Pachinko by Min Jin Lee is a book that I read and reviewed last year. I was lucky enough to receive an ARC (Advanced Reader’s Copy) for it and remember blowing through the novel within a few days. Unfortunately, I had plenty of other ARCs to read and review, and as such I never gave…
Good morning bookworms and otaku dragons! Mondays tends to be sluggish days for me as I wind down from the weekend and prepare for the work week ahead. As such, I decided to keep things simple today and share with you all the books that I am currently reading and hoping to finish before the…
