Book Review: The Merciful Crow

Book Review: The Merciful Crow

At Book Con in NYC, I was lucky enough to snag an ARC of the Merciful Crowby Margaret Owen. The book tells the story of Fie, a chief-in-training of the lowly Crow caste, charged with collecting those dead of the Sinner’s Plague.

My First Book Con!

My First Book Con!

For once, I didn’t injury my ankle (mostly because I was wearing an ankle brace at the time), but managed a midfoot sprain with a possible hairline fracture.

Here I am!

Two and a half years…

Recent mood. I’m trying my best to stay motivated in the face of some self-doubting while trying to push things forward, and I frequently worry about giving up on myself before things have a chance to progress.
