It’s a reposty kind of week because Time is a Thing which is apparently Limited (and I am not okay with this). Content warning: Robin Williams’ suicide; the Ferguson riots; animal captivity; the Stolen Generation; school-based trauma. Yep, it’s a light one. (I’ll Never Have Big Enough Arms To Hold) These Disparate Things Robin Williams […]

It’s the recognition that our start in

I confess, there’s a bit of an overlap between the playlist for #FoxBook and the playlist for Maggie Stiefvater’s Shiver. That’s because if you loved Shiver, chances are high that you’ll love #FoxBook too! They both have the same resonant, bittersweet, moody kind of atmosphere, and they both have weather-linked shapeshifting, and they both have
