Bookish Questions – Do you use a library?
Do you use a library? As a reader, I feel like a horrible human being when I admit that I haven’t had a library card in ages. Growing up, I lived in one of the few townships in my state that did not have library service, so if we wanted library cards, we had to…

Do you read ‘classics’? I don’t read anywhere near enough classic books, not since school. I’ve been too busy reading all the great new books coming out. Thanks to all of the free classics available for my Kindle app, I am trying to do a better job of reading them. I read several classic era…

It’s January again, and I’m so proud of myself for completing an entire year of posts about the books I’ve read. It’s been a great way for me to keep track of all those books, and to share my love of reading with all of you. With 2016 comes a new year and a new…

I’m not as good at singing as Julie Andrews, but that doesn’t mean I don’t have a few things in life that I absolutely love.

Just a little house cleaning for the 1st book post of the year. I’m changing the title from Booklr Questions to Bookish Questions, because booklr is very specific to Tumblr, and I want to be more inclusive with these posts. Also, if you have a bookish question for me, be sure to ask. Now for…
Read MoreBook It – Year’s End
The year has come to a close, so here’s a run down of how I did in meeting the 2015 Reading List from PopSugar. There were a total of 50 different categories to read a book in, so I decided right off the bat that I would need to mark each category a book fell…
