Review: Heroes of the Frontier
"This was the common criminal pursuit of all contemporary humankind. Give my child an Ikea desk and twelve hours a day of sedentary typing. This will mean success for me, them, our family, our lineage." ~ Dave Eggers, Heroes of the Frontier
Top Ten Tuesday: Books that Take Place in Another Country

Top Ten Tuesday: Books on our Spring TBR
We divided this one up between each other and it was honestly hard to pare it down to five books each. But we managed somehow. As always, thanks to That Artsy Reader Girl for this Top Ten Tuesday!
Review: The Doldrums
“Many people fear they might be crazy at some point in their lives, but it requires a healthy dose of sanity to think there's a chance you might be crazy. It's only when you think there is no chance whatsoever that you should be worries. Only you won't be worried because you'll be crazy.”
Top Ten Tuesday: Books that Surprised Us
It was tough to narrow down our list for this installment of Top Ten Tuesday. There have been so many books we’ve read even in the last year or so that we thought we’d hate but loved, or that we were really hopeful for but hated. Thanks to That Artsy Reader girl for continuing on the Top Ten Tuesday tradition!
Review: Enemy Women
"Through the shutters, Adair could smell the latrines. It was like the Female Seminary of the Netherworld. A ladies’ academy in hell." - Paulette Jiles, Enemy Women
Review: Regarding the Pain of Others
"Television news producers and newspaper and magazine photo editors make decisions every day which firm up the wavering consensus about the boundaries of public knowledge. Often their decisions are cast as judgments about "good taste" -- always a repressive standard when invoked by institutions," Susan Sontag.
