Hello and welcome! My name is Emma and I've been a bookseller for over a decade. I also write fantasy under the name E. M. Epps. This blog features my Two-Paragraph Book Reviews. One paragraph from me. One from the book. Here's why I keep it short.

Thumbs up for 100 Poems From The Japanese translated by Kenneth Rexroth. Poetry.

Haunting and utterly beautiful.

“I have always known
That at last I would
Take this road, but yesterday
I did not know that it would be today.”
–Narihira
