Long time, no post....

Helllooooooooooo! Is anyone out there still following me? It's been nearly four years since my last post. GULP.

FOUR YEARS. Wow. I stopped blogging because I was pursuing a Master's degree and could not keep up with reading and reviewing.

Since that time, I've left the job I was at (as a librarian at a technical college) for a librarian position at a newspaper. After a year and a half at the newspaper, I was let go (budget cuts) and was unemployed for 6 months before getting a library position at the Health Sciences Library at a local university. I have been there a little over a month now. I've been reading a lot more and had been considering blogging again. So, I figured I'd say hello and see if anyone is still following me!

Recently read:

Naked In Death - Finally started this series. Loved the first book and am looking forward to reading more in the series.
The Passage by Justin Cronin - This was my book club's selection and I really liked it. Reminded me of a Stephen King or Dean Koontz. I'm looking forward to reading the follow-up, The Twelve.
Currently, I'm reading Dark Places by Gillian Flynn. I'm looking forward to seeing the movie and wanted to get the book read first. I'm not too far into it so I haven't really formed too many opinions on it yet!

Whew, ok my first post in four years...not great but give me time to get back into the swing of things, folks! If you're still out there, say "Hello" below!

    1. No, no more YA blog. Everything is on Book Binge...and I mean, everything. ;)

      I didn't know that Dark Places was going to be a movie.

  10. Hi Mollie!!

    Glad to see you back!! Hope everything's going well for you :) Sorry for the job, but seems like you got back on your feet! Librarian to a newspaper though? What does that entail?

    Ohhh, Naked in Death! Wonder how far you'll get in a go! LOL..

  11. Thanks, Lori!!!

    Nath, at the newspaper the librarians did a lot of research for the reporters, we also archived the paper daily...365 days a year. We are the one that cleaned up the files then sent them daily to Newsbank. Which is a resource you would access at your public library to see the newspaper articles. We also had a huge collection of historic photos and "clip files". Clip files were from the 60's-80's where the librarians would actually clip out individual articles and place them in envelopes based on their subject. So any articles written about The Ohio State University would be clipped out and placed in an envelope from that year. We have tens of thousands of these clip files, none of which are digitized. Hhehe, that was probably more than you wanted to know!
