A Little Ray of Sunshine
Welp Kristan Higgins did it again, she made me cry, and I’m pretty upset by it. People told me this one would be lighter, so I read it on my flight up to New York last week. It’s a good thing I had a window seat and nobody next to be because I was bawling…
June 2023 Most Anticipated
While summer doesn’t officially start until June 21st, summer break is upon us as we enter June. Not that that matters when you’re an adult, but it does mean beach trips, lake trips, pool days, and sunny days are about to fill everyone’s time. I’ll be the first to admit to being an extreme mood…

Halfway through the first month of 2023, and it’s time to look forward to all the new releases hitting shelves in February. January and February are my favorite time of the year to read, since it’s normally the coldest months of the year, it’s the perfect time to curl up on the couch and binge…
Better Than Fiction
After the death of her grandmother, Drew Young is now the new somewhat proud owner of The Book Nook. While she’s a self-proclaimed ‘book hater’ and non-reader, she adores the shop and sees it as her duty to carry on her grandmother’s dream. The only caveat is that she’s struggling to not only keep the…
Now is Not the Time to Panic
“The edge is a shantytown filled with gold seekers, we are the new fugitives, and the law is skinny with hunger for us.” I love Kevin Wilson’s writing. If you have never read one of his books just know that ‘Quirky’ is the best way to describe them. I always find his books perfect to…
