Everyone seemed very disappointed by the fact that my last video book review didn’t have a cat in it, so I forced Pearl into this one: you’re welcome! Unfortunately I wasn’t a huge fan of the novel I review in this video, although I can see why this book would appeal to lots of other…
I’m going to make an effort to do more video book reviews as people seem to like them, plus, they’re fun to do! My apologies there are no kitties in this video, and as always, please send any feedback my way re: lighting, backgrounds, etc. I need all the help I can get!
It’s getting to be that time of year folks! December starts tomorrow, and I’ve got my advent calendars (yes, that’s plural) locked and loaded. To mark this special time of year, I’m going to be posting a video each day on my youtube channel until Dec. 25. They’ll be short and sweet, recording my unveiling…

So I shot this video on vacation in a rental home, therefore the lighting is terrible and the sound is echo-ey. My bad. Oh, and Smokey isn’t with me, because my husband draws the line at taking our cats on vacation with us (sigh). I’m reviewing Terry Fallis’s latest book One Brother Shy, which I…
So onto my next video review. The book I review below is called Waking Lions by Ayelet Gundar-Goshen, and I picked it up because of the premise-it’s timely and unique. It’s also a translation, which prompted me to read it because I love exploring books from cultures and languages other than my own, it’s like…
I’ve been jumping on a lot of bandwagons lately, most notably Bloglovin’ (which has been nothing short of a disaster) and Twitter, which is slowly but surely accepting me. And then a blogging bud of mine Laura Frey mentioned that all book bloggers are now booktubing (which I’ve gone ahead and just assumed means recording…
