I'm linking up with Lena for this week's Tuesday 10. This week's 'theme' was Blogger's Choice, and I decided to steal a theme from weeks previous that I missed and do 10 things I love about the place I live. So, here are my: It's a big city (population-wise) that...
Book Review: Tigana
Tigana by Guy Gavriel Kay This was the first time I'd read this author even though I'd seen his books on shelves for years, and now I'm wondering why I waited to so long to give him a chance. This was a quality fantasy read. A intricate, interwoven plotline; complex...
Currently
Current Book: Naamah's Blessing by Jacqueline Carey. This one's been sitting by the wayside forever, because I know something bad is about to happen in the book and I don't want to read that part, haha. Current Playlist: Nothing. I don't listen to music while I work,...
Tuesday Treasure Trove

Love/Hate
Joining up with the lovely Noël for the Love It/Hate It link-up. I love cold refreshing beverages and ice cream and milkshakes. I hate the brain freeze headache I usually get from consuming them too fast. I love doing design work. I hate that I sometimes have...
10 Things You Didn’t Know
I've seen a lot of 'Me, Myself & I' and 'Things I'm Afraid to Tell You' posts floating around lately, and while I'm not going to do either one of those (at this time), I did think a post where you get to know me a bit better was a good idea. So here, in no particular...
Ask Me Anything
Ever wondered anything about me that I haven't mentioned or covered on the blog? (to be fair, there is probably plenty - this is still a growing space). Well, now's your chance to find out. I'm going to being doing a post (or several, depending) dedicated to answering...
