Review: Voice of War by Zack Argyle
This book is a hard one for me to review for multiple reasons. I read this as part of the BBNYA competition so I felt obligated to finish it. I might have stopped reading after the first chapter if I didn’t. Before I read it, I saw the book on a lot of ‘best fantasy’ Read More

Trying Audiobooks Again
My experiences with audiobooks haven’t been great, but when I decided to get eye surgery, I knew I wanted to give it another try. The doctor said I’d probably be able to see right away, although a bit blurry, I always expect the worst, including a longer recovery time because my body is weird. How Read More
