I recently bought a 10.1″ Samsung Galaxy Tablet (fell in love with it immediately). One of the apps I bought was Paper Camera. It allows you to take pictures with several effects coded into the application. Earlier this week I piled up my most immediate TBR to see what I have coming ahead. At work [...]
Week 2 is finally here. I’ve heard from a couple participants that while it was relatively easy to put the book down after the first section, it’s not as easy after finishing this week’s sections.

Last week Monday, I was in full on book blogging crisis mode. You may have noticed I wasn’t around much since the beginning of April and had been posting only the bare minimum required to meet my previous commitments. Nothing about my life as the Literate Housewife was appealing to me in any way. I [...]
Yes, I do think that there can be too much of a good thing. While reading Stardust, I figured out that reading four books might be too much to ask of any author. There was no reason for me not to connect with Tristran or Yvaine that I can think of, but I didn’t. I [...]
