How to Get Stickers off Books
Without ruining the cover, of course.
The video version of this, with the more difficult stickers, and if you don’t feel like reading.
You will need three things if you’re a beginner and four things if you’re under whatever the suitable age for this sort of thing is. Please remember to wash your hands after doing this, as I do not want anyone catching fire.

The Truth About Evolution
I’ve been listening to many “science-y” podcasts and reading quite a bit of unofficial overviews of science-based topics. Most of these involve DNA, bioengineering, and the theory of evolution. Now, I may not be an expert on the finer points of DNA, or bioengineering, for that matter (though I’ve had many intense ethical issues with it), but I have a pretty damn good handle...

Shopping for (Book) Nerds →
I have this little pink hanger on the left…and below my Kobo somewhere. It’s a link for things I shop for or will probably shop for. It’s mostly a collection of nerdy book things/nerdy nerd things.
