This is a very long overdue blog post. The end of April was a true whirlwind with travel for a friend’s wedding, then travel for work, and finally a stop over in Los Angeles where I attended Yallwest. And of course, no whirlwind travel would be complete without coming home and getting horrendously sick. So,…

I promise I’m trying to be better about updating this, but life has been incredibly busy lately. I finally have a few minutes, so I’m just going to stream-of-conscious talk about book stuff for a bit. 🙂 February was an okay reading month. I re-read a book from my childhood (A Horse Called Wonder by…

January reading wrap up is here! I honestly can’t believe I read 9 books this month. January felt like it went on forever, but also felt like a faster January than usual. It’s been unseasonably cold where I live, and I’ll admit I used Libby to get so many of these read. Without further ado,…
