On My Bedside {House of Salt and Sorrows}

January 20, 2021January 13, 2021

Craig was a mesmerizing, evocative story that I very much enjoyed.  It’s a take on the old Twelve Dancing Princesses fairytale. Here, twelve beautiful sisters live together on… Read More

On My Bedside {The Glass Castle & Educated}

January 7, 2021January 8, 2021

I recently finished up two similar memoirs, both similar in nature: The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls and Educated by Tara Westover. The Glass Castle Of the two, The Glass Castle was my favorite. Before I go too far, it’s hard to call one of these a “favorite”. They aren’t lighthearted enjoyable reads, but I… Read More

Listening Lately {The Silent Patient}

November 24, 2020November 14, 2020

On My Bedside {Eligible}

September 15, 2020September 15, 2020

I was so excited when my neighbor loaned me her favorite book! I’d be excited to read anyone’s favorite book, truth be told. By the end of the first chapter, I was hooked on Eligible by Curtis Sittenfeld!! It is a modern retelling of Pride and Prejudice and a fun, lighthearted easy read. This version… Read More

On My Bedside {Refugee}

September 3, 2020September 3, 2020

I have enjoyed so many incredible books thanks to my kids’ literature and social studies teachers. The most recent was Refugee by Alan Gratz.
