It’s Monday! What Are You Reading? – 18 February 2019

I am still alive! I am not reading very much. Nicky Pau Preto’s debut is gorgeous, but it is a slow build of a novel, which means it took me way too long to make any headway. My current read is an equally slow build. I am enjoying it, but it feels like I make no progress in the brief moments of reading time I am getting right now.
DID NOT FINISH:
When you don’t read very much, it is easy to finish everything.
Sunday Reflections – 17 February 2019
Happy Sunday! ***excuse me one minute while I scream*** Holy shit; this month has been awful. My coworkers are blaming the massive shitstorms at work on the month. I don't know what is different about this month versus February in year's past, but I am one step away...

Happy Sunday! I knew new owners would mean changes and some craziness, but even I was not prepared for how much my daily work would change and that those changes would be almost immediate. It feels like I started the year behind in almost everything, and I am still...

The Dreamers is an odd story. It could almost be a novel about the path of infection and its impact on society, but it stops short from becoming a medical drama. It could be a story about survivors, but it never quite reaches that path. Instead, I would describe it...

Ms. Hanover's debut novel about clones is, simply put, fantastic. The Similars is everything I love about reading. The story is engaging; I could not stop reading it everything I predicted ending up not coming true. The characters may be archetypes, but I still felt a...

Happy Sunday! It's been a month, ya'll. I got into work one Monday - the 14th to be exact - and all hell had broken loose. I have spent the last two weeks busy from dawn until dusk, living in spreadsheet purgatory, and putting out fires that never really seem to go...
