About


Welcome to Vanillin & Ink! 

Vanillin & Ink is a book review blog for old favorites and new releases that I find on my shelf throughout the year. I'm a bit shy by nature when it comes to posting reviews on sites like Amazon.com and GoodReads unless they're incredibly positive (although I try to cross-post the ones that I create here from time to time), so I created this blog as a safe haven for my thoughts on what I've read. I hope that you enjoy your time here and find that it is an open place to state your case. Do you agree or disagree? Do you have a recommendation? Please feel free to contact me or comment! It's a mixed bag, so there's lots of room for your opinion, too.
 
New posts can be expected on Wednesdays each week, but there may be additional posts throughout the week depending on my schedule.





About Bee...
Hello! My name is Beth. I am the reader, reviewer, and writer here at Vanillin & Ink (as well as the owner over at The Powdered Plum). I am a 25-year-old college graduate from Louisville, Kentucky (USA). When I was in elementary school, I won a hot air balloon ride three years in a row for being the biggest reader in my grade, and little has changed since that time as far as words are concerned. Each year, I set a goal for myself on GoodReads to challenge myself to read just a little more than I did the year before, and I've been successful thus far! I like a little bit of everything, and I hope you will go with me on this journey to learn more about the world through my bookshelf.

It's Business Time...
Everything you find on this blog is my personal, unsolicited opinion. Although books are sent to me from time to time, if you see a review featured on this website, it is a result of my personal experience and opinion - good or bad. I have not been paid to make posts or publish reviews, nor will I accept payment for such a thing because I want my readers to be able to always trust that what they're reading is my honest opinion. If I have been sent a product, book, etc. for free, it will be disclaimed within the post it is featured. You can be assured that if a book, product, restaurant, author, artist, etc. is discussed in a positive light, it is because I am totally convinced of its superiority.
