Books That Came My Way in August 2016
Where did August go? I feel like every night for the past month, I fell into bed and wondered where the day had gone. Most nights I went to bed feeling frustrated because I didn’t get the things done that I wanted to accomplish that day. These same thoughts go along with my reading as…

I’ve been catching up on my reading this month, reading four adult books and five children’s books just this month. Not bad since I also have most of my house under construction and am living in complete disarray. Just when I think I can set aside some time to read, something comes up and my…

Starting this week, I can finally see what I was hoping my Summer would look like. My days are no longer jam-packed with meetings or places I need to be. I started the summer traveling to Canada with our high school band, then after we returned I had a lot to catch up on at…

I wasn’t expecting May to be as busy as it turned out to be. Out of twenty days that we had school, I subbed fourteen of those days, when at the end of April I was only scheduled for five. The end of the school year is also busy with concerts, track meets, banquets, and…

Holy buckets! I got a lot of books this month both for review and purchase. I bought several books for gifts this month and a few for myself. A lot of my review books are heavy in the children’s book genre which is great! They are quicker for me to read and review and I…

I spent a little time last month reading some books from my own bookshelf as well as ones waiting to be reviewed. I participated in the #5books7dayschallenge with @lottelikesbooks on Instagram and even though I didn’t accomplish my goal, I finished a book I had started before the challenge, finished one complete book from the…

I’m back into a reading flow after finishing some great books during our Christmas getaway. I’ve done a lot better using spare minutes to read rather than waste time on my phone. I also have some books I’m really anxious to read which gives me a push to finish the ones I’m currently reading. I…
Read More Books That Came My Way in December
December was a crazy busy month and I barely had time to answer emails let alone accept books for review. But, a few arrived and I’m happy to share them with you below. I am hoping for a bit slower pace in January and maybe even a few snow days to be completely lazy and…

November ended up being even busier than I expected. Of the 18 days school was in session, I subbed 12 of them. Then I also had other commitments on my free days and traveled a couple times as well. I had very little reading time over the last month and it has continually frustrated me.…
