Top 10 Reads of 2018
Here are my favorite reads of 2018. That doesn’t mean the books are contained to 2018 release dates but rather book I’ve read in 2018. Since I am a reviewer for the Historical Novel Society, the majority of my books are historical fiction, some of which I read before the official publication date.
Overall, I hope you’ll take away some new reads. I love to talk books, so let me get my book nerd Read more of this blog post »

| An allegorical tale that had a surprising amount of religious symbolism and struggles of faith. The atmosphere is brutal and quite grotesque. The horror bits were graphic but not so much that I felt the need to put the book down. There were lots of t ...more | |

Can't Spell Treason Without Tea (Tomes & Tea Cozy Fantasies, #1)
by Rebecca Thorne (Goodreads Author) |

| This book is very cute. I loved the characters, particularly Kianthe. However, unlike its predecessor, "Legends and Lattes," it takes a while to get going. And by a while, I mean about half the book. The plot finally picks up when the dragon egg sear ...more | |

rated a book it was amazing
|
|
| I adore this duology. The inclusionary nature and normalcy of that is so refreshing. Because why are gods defined by gender anyway? They don't need to be, just like we don't need to be defined by such things when its our heart that defines us. This b ...more | |

“And I have no control over which yesterdays I keep and which ones get deleted. This disease will not be bargained with. I can't offer it the names of the US presidents in exchange for the names of my children. I can't give it the names of state capitals and keep the memories of my husband.
...My yesterdays are disappearing, and my tomorrows are uncertain, so what do I live for? I live for each day. I live in the moment. Some tomorrow soon, I'll forget that I stood before you and gave this speech. But just because I'll forget it some tomorrow doesn't mean that I didn't live every second of it today. I will forget today, but that doesn't mean that today doesn't matter.”
― Still Alice

“You're so beautiful," said Alice. "I'm afraid of looking at you and not knowing who you are."
"I think that even if you don't know who I am someday, you'll still know that I love you."
"What if I see you, and I don't know that you're my daughter, and I don't know that you love me?"
"Then, I'll tell you that I do, and you'll believe me.”
