I’m back dating this post to Friday, January 10, but truth be told I completely forgot to write it. This is crunch time as far as working on the musical goes (we’re three and a half weeks away!), and my brain is not at full functioning capacity at the moment (unless you need me to identify whose shirt is who from a pile of exactly matching shirts). December was the month of Lisa Jewell. I read not one, but FOUR […]

Despite having a very busy month, I managed to squeeze in a number of books thanks to a sick day and Thanksgiving break. Let’s get right into it shall we? The Family Upstairs, by Lisa Jewell was SO GOOD. I’ve read a few of Jewells books before and liked them, but none so much as this one. It was a creepy psychological thriller with three narrators who alternated chapters. They are connected to each other, that much is obvious going […]

My goal when October started was to read five books. When the month began, I had fifteen left to reach my goal for the year. I knew going in that this would be a tough goal to meet, and I was right. I managed to get through three of the five, and about halfway through a fourth (but that one doesn’t count since I haven’t finished it yet!). The first book I read was The Fountains of Silence, by Ruth […]

I knew going into September that it wasn’t going to be a big reading month. There’s so much going on in my life at the moment that I was honestly surprised that I managed to eke out two books in the end! First up was The Paris Seamstress, by Natasha Lester. I bought this book back in mid-summer and somehow managed to leave it in the trunk of my car for about five weeks before actually reading it. I initially […]

August was not quite as productive as July as far as reading goes (however, I surprised myself with sewing, as you’ll see in Friday’s post!). I managed to add three more books to my reads of the year, bringing the total to thirty-three books. My goal is fifty… but with Frozen costuming starting this month, I don’t know if I’ll make it there. We shall see. First up, we had The Turn of the Key by Ruth Ware. I was […]

I love summer vacation for three main reasons: 1.) lots of time to visit my niece and nephew, 2.) sewing, and 3.) reading. And read I did this July, making up for the months with only two books this year. Hey, I pledged to read 50 before the year is up. Given what I did this month, I may just get there! Though I read a number of books, I’m going to count six of them in one group as […]

School’s out! June was a doozy of month to get there though and as a result I read only two books. I definitely chose sewing over books at the end of the month once summer vacation started – it feels so good to sew for myself again! (But we’ll get to that in Friday’s June Makes post…) Both of the books I read were recent Book of the Month Club selections. I’m very behind on those, but that doesn’t stop […]

We’ve reached the end of May and the beginning of June which means it’s time for another edition of “What I Read!” Despite this month being insanely busy, I managed to eke out a few books. First up was Pretty Girls Dancing, by Kyle Brant. This book was one of my Kindle first selections, so I got it for free at the beginning of the month at some point or another. It’s been in my kindle for a long time, […]

It’s time for another edition of “What I Read!” This month, because I spent so much time on airplanes and in airports and on buses the last week and a half of April, I have five books to discuss! Let’s just jump right in. The first book was Always, by Sarah Jio. I consider her books guilty pleasures. They are crazy easy to read and super predictable. However, I eat them up whenever I get one. I was late to […]
