Is there anything so satisfying as crossing off a book that's been on your TBR for a long time? (Except for warm chocolate cake with a cold glass of milk, of course — nothing can beat that.) I did that this week! And while I was wrapping up the 800+ page brick that is The … Continue reading Reading Roundup #53: Solving for Love
One of my reading goals for 2022 is actually to slow down and take my time, instead of speeding through everything, and that's reflected in today's mini-roundup.

It's a bit of mixed bag this week, but all of these stories have one of my favorite things in … Continue reading Reading Roundup #45: The Art of Longing

And each of them handles it in a different way, by running, by pretending, or by marching straight ahead … Continue reading Reading Roundup #44: A Study in Secrets
Happy Monday! .... If there is such a thing. Frankly, I have my doubts, but if there's one thing that can always make a crummy day better, it's thinking about my favorite books. And since it's November, I'm already starting to think about some of my favorite winter rereads. Like many readers, I find comfort … Continue reading Four Annual Rereads
When I tell you this was a great week for reading, I mean it was a great week for reading. These books are about the lengths to which we'll go to protect ourselves and those important to us – and the people who are right there with us through it all. If you're looking for … Continue reading Reading Roundup #43: Sneakin’ Around With You
Ah-ha! Thought I was skipping the Roundup this week, did you? Well, I'm not! Honestly, I just got busy with work this week and forgot about it until today. But we're here now, and I'm happy to report it was a great week for reading. We've got a good dose of romance, of course, plus … Continue reading Reading Roundup #42: Fantasies Makes the World Go ‘Round
