Read Play Blog #4

Bloggers are encouraged to answer a discussion question, and recommend a video game that is similar to a book they liked. Hosted by Happy Indulgence Books & Read Me Away.

Lola’s Ramblings: top ten sci-fi books

Prior to finding my voice as a writer I’ve worked as a signals analyst, operations engineer, wildland firefighter, backcountry ranger, kayak guide and river rat. My hobbies […]

Sunday Post #99

The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba @ Caffeinated Book Reviewer. It’s a chance to share News. A post to recap the past week, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up for the week on our blog. What happened this week?
