Books, Writing, & The Cozy Life
We've made it halfway through the month of June and we're also nearly halfway through 2019! This has been the strangest year for me so far.

I tend to burrow this time of year - maybe it's the anticipation of spring in New England or maybe it's the exhaustion from trying to push through unattainable new year resolutions, I don't know. But I tend to disappear and then pop... Continue Reading →
April was a killer month for me - I'm pretty sure that I was sick for at least three solid weeks of it and I completely fell out of most of my habits. Today is May 1st and I just finished this wonderful books on habits, so I'm thinking about how to find a nice... Continue Reading →
April has been a great library month for me. I think I've been able to go every week! Not to mention, I had some great overdrive holds come in. As always, thanks to Bookish Beck for creating and hosting this monthly link up. Library Books Read Home by Marilynne Robinson - Robinson is so great... Continue Reading →
