Closer to Okay by Amy Watson
Please note that I received this book via NetGalley. This did not affect my rating or review.

Gender: A World History by Susan Kingsley Kent
Gender: A World History found its way to my ears (I went audiobook form for this one) due to a sale. For $2.99 this sounded like just the sort of thing I’d like to read.

It seemed apt for … [Read more]
She-Hulk #5 by Rainbow Rowell
I guess the arrival of the She-Hulk television series must've been a boon for Rainbow Rowell's comic series too, since both of the local comic book stores I've been to are sold out of #6. Even online retailers are out of stock, except for third-party re-sellers who are trying to make an extra … [Read more]
