  • Happy middle of November! I can’t believe that we’re already in the middle of November, which means Thanksgiving is just around the corner. Do you celebrate Thanksgiving? What are you doing this year? I’m already thinking about ours and planning a super low key Thanksgiving with me and my husband. Instead of the traditional meal,…

  • How I Make the Time to Read

    If you’re a huge fan of reading like I am, then you want to spend as much time as you can possibly muster into reading your book. You carry it with you everywhere you go. You open your e-reader app on your phone whenever you’re forced to wait anywhere. You might even create a space…

  • It’s finally starting to cool down in Southern California which makes me want to reach for something fun and light-hearted to read while I’m bundled up in blankets and a pumpkin spiced rooibos tea. It’s also great because today’s another publishing day and the choices this week are phenomenal. I can’t wait to check these…

  • October 2020 Bookish Wrap Up

    It might be a week late, but I’m finally done writing about the books I read in October. While my brain is still a little mushy from the events happening in the United States, I was able to accomplish many of the goals I set up for myself. I read my fantasy books. I doubled…

  • Feel Good Friday // No. 2

    Happy Friday! I took the week off from writing and sharing content with you mostly because I’ve been a little out of sorts.

  • Small Things You Can Do For the Fall Season

    If you live in an area of the world where you don’t see the foliage, or watch the seasons change, or your weather never dips too far below 55 degrees F, then this is the post for you. My whole life, I’ve lived in New York where the trees turn russet colors and the chill…

  • Happy Pub Day! While I didn’t get enough sleep last night and kind of feeling it this morning, I’m excited that it’s publishing Tuesday. Perhaps I’ll treat myself to a couple of these since I didn’t get to sleep all that much and probably could use a book or two before bed. Here’s my picks…

  • Peanut Butter and Jelly Cookies – Fall Edition

    I’m so thankful that the weather is finally subsiding and I can bake. I try not to bake too much because my husband has a sweet tooth and that usually means that baked goods last less than a day in my house. But I love filling the house with scent of spices and that warm…

  • Ah, another glorious morning with some great books being published that I can’t not talk about! I’m actually very excited about today’s pub day because there’s some really great stories on my TBR that are also on this list. Some I’m reading this month and others in the coming months ahead. Here’s what I’m excited…
