New Mouth, New Rules

    So.
    (I like starting out stories with that word, because that's how some translations of Beowulf start out.)
    So.  I realized several things:
    1.  I have a BA in English, and my house is Ravenclaw, so why am I not reviewing books?  This blog is the answer.
    2.  I work in a book warehouse.  A.  Book.  Warehouse.  Do you have any idea how long it occurred to me to stop wangsting about my low-brow job and realize I see different books everyday?  That I could review????  Someone smack me, please.
     3.  I gotta write.  I was trained to write.  And everything keeps coming anew.  Like the Eleventh Doctor said in the Eleventh Hour: new mouth, new rules.  And honey, do I have a sassy voice.  Can't keep it to Facebook.  Amen?
      4.  A blog is a project.  And I loooooooooooooooove projects.

    So.  First review comes up within two hours.  And my squirrely mind is coming up with all sorts of delights and treats for everyone.  Stay Tuned!

Book Reviews!

That's right!  In honor of Shakespeare and world book day and Emma Watson, I'm going to be posting reviews of my favorite (and maybe not-so-favorite) books.  Deets to come, with some fun!
