Readathons Whateverathon, or Whatever-You-Want-athon, is taking place the entire month of June. This readathon is hosted by Maddie from Book Browsing Blog on YouTube. This is the second year of the readathon. I had a lot of fun with it last year, and hope to have fun with it again this year. The teams and…
This is written like it’s supposed to be plot-driven, but you can guess what will happen. The twists come from acts, that seem out of character. These moments pull you out of the story. This is probably an unpopular opinion since most reviews I heard about this book were great. I was excited to read the book finally but then had these moments pull me out of the book.

When you go running, they say you should listen to music with somewhere between 120 to 140 beats per minute. This should help you keep a good cadence throughout your run. However, I much prefer listening to audiobooks when I run. Music makes me want to dance, and this could mess up my running cadence…
Now a few weeks ago, I had what I thought were some hives show up on my left arm and hand. Spurts of these itchy bumps appeared from my elbow to the palm of my hand. It wasn’t until I went to set things up at my desk before our first day officially back in…

Maddie from Book Browsing Blog on YouTube, has created a readathon for the month of June called Whatever You Want A Thon, or Whataverthon for short. Here is her announcement video. I’m still trying to get myself out of this slump of sorts I seem to be in, and am struggling with home and work…
I had a YouTube channel once. I think I even have most of the videos I made still out there. For some things, I felt they could be better discussed in a video, and somehow I started putting everything in a video. I did this for a couple years before slowly returning to blogging. Video is how I get most of my information today, like many others. It’s easy to turn on while doing other things. So why am I back to blogging?
Most all readers have used Goodreads, or at least tried it out. And those of us who have tried or used it, all seem to have common reasons of why we hate using Goodreads. Yet, these items have not been addressed by Goodreads.
In 2019 there were a few books I picked up, and while I had no intention of DNF’ing them, I failed to finish before putting them down for an extended time. I haven’t had much of this issue come up in my reading life until now; and it seems to be coming on strong.
