Picture This! New to My Shelves: A Breath of Snow and Ashes by Diana Gabaldon

2:40 PM
“Time is a lot of the things people say that God is. There’s always preexisting, and having no end. There’s the notion of being all powerful-because nothing can stand against time, can it?

Mostly because it's *the* birthday month of most of the people in my life (the runner-up is November) but especially because it's the birth month of my best friend and my father. I took a lot of photos this year as per usual but as you will no doubt be able to...

Fuel the Fire by Krista & Becca Ritchie | Rating: ★★★★★  “I’m attracted to people. To the words they speak, to the actions they take, to their full-bodied mannerisms and soulful gaits. I am attracted to people. To impassioned hearts that beat out of sync, the ones that skip a measure, heard in hushed places and violent spaces—I am attracted to people.”  Fuel...
