I was looking for a spring read with lots of vivid imagery, and Anne of Green Gables did not disappoint. Over the years I have seen so many quotes from this book, and a lot of book vloggers were recommending it as a good spring read, so I ordered a gorgeous copy of the Puffin [...]
Today I’m talking about a book I recently finished, “The Storyteller” by Dave Grohl. This was a phenomenal autobiography with lots of emotional intelligence and class while still showing the real side of life as a super famous rock ‘n roll musician.

Hello, I have returned! I have been extremely busy as a full-time work-from-home mom. I have been focusing on spending the little downtime I do have reading, with my daughter, and on my own. I honestly was struggling to think of where I wanted to go with my blog, so for a year, I posted [...]

I recently finished Mindy Kaling's second book, "Why Not Me?" As a fan of the actress and television writer, I got a kick out of her first book, "Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me?" I picked up her second non-fiction piece a couple months ago, and finally got around to reading it. I finished it [...]
