Anagram Interactive provided me access to Paperless Post in exchange for an honest review. Putting a stamp on an envelope and sending a letter is slowly becoming a thing of the past. Email is fast, convenient and has become more the norm. Call me old-fashioned, but I miss that cute stationary and the personal touch […]

I’ve been a tea drinker for as long as I can remember.  Recently, I learned that there are traces of plastic in teabags, and ever since, I’ve stayed away like the plague. I have started using loose tea and actually prefer it. The tea has a much stronger taste than bagged and if using a […]

This            vs         This One of my first purchases when starting zero waste was a Klean Kanteen.  In the zero waste movement, a reusable water bottle is consistently listed as “One of the Big Four”.  There is a bottle of water on my bedside table — it’s convenient and I’ve always done it.   Upon starting […]

For the majority of 2018 I have been in a blogging rut. I’ve read, I’ve just lacked the enthusiasm to blog about it.  I want to enjoy what I’m reading without the self imposed pressure to review it.  I’ve tried to invoke my original spark for book blogging, but come up empty handed.  During my […]

For the past month I’ve pinned articles on Zero Waste  and living a natural lifestyle.  What sparked my interest in living a greener and less wasteful lifestyle started with paper coffee filters. I cannot function in the morning without a cup of coffee. However, every time I throw that paper filter in the garbage I […]

Coming to a Theater Near You is a new monthly feature to highlight novels that are being released to the big (or small screen) in the coming month. Due to my enjoyment of reading the book before the movie I also plan on using these monthly posts as a list of books I’d like to […]

I took an extended vacation from blogging this winter. First, I went through a reader’s slump and as this is a book blog, it became a blogging slump. As always Harry Potter got me through my reader’s block but it was not until a few weeks ago, when I read The Princess Bride that my […]

Almost two years ago I became a Pescetarian. A Pescetarian refrains from eating all meat with the exception of fish. My aunt has maintained this diet since she was sixteen and it fulfilled my mother’s worry about me getting my B12. When people ask why I became a vegetarian/pescatarian my answer is “I wouldn’t want […]

I’ve stated it before, but I’m a sucker for a film that has been adapted from a book. I’m not sure what it is because the book is almost always better than its adaptation, yet I still love seeing a story come to screen. Recently, I’ve been watching a lot of films that fit this […]

I have been unmotivated in regards to reading and blogging.  I am in a slump.  It is not that I have lost interest in these hobbies but rather a dispassion towards our current society.  I have stated it before but one’s emotional state can really affect my reading experience and an orange has done it […]
