Tales n' Shiz

Ask me anything   Submit  

I tell tales, share tales, and do other shiz. Books, writing, reading, short stories, reviewing, reblogging. Grad school takes up a lot of time, so this should be interesting...


I'm a big nerd (read: fangirl), and realized there's no point in hiding it. There will be plenty of that.


Enjoy ^_^

Reading this RIGHT NOW and I have to say that it is an amazing piece of work. The portrayals of everyone involved are so true and real I feel as if I have a good picture of Deborah Lacks or Henrietta. It’s full of emotion and the many bits of character that make a human. It’s full of disgusting facts about the history of medicine, and the trials everyday people face in their lives. I can’t wait to finish it. Can’t stop reading.
