Amy Genser

All photographs taken from Amy Genser.  Even though I don’t use my art history major on a day to day basis I still love unique pieces of artwork. Colossal is the best site for viewing interesting art. That’s where I came across Amy Genser’s work. Each piece is made by rolling paper together into tightly wound […]

The Goldfinch

I picked up The Goldfinch because it is the next big literature sensation. Every blog that reviews books is writing about it and every big book store is featuring it on their website.  It even won the 2014 Pulitzer Prize!  I may be in the minority with my opinion, but I didn’t fall in love with […]

The novel centers around a British spy and how he, and others, kept sensitive information out of German hands.  I enjoyed reading Dominion, although at times I […]

Gone Girl

I gave in to pop-culture peer pressure and read Gone Girl. My mom loathes the book, but I had to see what everyone was talking about. I think, after having read it, I can see both perspectives. The book was a page turner for sure, but the characters are such horrible people that I can […]
