Welcome

Welcome! Welcome! Welcome!

We like food. | We like drinks. | We like books.

We thought we'd make something of it. Check out what we're currently reading, progress on book challenge(s), book reviews or send us an email.
In the mean time, here are 10 things random facts that don't really tell you anything about us.
First, let me introduce myself..♪♫♪ You'll mostly be hearing from me. I thought this would be cheaper than hiring a therapist to talk to about all the feelings I had once I finished a book.
