Before, I get too far into this review, I should probably be clear on one thing: I’m not really a wine person.

Book Review: When The Earth Was Green by Riley Black
This is an adult book written at an adult reading level, but it captures the same sense of wonder that you’d feel as a child, learning about a really cool animal or historic period at the same time.
Book Review: Proof by Adam Rogers
This book would have been so much more entertaining in the hands of an author like Mary Roach.
Book Review: Lustful Appetites by Rachel Hope Cleves
What if I told you that a book about food and sex, two of the more enjoyable things in life, was actually kind of boring?
Book Review: Keep Going by Austin Kleon
This is my third read of Keep Going (more on that later). I read it when it first came out, then again during lockdown, and I recently felt like it was time to revisit it in the face of Trump and Musk’s fascist government and how it’s crushing a lot of people’s desire to make and share art.
Book Review: World of Wonders by Aimee Nezhukumatathil
I’ve come to really enjoy collections of short essays, in all formats. Whether it’s an ebook, an audiobook, or a print book, they’re a great way to fit in just a little bit of reading during a time where you might otherwise scroll social media.
Book Review: Liberated by Kaz Rowe
Since I just read and reviewed two non-fiction graphic novels in a row, I guess I really like this combination of genre and format.
Book Review: Wake by Rebecca Hall and Hugo Martinez
This is a book that is less about “history” as in a collection of past events, and more about “history” as in the study of past events, and the body of knowledge created by that study.
Book Review: Born of Fire and Rain by M.L. Herring
It’s title may lead you to believe it’s the next hot romantasy, but Born of Fire and Rain by M.L. Herring is actually a non-fiction book about the ecology of the beautiful temperate rainforests of the PNW coastal region.
Book Review: Femina by Janina Ramirez
There’s so much interesting stuff in history, you just have to know where to look for it.
