I can’t believe August is over already! I finished twenty books this month, which is tied with March as my biggest reading month so far this year. I managed to read eight non-fiction and twelve fiction, which is closer to the 50/50 goal I made […]
July was one of my slower reading months of the year. I’ve been in an audio book funk lately, I started a few and then quit after an hour or less. Still, I read some great books this month and knocked out my first Jane […]
Beach Read by Emily Henry Absolutely brilliant, I loved everything about this book! Emily Henry has great skill at relaying real world emotions in her characters. January is a best-selling romance author who has suffered a great loss and no longer believes in happy endings. […]

The first month of 2020 was was a good one for me! I finished fifteen books. Only five of those were non-fiction, which isn’t quite at my 50/50 goal I have for the new year. But it’s a little better than my 25% average in […]
