One of my favorite reading spots : the Grande Bibliothèque de Montréal, the library where I spend way too much time, reading, looking for books, appreciating the quiet. For more Wordless Wednesday, click...

Of course the book I need to read always ends up at the bottom of the first box I packed! On another note : colors! I had been wanting to add colors to the comics for a while, and I finally gave it a try this week. It was more work than the usual black and white, but I think I like it… what do you guys think? ...

I’ve never been good at...

HAPPY NEW YEAR READERS!  ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ 2012 has come to a close, and of course this means it’s time for another of those “Best of” lists! 2012 was a great reading year for me. Not in terms of quantity (although yes, I did read a lot more than expected), but in terms of quality. There were still a few rotten apples in the mix, but overall I have become better in dropping a book when I’m not into it. This means it...

While writing my post for this week’s Top Ten Tuesday, one thing was made clear to me : I had a lot of catching up to do if I didn’t want to be left behind come January1st! I said it on my first day of high school, and it is still true to this day; each year seems to go faster than the precedent.

In no particular order, this year, I am thankful for : 1. Brandon Sanderson & the Mistborn...

Ten days ago, I presented you all with a special request : recommend me some adult books, or books that are different than the ones I have been reading recently. You answered my cry for help with even more recommendations than I had hoped for and it was exactly what I needed. Because I am always looking for a reason to make lists, I had to make one for your recommendations (including my own, and excluding those for books I have already read). I...

Dear readers, I come to you today with a very specific request : I need some recommendations for some adult fiction or non-fiction. If you accept the challenge, read further to find out exactly what I am looking for! You see, I just finished reading Crossed  yesterday, and while I sped through it, it was nothing special, really. And while I do enjoy most YA I read, and know that there are some really great YA novels out there, I’ve been...
