30-Day Book Meme #1: The Wave
The 30-day book meme asked me to talk about the best book I read last year. I don’t really rank my books in “best ever/worst ever” categories. I either didn’t like something, liked it, or loved it enough to read again. One of the books that fit the latter category, was The Wave: In Pursuit … Continue reading
For the Love of Reading
I’ve always thought that memes are the blogger’s equivalent of joining a franchise affiliate program – you’re given the form and content, but have the room to put your own spin on it. I’m in a meme-ish mood today, hence this one. What have you just read? I just finished reading William Dietrich’s latest Ethan … Continue reading
Book Blogger Appreciation Week Meme

Vocabulary from Booking through Thursday
I’ve always wondered what other people do when they come across a word/phrase that they’ve never heard before. I mean, do they jot it down on paper so they can look it up later, or do they stop reading to look it up on the dictionary/google it or do they just continue reading and forget … Continue reading
Lit-Ra-Chur (Booking Through Thursday)
When somebody mentions “literature,” what’s the first thing you think of? (Dickens? Tolstoy? Shakespeare?) Do you read “literature” (however you define it) for pleasure? Or is it something that you read only when you must? I’ve been pretty insular lately, so I thought I’d take a break from writing medicare advantage articles to actually participate … Continue reading
