Birthday month book haul! Shawshank, June 22, 2021 What’s up, book nerds?! So yesterday, I’m sitting at home – as one does on a day off, and I hit refresh on the 4 packages that I’m tracking from the beautiful Crystal. After the page refreshes, it says I have a package at the post office. It’s noon, and TinyTown shuts down from 12-1 everyday. I’m serious, an air raid siren actually goes off every day at noon. So I wait an hour to go and get my package. I know what’s in it. I remembered a couple of nights ago that it’s ponies – custom My Little Ponies, and some DVDs. No biggie. I walk over and get the slip out of my PO Box. But there’s two tags on it, meaning that I have two parcels. TWO PARCELS! I get the box of ponies, and there’s another. I don’t look at it. It’s an international package, that means that there’s a customs sticker on it saying what’s in the envelope. It sits upside down on my kitchen table for 9 hours. 9 HOURS. I won’t open a birthday present without Crystal watching on Duo. I open it, and it’s a book! It looks very cool, and Crystal says that it was suggested – if you liked House of Leaves, you’ll love Bats of the Republic. I can’t wait to start reading this! It looks strange and different, and has a ribbon bookmark! Fancy! Lockup Library birthday monthblogbloggerbookbook haulbook loverbooksjournalpersonal blogreadingtalking about books

Lockup Library Riddle me this… December 12, 2020 Ok, I’m new at the whole book blogging thing, but I have a question. And I’ll try not to sound like an ass. But please believe me, I’m asking out of total curiosity, no malice at all. What’s the draw of reading YA novels? It seems that like 80% of… Read More
