I have this awful habit of buying books and then letting them languish for pretty much forever. I end up getting really excited about a book, purchase it, and then some shiny more pressing book comes into my mail and my purchased book pretty much sits there unloved. However, every once in awhile something jolts […]
Furious | Jill Wolfson | Book Review
May 8, 2013
Straight up, I will forever and always love books about the Furies, the avenging Greek goddesses, because I LOVE reading about stories of revenge and people getting their just deserts.

Why Did I Read This Book: I was curious about The Silver Linings Playbook by Matthew Quick mainly because of the movie coming out — I love Jennifer Lawrence and will pretty much see anything with her in it. Also, one of my interns said it was both a great book and a great movie – […]
