I just discovered the nerdy fun that is Grant Snider, so the next few Sunday mornings I should have some clever little comics for you.
Let’s start with this one:

I’m sure that a lot of you have heard of this, but I’m so excited about it I want to make sure everyone is in the know!
World Book Night started last year as just a day to promote a love of reading, literacy and books. Totally up my alley. This year, they expanded into the [...]

1. I got in a fight with my nook last night. I finally decided to use it- it’s been sitting unused for over a month- and… well… it wasn’t a super success. I think that browsing in the store is a huge pain in the butt, so I gave up and just looked around online [...]

For your enjoyment, I have answered some book-realated question for a little vlog thingy!
I even washed my hair… and got dressed. Before noon. Guys, this is big news.

I am kind of playing this parenting thing mostly by ear. I, for the most part, have no idea what I’m doing and just respond to Izey and hang out with him and love him.
There is one thing though that I’m pretty purposeful about and that is making sure that he has a love [...]

The Book: Three Cups of Deceit: How Greg Mortenson, Humanitarian Hero, Lost His Way, by John Krakauer
The Story: I don’t know how many of you have read Three Cups of Tea, by Greg Mortenson, but I remember for a hot minute that book was EVERYWHERE. When I read it, I wrote this review on Goodreads [...]
