The final 22 list of the year – 22 Books I Want to Read. I have the worst track record with making a TBR pile, but I will always hold out hope that I’ll complete one. And I’ve already read one of them, so that’s a great sign! The Orphan Collector by Ellen Marie Wiseman… Continue reading 22 Books I Want to Read in 22

Top 5 Reads in 2021
I read a lot of filler in 2021, but I also read a few of what have become my favorite books of all time. I don’t like reading long book reviews – they seem to give too much away. So here are my top 5 reads of 2021 reviewed in 5 sentences (or less). The… Continue reading Top 5 Reads in 2021
My Fall Reading List
This fall, I’m sticking with a “to-be-read” list of 5. Ten books seems like too many books for this year. Well, books that aren’t historical romances from Kindle Unlimited, anyway. Sun Down Motel by Simone St. James I’ve read every other book by Simone St. James, and I can’t believe it’s taken me this long… Continue reading My Fall Reading List
My Favorite Books From the Last 6 Months
I’ve actually been reading this year (not enough for my Goodreads challenge, but that’s beside the point), so I wanted to look at my favorite books from the first 6 months of 2020. Non-Fiction If You Tell: A True Story of Murder, Family Secrets, and the Unbreakable Bond of Sisterhood by Gregg Olsen This book… Continue reading My Favorite Books From the Last 6 Months
Reading Through A List of Authors My Mom Left Behind
The day my mom passed, I was standing in my parents’ kitchen aimlessly looking around. Under a magnet on their secondary freezer, I saw a couple sheets of notepad paper entitled “Grocery Author List”. I snuck it into my pocket as if my dad wouldn’t have let me have it if I had asked. I… Continue reading Reading Through A List of Authors My Mom Left Behind
Summer Time Reading List
Summer starts on Saturday! I wasn’t going to post this until Friday, but I’m more interested in this than whatever else I was going to write this week. I am a huge mood reader, so reading lists are generally not very useful for me. However, I love making them. Right now, I’m really into space… Continue reading Summer Time Reading List

Most Anticipated Releases for the First Half of 2019
The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides I love a good mystery and this one looks like a great one. Who doesn’t want to know why a woman shoots her husband in the face and then never speaks again? The Au Pair by Emma Rous The comparison to VC Andrews is enough to make me want… Continue reading Most Anticipated Releases for the First Half of 2019
Best Books I Read In 2018
Happy New Year! I hope that 2019 is the best year yet. I realized while making this list that I read very few books I really loved in 2018. I can do better in 2019. Obviously not every book I read will be a winner, but I can definitely choose books that are more likely… Continue reading Best Books I Read In 2018
My Top Ten on My Winter TBR
Top Ten Tuesday is a feature currently run by That Artsy Reader Girl. Usually, I don’t really look at these TBR lists after making them, but I feel like this is a pretty accurate representation of what I’m going to be reading over the next couple of months. Especially Terminal World, I’ve been reading it off… Continue reading My Top Ten on My Winter TBR
