Read moreMy latest review is up at Great New Books. Please stop by and see what I thought about Lily King’s Euphoria. And we were lucky enough to have the author sign a copy of her book for us so we have a give away running at the site as well. If you haven’t had a […]
Read moreI recently started reading 100 Essays I Don’t Have Time to Write: On Umbrellas and Sword Fights, Parades and Dogs, Fire Alarms, Children, and Theatre by Sarah Ruhl.

The first podcast I discovered was The Art of Simple. Anne Bogel, (a.k.a. Modern Mrs. Darcy) one of my favorite bloggers, was interviewed over the summer […]
Read moreI read the paper every weekend. Weekdays, I just never get to it. If Rob sees an article he thinks I might like, he’ll pull it for me but that’s as close as I get to being a newspaper reader during the week. On the weekends though, I really do try to sit down and […]
