Booklr Questions – Do you have any signed books?

Do you have any signed books? I don’t currently own any books that are signed by the author, however several of the books in my collection are inscribed to me. And for some reason those inscriptions mean more to me than any author’s signature ever could. That isn’t to say that there are a few…

Booklr Questions – What was the last book you read?

What was the last book you read? The last book I finished reading was The Hundred-Foot Journey by Robert C. Morias. I didn’t know this book existed until I saw trailers for the film. I always find books to be better than their movies- there’s only so much you can get into a 2-hour film…

I can’t believe it’s almost the end of May already. Where has this year gone? I feel like I’ve lost days or even weeks inside the pages of a book, but I’m not sure that’s a bad thing.  I’m managing to knock a few more items off my checklist, and even get through my pile…

A Little Free Library

I’ve wanted to have a Little Free Library since I first heard about them a few years ago. But something has always seemed to be in the way of having one – the biggest issue was having a location.  I live in a heavily trafficked area, which is good for a LFL, but being on…

Book It

4 months into my goal of reading more this year, and I’m discovering many amazing books I never would have chosen otherwise. (You can see the goals for my reading list on the 2015 Reading List from PopSugar.) I’ve been reading so much, that I had to re-arrange my shelves in the living room to…
