Books, Writing, & The Cozy Life
Welcome to December! I have to admit that I'm becoming less Scrooge-like now that I have kiddos to help usher in the holiday season. And I have a secret to share with you: thanks to Spotify, I've been listening to Christmas music since before Halloween! It's safe to say that I'm very excited about Christmas... Continue Reading →
Today I'm linking up with Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl for a Top Ten Tuesday post, which I haven't done in forever! But it's a generic theme - thankful freebie - which I think I can manage! There are a million things that I'm thankful for every day - especially my family. I can't... Continue Reading →
I read for the atmosphere. If a book has that certain feel to it - I am hooked. Usually it's something that's inherently bookish - like libraries, coffee or tea, cobblestone streets, or ancient old-world vampires. You know. The usual. So read on for what makes my heart go pitter-patter!! A Leather Satchel The Clockmaker's... Continue Reading →
It's hard to narrow down this list to just 10 books! My TBR runneth over and my book slump is starting to fade, so you know what that means... let the manic spring reading season begin!

I feel like the list is ever-expanding and link-ups like this don't help me exercise much self control!! I recently discovered Marilynne Robinson and I'm ready to devour her, despite...

It's Tuesday! Thanks to That Artsy Reader Girl for hosting this weekly link-up. This week's topic is probably the easiest yet: books that I meant to read last year but didn't get to! 2018 was a slow reading year for me, so there were a ton of books that I would have loved to tackle....

It's time for Top Ten Tuesday! Thanks to That Artsy Reader Girl for hosting this weekly link-up. This week's topic is New to Me Authors that I read in 2018. Last year feels like a lost year, so I'm glad that I keep my notebook of books that I've read, otherwise I'd have no chance... Continue Reading →
Hi everyone! Today is a freebie Top 10 Tuesday with Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl. I loved last week's category - Cozy/Wintry Reads - but I've had a hard time getting much reading in lately because of life. Instead, today I'm focusing on cozy things that have brought me little bouts of joy throughout... Continue Reading →
