Hello Readers! Happy New Year! First a little life update… December was a whirlwind for me. We took a fast and furious last minute trip to New York City when my husband needed to go for work (I’ve included a few highlights below)—which meant I didn’t decorate or shop for Christmas until I returned. A …

After visiting New York, my husband gifted me a subscription to The Strand’s The Book HookUp. We’d visited New York City for the first time at Christmas in 2018, stopping in at The Strand bookstore, of course, so it was the perfect gift. What I love about this subscription is that it’s quarterly, so not …

Hello Readers! November was a struggle for me. I participated in my 9th NaNoWrimo (National Novel Writing Month), but once again I was a #NaNoRebel, working on an existing project, which is never as fun as creating something new and shiny. I sludged through, wrapping up a day early, desperate to be done. BUT, I …

Hello Readers! Much like my October TBR, I have big dreams for my November TBR, which is a mixed bag of sorts. I still need to finish so many books before we get to December, the month I try to always reserve for purely seasonal reads. AND I’m participating in Nanowrimo this month. So I …
