However, chatting with a friend who wants to come back to blogging, plus the advent of Blaugust, reminded me that I bought a new domain and made new graphics for the blog and need to get them sorted!

Oh hello there! It has been a while. I’ve not had the spoons to write much at all these past few months and so to preserve what little energy I have, I let myself leave the blog ticking along. However, I’m having a bit of a reading renaissance this year, it seems, and I’m just so excited about so many books I thought it would be nice to share some of that excitement. As such, here are all of the…
