Favorite Couples in Books
Happy week of love! Today I'm sharing some of my favorite relationships in books. I don't tend to read a ton of romance, but authors are really good at sneaking in the intrigue in nearly every novel!

More TBR
Today I'm joining Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl to share books on my TBR that I predict will be 5 stars. That's really easy, because I predict that every book that I add to my TBR is going to be 5 stars! I'm usually wrong, but that's okay. A few weeks ago I shared... Continue Reading →

Books Under the Tree
Today I'm linking up with Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl and sharing the books that are going under the Christmas Tree tonight. I have a confession to make: I don't like owning books.

Books to Read This Winter
I love living in New Hampshire - long winters with short days mean that I don't have to feel guilty when I put the littles to bed early and then curl up on the couch with a book. That's so much harder to do when the days are long! The flowers and gardens are lovely... Continue Reading →
