Today is the last day of July, and the heat cannot leave soon enough for me! It's been an unusual but generally enjoyable summer, but I am completely ready for cooler temperatures, cozy aesthetics around town, pumpkin spice, and school. I don't think I have ever been this excited for school to start - almost... Continue Reading →
On Saturday, July 25, I achieved my goal of reading 60 books in 2020!! I am so glad that I got this finished before school starts next month (somehow orientation being this Saturday seems both way too soon and not soon enough!). I wanted to have a little fun to celebrate, so I'm doing the... Continue Reading →
Hello from a Tuesday morning, Readers! One of my favorite indie authors, Kellyn Roth, is in the process of re-launching her book series The Chonicles of Alice and Ivy, and today I get to tell you about the second book in the series. This book just became available, and the premise has me sucked in completely.... Continue Reading →
This is an exciting week, because I get to talk about two new releases by independent authors who I support wholeheartedly! Then, I'll have a just for fun post on Wednesday (possibly a tag?), my review of The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes on Friday, and I attend orientation for graduate school on Saturday. That's a lot for my literary heart to be happy about!

As we're nearly halfway through Summer, this seemed an ideal time to share this song with y'all! For the same reason, it's time for me to check in on... Continue Reading →
I hope you had a wonderful weekend, Readers! I managed a three-day weekend for Fourth of July this year, and while it was not what I anticipated when I first found out I would have three days off, it was definitely good. Last week things became very stressful at work, and being able to be both physically and mentally separated from that environment for a few days was restorative. Many of the reasons for last week's stress do carry over into this week, but I'm hopeful that everyone involved had a chance to relax this weekend and will come back into the situation with a little more peace and perspective.
Happy Friday, Readers! The book I'm reviewing today has some parts that are very difficult to read due to the content, but I enjoyed learning about the Pack Horse Librarians very much. There really is a lot to unpack with this one.

Taking another dive into my TBR list today! I have gone through so many books already, but my list is still unbearably large. Looks like there are some classics in today's batch, as well as some children's books and at least one that I have no idea what it is. Read on to find out more!
