We're traveling back in time a few different ways with today's featured book: A Distant Melody by Sarah Sundin. This historical fiction book is set during World War 2, and is the book that introduced me to Sundin, who instantly became one of my favorite authors.

It has become apparent that my TBR (to be read) list has gotten nearly out of hand. Therefore, I have decided to do a post featuring ten books from it approximately every other week.

It's time for a few quick and light book recommendations! Today I'm creating a virtual stack of books, each starting with a letter to spell out June. Each of these is a book that I have read, enjoyed, and gotten something meaningful out of, and I hope that one might catch your eye! This month's... Continue Reading →

I found this incredibly fun and unique tag over at The Comfy Reader and it was originally created by MeltingPotsAndOtherCalamaties. I wasn't tagged but I love everything about this tag so I am jumping in on it! Purr: As cats do when they're happy or relaxed, what is the book that makes you happiest or... Continue Reading →
Short-term reading challenges are a wonderful tool for helping readers stay on track with reading goals, tackle difficult books, and just have fun. With that in mind, I am taking on three reading challenges this summer. Two of these challenges are hosted by other book bloggers I follow, and the third is my local library's... Continue Reading →
