Attack of the Social Media!
Okay, guys. Reviews and actual posts are still going to be here, but now you can find me reblogging fan art and fun news on tumblr and garnering fans on facebook. If one or both of those is your Thing, come say hi!

Updates Again!
Couple of things to share with y'all, fellow bookworms.
FIRST: I was supposed to be moved into my new apartment completely by last Friday. Things didn't quite go to plan (I mean, nothing ever does, that's life, but things went less to plan than usual), but I am now finally moved in and settled, and I've made my first trip to the local library. Life is good.
SECOND: The other reason that this last week has been so hectic is Luna. Luna is a seven-week-old Siamese kitten who, after lots of uncertainty, I ended up adopting. She's a real sweetheart, but it's like having a baby in the house: never a quiet moment.
THIRD: The move from tumblr (and assorted other private blogs and personal notes) to blogspot is complete! The review archive is 100% up to date.
FOURTH: Regular blogging to recommence immediately! My review for LOSS will be up tomorrow, which will be the beginning of post-move blogging normalcy for real.
Until tomorrow, happy reading!

Adventures in Book Blogging
Full disclosure, guys. In high school, I tried to be a book blogger. I was over at Bookworm Boulevard. It actually worked quite well for a while.
And then things like college applications and high school drama and graduation and family things started happening. Being a book blogger and a high school senior honors student with clinical depression was not something I could manage. Plus, my email account was compromised (ugh) so I had to set up a new google account and all of my blogger stuff got messed up.
So once everything calmed down a bit and I settled into college and taking care of myself, I decided to try again, except I started on tumblr. I love tumblr, don't get me wrong. It's a wonderful community of people and a great way to share information and ideas and art about all sorts of things. But the medium just wasn't doing quite what I wanted it to.
And so here I am. Fresh blog, same blogger. As I mentioned before, I am porting over reviews from my old blog and assorted places on my computer to the archives, but I'm backdating everything I import to last summer (July 2012) so that it won't clog anyone's blog readers or look like it's something Brand New that I Just Wrote.
This time, guys, I'm in it for the long haul. Books are my passion and it's going to take an apocalypse to stop me talking about them.
Happy reading!
