Monday Night Gaming: Evolution
This week’s Monday Night Gaming: Evolution by NorthStar Games. This is not the sort of game I would have found on my own, but when my husband and I were at PAX Prime, we sat down with one of the Read More…
Book Review: Snow White Red-Handed
While I love the speculative fiction genre, I have my occasional dives into mystery–usually because I’m needing a relaxing read that doesn’t require me to ponder the science behind FTL travel or telepathic dragons. I started out reading this series Read More…
Book Review: The Slow Regard of Silent Things
I’m long overdue to review something so here we go–a book review: The Slow Regard of Silent Things by Patrick Rothfuss. I love Patrick Rothfuss’s previous novels, The Name of the Wind and The Wise Man’s Fear. When I heard Read More…
