Hello hello dear readers!   It’s a big day today : The Infinite Curio turns 7 YEARS OLD!   I say it every year, I’ll say it again : I’m amazed I’m still here! Before the Curio (formerly known as the Infinite Shelf), I’d had a string of blogs that never lead anywhere. Keeping up with this place through highs and lows feels good, and to this day I still enjoy having my own little corner of the web, even...

Happy Monday everyone!   How was your weekend? We had a beautiful, sunny and warm weekend here, and we absolutely enjoyed it. This weekend was our 12th anniversary, so we celebrated with a lot of sun, a walk in the Old Port of Montreal, and an absolutely delicious dinner there, too. I had lobster carbonara tagliatelle and we shared desserts, and it was amazing all around. I’ve been feeling like the luckiest woman ever for the past 12...

Happy Monday all! That’s it, July is over and August is here! It feels really weird to me; we’ve been having a very rainy and unusually cold summer, and while I’m not a fan of the super hot days, I’d still like to get a few more rays of sunshine. I feel as though the summer is only starting! But July is over, and with it my month of reading YA contemporary fiction. It was a great month. Lots of good and entertaining...

Happy Monday, Happy July! Hey everyone! It’s a new week and, for a few days now, it’s been a new month! I love July: not because it’s summer (I love a bit of sunshine, but I’m not that much a fan of very warm weathers!), but because July, for me, means a complete month dedicated to reading YA contemporaries! This will be my third year doing this, and I’ve been excited about it for a short while now! I’ve been...

I say it every year, and it becomes truer every time : I can’t believe I am still holding on to this blog after all this time! It’s been great, and I am so thankful that after all of this time, and even after disappearing for a few months, I still have people to share this little place with. So, to you all I say : THANK YOU!!! This year has been a bit quiet on the blog after a four months break, and I am still not fully back; but...

I am a little late posting this, but excited all the same. I think I have been waiting got the R.eaders I.mbibing P.eril Challenge ever since it ended last year! It was so much fun in 2013; I had a blast, reading some of my favorite books of the year, and adding many more to my wishlist! You want to join? It’s not too late, AND it’s easy and super not restrictive! Really! Any book fitting one of these categories can count...

It’s July 1st, and on top of being Canada’s Day (Hurray for you, Canada!), it is also the start of my month dedicated to reading YA contemporaries! So exciting! I have always felt that summer was the perfect time to read them, and I had a great time doing something similar for 2 weeks last year – and the results at the finish line were better than expected! While I doubt I’ll be able to double the amount of reading I...

  Can you believe it? 5 years! That’s an eternity in internet time, and yet, here I stand. I remember starting the blog (then known as The Infinite Shelf) wondering how long I would last in the blogosphere. I had tried my hand at blogging a few times, without success. I thought I didn’t have enough to say about my passions (books, photography, knitting, etc) to make it interesting. I have rarely been this happy to be wrong. I...
