of these things, but I like sharing wish lists all the same! If you have any of these – or see something you […]
