Welcome to my weekly update for August 28, 2022! Three weeks in a row with no real adventures to report. This must be some sort of record for me! My husband has had to work a lot of call shifts recently so that ties us down within 30 minutes of the hospital. We’ll be out Continue Reading…
Completed Series That I Wish Had More Books
Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl invited us to share ten “completed series that I wish had more books” this week. I am a terrible series finisher.

Weekly Update for August 21, 2022
Welcome to my weekly update for August 21, 2022! We had another quiet week here. My husband is on call again this weekend so we have to stay within 30 minutes of the hospital.

Weekly Update for August 14, 2022
Welcome to my weekly update for August 14, 2022! This was a quiet week. My husband was on call at work last weekend and really just wanted to relax this weekend. I planned to read less last week so I could sort through all my Montana pictures (why take one picture when I can take Continue Reading…

Books That Awaken My Travel Bug
Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl invited us to share “books set in a place I’d love to visit” this week. This topic feels a bit too similar to Places in Books Where I’d Love to Live and Favorite Book Settings so I’m going to post about a topic I missed–books that awaken my travel Continue Reading…
Weekly Update for July 31, 2022
Welcome to my weekly update for July 31, 2022! My sister is here visiting this week so I’ll keep my post brief.

Apparently the name “Devil’s Tower” Continue Reading…
Books from Seasonal TBR Posts I Haven’t Read
Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl invited us to share “ten books from seasonal TBR posts I haven’t read.” I’m such a mood reader, I usually bow out of seasonal TBR (To Be Read) topics but I do have one to look back on. I have an affiliate relationship with Malaprop’s Bookstore/Cafe in beautiful Asheville, NC. I Continue Reading…

I’m from the southern Appalachian mountains, specifically the Blue Ridge mountains, and I love reading books set in my area. We have an abundance of natural-born storytellers so there are plenty to choose from. I’m limiting my choices to one book […]
