This heatwave has been insane, and today being the hottest day of the week was not something that I was anticipating. The good news is that we have blackout curtains and updated windows this summer, so that’s been a big help. The bad news is that it’s so hot that I honestly don’t want to do anything. Except sleep that is. Sleep is the best. On a happy note, I’m rounding out two books that I’ve been reading, and I’m actually excited to review…

I kept wanting to catch up on reviews in here,…
