Welcome

A Bookaholic, Pro-life, Conservative, Catholic, with Asperger's, who reads a lot. These are the ramblings of the books I read or read aloud to my energetic Autistic 11yo. I love reading almost any book from classics to mysteries to fantasy to ARCs. I sometimes go through stages of "genre love", get addicted to manga and graphic novels or get caught up in reading ARCs, but you'll find I read a wide variety of books, both fiction and non-fiction. I tend to post a lot of reviews of juvenile/teen books but I still do a lot of adult reviews as well. I read well over 200 books a year, but haven't made it to 300 yet!

It's my Birthday!

Today is my birthday! Well, actually I like to think of it as the 4th anniversary of my 37th birthday. I always think of this song when my birthday comes around because the first birthday party I remember was my 6th b'day and all I remember is having a fit and running into the car and screaming and crying and my dad coming out and me not letting him into the car and well he got angry and finally I unlocked the doors and he told me in a low but very firm voice if I didn't start behaving myself I was going to get a hiding (spanking) and that's all I remember. But there is a picture of that day of me with a horrible pouty look on my face.

That's me in the orange dress!

Oh Nicola--I know I'm late, but happy happy birthday! that picture of you is too precious--it's the kind that can only truly be appreciated years after the fact when we can all smile about the pouty faces.

Hope you had a wonderful day.
