Bunny by Mona Awad fulfilled the category “Dark Academia” for the PopSugar 2021 Reading Challenge. The novel takes place at Warren University (pun intended, I’m sure) where Samantha Mackey is a graduate student working on her MFA in fiction. Okay, so what did I just read? This story confused and confounded me. I wasn’t …
There isn’t much “how-to” for this app. It’s mostly click and watch the vids or listen to music or voice recording. Explore it and find out what works for you. Nothing too complicated and very user-friendly. Create an account for the program by logging in with Facebook, Spotify, your Apple Id, or simply an …
The Queen of Nothing by Holly Black fulfilled the category “Book with Something Broken on the Cover” for the PopSugar 2021 Reading Challenge. The novel has a broken crown on the cover. This crown has been featured on all the stories and only cracked in half on the third. Yes, this is another Young …
So, funny story. My house has been chaotic lately, and my focus has been nil. I completely forgot to write and post the third installment of OneNote. But thankfully, I choose a meditation app for the next one. (See my previous post on Headspace.) Thanks to the meditation I’ve been doing on Headspace all …
Stay Gold by Tobly McSmith fulfilled the category “A Book about a Fresh Start” for the PopSugar 2021 Reading Challenge. In this novel, Pony, a transgender boy, starts over at a new high school. I will be honest. The title and the main character’s name were the reason I chose this novel. As you …

Jane and the Unpleasantness at Scargrave Manor by Stephanie Barron fulfilled the category “Free Book from my TBR list” for the PopSugar 2021 Reading Challenge. This novel was gifted to me by my good friend, Rosemary. We are both passionate for all things Jane Austen, but I have some work to do to …
I’ll focus on the desktop version for this how-to. Starting Tasks Download/install OneNote. You may need to create or log in to your Microsoft account. This allows cloud-access to the files. By connecting to your account, other MS software can attach to OneNote (like Word). New Notebooks Think of notebooks in OneNote as file …
Pride: A Pride & Prejudice Remix by Ibi Zoboi fulfills the category “Book by a Muslim American Author” for the PopSugar 2021 Reading Challenge. I took this title from Goodreads list, but I can’t seem to confirm if Ms. Zoboi is actually Muslim. I don’t care. I love this story and had it on …
We’ve been looking at some complicated programs so far in 2021. For the next set, I’m taking a step back to an oldie but a goodie, OneNote by Microsoft. OneNote is (now) a cloud-based filing system. Depending on which Office suite you own, you will have slightly different versions of the app. The older …
