Book 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…
Read MoreBooklr Questions – Where is your favorite place to read?
Where is your favorite place to read? I hate to be a cliche, but my favorite place to read is probably in the tub. I’m a big fan of a nice warm bubble bath and a good book. Now if I could just figure out how to avoid getting my books wet. What’s you favorite…

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…

I have used affiliate links for the books in this post. I’ve made it almost 3 months into my goal of reading more this year. I’m so glad I stumbled on that 2015 Reading List from PopSugar. It has made me pick up several books that I otherwise would never have considered, which is great…
