I make it a point to personalize my posts here on RSR. I add mini stories and tons of personality and I try to make sure you lovely folks can in all honestly feel like we’re just chilling out on the couch talking. But I rarely do full on “personal” non-bookish post. If you follow […]
If you follow me on Twitter, then you’ve probably seen me mention a short story. I was lucky enough to win a mentorship from Jasmine Warga (author of MY HEART AND OTHER BLACK HOLES) and we worked on my short story together. My short story is called Library of An Old Ghost and like the […]
Recently, I decided to poke around the internet and see which awesome-looking books I could find. So without further ado, here are the books recently added to my TBR pile! If you’ve read/heard of any of these, let me know! *Click on the book cover for GR link!*
One of my resolutions this year was to write more personal posts. And I am the type of person who starts on my resolutions immediately. I followed a bunch of authors/literary agents/publishers/editors on Twitter. I caught up on my reviews and returned my library books in favour of personal books. I made a spreadsheet to keep […]
Happy New Year! I’ve seen plenty of people share their resolutions/goals and I wanted to do something similar. These goals are both bookish and non-bookish, random and probably not so random! Carry a pen with me everywhere. I get ideas all the time- for new posts, for writing, even for class projects. But the problem […]

I can’t believe 2014 is over! It’s been a year packed full of awesome highs and crappy lows but above all it was one full of some really awesome books! I decided to do this post separate from our recap survey thanks to my coworker that had the nerve to ask how much I spend on […]
Merry Christmas my lovelies. 2014 has been full of highs, lows and everything in-between and I want to take a moment to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. I appreciate every single follower RSR has and I am so grateful for all the support you have shown us. I […]
Happy Holidays, everyone! If you’re following me on Twitter, you’ve probably heard me mention that I’m going on a family vacation over the holidays. Basically, from the 16th-30th, I am visiting family during that time and am not counting on a good internet connection. Which is why my books will save me! I am bringing […]
Time to throw confetti and break out some cake! Read. Sleep. Repeat. is two years old as of today and darn it I’m getting all teary eyed! I started RSR as a way to get all of my bookish thoughts off my chest. I never would have thought I would find such an amazing community, […]
