Hello Readers! I’ve just returned from my first trip to Moab, Utah. If you’ve never been, I highly recommend it. It’s home to several state and national parks. My husband went to Moab to mountain bike with a group of friends, so we tagged along and turned it into a vacation. However, that didn’t leave …

August 2022 Monthly Wrap-Up
Hello Readers! August was a mixed bag for us. My husband and son had their first bout of Covid, my oldest daughter returned home from an amazing month-long trip to SΓ£o Paulo, Brazil, my middle child turned 21, and my youngest started dual credit classes (online this semester) through the local community college. And amid …
July 2022 Monthly Wrap-Up
Hello Readers! July was a busy month for me. It also included a quick trip to the beach with extended family. I had planned on reading at least one or two books, but I ended up reading zilch. Oops. At least it was a fun and relaxing trip, but my lack of reading almost had …
June 2022 Monthly Wrap-Up
Hello Readers! I hope you’re well and safe. It’s getting scary out there, but we’re just gonna talk about books today, okay? That’s about all my brain can handle at the moment. If you look back at My June TBR, you’ll see I kept my plan light to allow for some mood reading off my …
May 2022 Monthly Wrap-Up
Hello Readers! While I had a great reading month in May, I still didn’t make it to two of the backlist books I’d placed on My May TBR—thanks to Emily Henry’s latest book (which I can’t believe I forgot to include on my TBR) and a last minute ARC I needed to get to. I’ve …
April 2022 Monthly Wrap-Up & Book Haul
Hello Readers! The beginning of April feels so long ago but at the same time the month seemed to fly by! I spent the month participating in Camp NaNoWriMo. I’ve been working on a previous Nano project, which I spent the month continuing to edit. I didn’t get as much accomplished as I’d hoped, but …
March 2022 Monthly Wrap-Up
Hello Readers! I hope March was good to you. I’m back to splitting up my Wrap-Up and Haul because I had an amazing reading month and added too many new books to my shelves to combine them. Mostly I’m excited that I read five backlist books, four of them romance!! I also read a few …
February 2022 Monthly Wrap-Up & Book Haul
Hello Readers! I spent the last few days of the month scrambling to finish up two books for review, so my end of the month posts are running a bit behind. Which is why I’m combining my Wrap-Up and Haul again. I apologize for the lengthy post. π Considering I spent most of the month …
January 2022 Monthly Wrap-Up & Book Haul
Hello Readers! I haven’t been able to combine my wrap-up and haul since May of last year, but I finally read more than I added to my shelves. π I don’t know if it was just me, but it felt like January had a few extra weeks. But I wasn’t complaining. Due to the resurgence …
December 2021 Monthly Wrap-Up
Hello Readers! I had big reading plans for the month of December. Unfortunately, life became too busy and my reading got pushed to the back-burner. If only I could have a few more weeks to enjoy my seasonal reads before I have to return to the 2022 ARCs demanding my attention. π I ended up …
