Books Old & New: What I Read This Summer
Ahhhh, September 1st is here. There’s a chill in the air and the promise of fall is just around the corner. Or not, ya know…because I live in Florida. Here, it’s still 80 billion degrees every day. And since the calendar tells me that we’re […]
New Year, Same Me
In a few short hours, a new year…a new decade…will dawn. Is it really possible that it’s going to be 2020? All signs point to yes, but still. I have a hard enough time believing that the 90s weren’t just a decade ago, but 20 […]
August Reads: Simply Miraculous
It’s time for some August Reads, friends! Now, let’s be honest. Some months are better than others when it comes to the quality of books I read. Sometimes I share with you nothing but a rash of historical fiction. Sometimes, I’ll even admit to starting […]
July Reads: Two Heavy Hitters
Only two books on the July Reads list? Say it isn’t so! Yes, friends. I only got around to reading two books this month, but they were both heavy hitters in their own rights. One was an historical fiction novel that’s on all the must-read […]
June Reads: Good, Old-fashioned Summer Reading
It’s June. It’s summer. And, boy, did I read a lot of books that scratched that “summer reading” itch! All fiction, mostly historical, these books either teetered on the edge of racy or dove headlong into it. They also all had some sort of mystery […]
Spring Reads: Slightly Inspired and Moderately Good
Well, if that title for this Spring Reads post didn’t just grab you by the eyeballs and pull you in, I don’t know what will! Let’s just suffice it to say that the absolute reading bender that I went on in March totally sobered up […]
March Reads: Music to My Eyes
You guys! I read five whole books in March! I must admit that I’m fairly certain I won’t hit that number again any time soon, being as the end of the kids’ school year is fast approaching. Which, as you can guess, makes this mama […]
October Reads: Weighty Issues
I finished three books in October and they all were about some rather weighty material. Literal weight in one instance, and figuratively heavy topics in the other two. But I have to say…It has been a long time since two books in one month have […]
September Reads: Who knew I was boring?
Well, friends. It looks like I am a disgrace to the reading world. I only made it through 1.75 books this month. And I call myself a reader? Sheesh. Let’s just suffice it to say that the month of September kicked my behind clear into […]
August Reads: Three Books & Some Movies for Good Measure
Wowza, friends. I feel like I have consumed all the media this past month. While I haven’t kept up with the last two months’ four-book streak, I came in with a solid three and feel like that’s pretty respectable. I also watched some fabulous movies […]
