Most of my reviews this year have been non-fiction as I've been focusing a lot of increasing my understanding and knowledge base. However, half way through the year, I hit a wall.

I am back with another Top Ten Tuesday. If you want to start doing your own Top Ten Tuesday, you can find a nice long list here. This is where I am finding my prompts. As the title says, I am going to be listing my top ten fan fictions. I do just want to …

Hey everyone! It's time for another monthly wrap up! A few announcements first: Happy Canada Day to all my Canadian followers! We still have some work to do, especially around reconciliation, but we should still celebrate our country. I have not forgotten about Annie on my Mind. I haven't finished reading it due to all the …
