Right, so I was doing very well at continuing to update this page everyday and then something happened. I got the worst case of hives ever. I can’t even put on a pair of shoes. It sucks. And I spent the better of the evenings this week on Benadryl (which seems to be doing sweet [...]

Before I went on my vacation I downloaded the audio version of Catherine Gilbert Murdock’s The Off Season from the library, stuck it on my MP3 player and then proceeded not to listen to a single word of it while I was gone. Figures doesn’t it? But after I got back I was tired (why [...]

Ack! I listened to this on audio before I went on vacation and then totally forgot about it and almost completely forgot to blog about it. I didn’t even add it to my book list. Bad Sassymonkey!
I’m very happy to say that Ally Carter’s second Cammie Morgan book, Cross my Hear and Hope to Spy [...]

Yes, another one. I’ve been on an audiobook binge.
First of all - Wow! Not quite what I expected. What was I expecting? Something closer to Susan Beth Pfeffer’s Life As I Know It.
Second of all - Has Meg Rosoff’s How I Live Now been challenged/banned anywhere? Because I can totally see some people not liking [...]

The first thing that you must know about Memoirs of a Teenage Amnesiac is that you shouldn’t expect it to be like Gabrielle Zevin’s other book, Elsewhere. Well…not really. Ok, kinda. But mostly not really.
The similarities between the two lie in that they both have young female protagonists who find themselves dealing with things that [...]

A couple of weeks ago I had to take a bus to Ottawa. While I used to be able to read on the bus without any issues I seem to have lost much of that talent (sometimes it’s still ok…but mostly not). Thank goodness for audiobooks. Listening to music the whole way tends to drive [...]

I’ve been doing a bit of overtime this week. I’ve had a project that kept getting pushed because of technical issues and now that things are mostly working I just plain wanted to get it done. While the work can be technically involved and you have to do things are certain way much of [...]

Well, not quite. But I will be asap. Well, sorta. As soon as I get off my freaking butt and starting moving packing things again (have big box to tackle, procrastinating as I download an audiobook b/c radio and tv are both shut down).
Things I’ve learned from this move:
I never seem to finish [...]

A few months ago I listened to A Study in Scarlet. Then a few weeks ago I listened to Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets although I never did get around to blogging about it. I listened to the Sherlock Holmes while I was publishing I think and it was quite welcome at [...]

I just got an email from the library that made me say “woohoo!” out loud. lol
With my library account I’m able to access NetLibrary. While it has both ebooks and electronic audiobooks I’ve only been able to access ebooks. I only know about the audiobooks because a friend of mine has access to the [...]
