Hello mersquad!

*sidenote: someone said I should get a mermaid tattoo that incorporates my favorite books and I’m all for it!

Anyway, how are you doing? I’m back with a rapid review round-up post because I’m seeing that I can’t really commit the brainwork to write up full reviews even for books that I really enjoyed! But writing something is better than nothing, right? So here’s the latest two books that I finished and want to talk about. I may do a book club thoughts post for Beasts of Prey since I’m having that meeting on Sunday, so possibly stay tuned!

Thank you again to Sam @ Taking on a World of Words for hosting this weekly meme. I’m pretty sure you all know the drill by now, but in case you don’t and you want to join, here are the three questions we always answer:

What are you currently reading?
What did you recently finish reading?
What do you think you will read next?

Yep, I went there.

BOOK CLUB THOUGHTS: Sister Outsider by Audre Lorde

Hey mersquad.

Don’t roll out the welcome wagon yet. I’m not sure if I’m actively back yet, but I did want to try my hand at blogging again, and I figured the best place to start would be after my very first book club meeting for a brand new book club. This is also another first because this is the first non-fiction book that I actually finished, since I really, really don’t read non-fiction novels.

I read Sister Outsider by Audre Lorde as part of Eleanor’s Norfolk‘s newest book club (1 of 4 new book clubs, btw!). This one was for the Queer Book Club & Discussion Group, and it was a powerhouse first book to read.
