    Book Review: My Wild and Precious Life

    June 10, 2020 /

    Today’s book review is of the book My Wild and Precious Life. It is Susanne Rheault’s memoir and I found it so interesting. Her writing is so good and her life is so interesting and full that I was captivated from start to finish. Rheault’s memoir starts with her childhood, moving to different countries with her family and Green Beret father. She writes about her parents and upbringing, her roots in New England, and her thrill seeking military father. Rheault gets olde, earns her Ph.D, starts a family and her life, which is already interesting by the way, takes a turn when she is widowed at 44. But, Rheault doesn’t stop there…

    Book Review: The View from Apartment Four

    May 15, 2020 /

    Happy Friday! This was one of those weeks where I’m not sure if it went by fast or slow. It was also one of those weeks that I couldn’t remember what day of the week it was. During my lunch breaks while working form home I’ve been getting a lot of my reading done. My most recent read has been on my tbr list for months, The View from Apartment Four: On Loving and Leaving New York by Skip Rozin. In this book, Skip Rozin tells of his life experiences, professional and personal, from the 1960s to the 2010s all while his apartment on the Upper West Side of New York…

    Book Review: Almost French

    October 25, 2017 /

    The full title of this book is Almost French: Love and a New Life in Paris and it’s by Sarah Turnbull, an Australian journalist who moves to France. When browsing through Good Reads I came across this book and it intrigued me as I do enjoy reading memoirs and about people’s real lives. This story about a 20 something year old Australian woman who meets a French guy while she was abroad in Bucharest and then in a whirlwind romance goes back to France with him to live seemed too good to pass up. I liked the book but didn’t love it and I really wanted to love it. The premise…

    Book Review: Scrappy Little Nobody

    May 6, 2017 /

    Being a fan of Anna Kendrick, I knew I wanted to read her book Scrappy Little Nobody when she announced it. I enjoy her work (Pitch Perfect, Into the Woods, etc.) and find her hilarious on Twitter so I had a feeling I’d enjoy reading about her life. As I predicted, I really enjoyed this book. I find memoirs and autobiographical essays really fun and quick reads because you’re getting personal stories and insight into a person you already like or admire. Plus, these books don’t tend to be too long so they’re nice to just read for fun. Anna wrote various stories from her life ranging from her childhood in Maine…

The Do-Over by @lynnpainterkirkle follows high sch The Do-Over by @lynnpainterkirkle follows high school junior, Emilie. Emilie is smart, friendly, and always follows the rules. Having divorced parents that fight more often than they pay attention to her, Emilie has lived her life trying to be highly organized and never cause any problems. She plans the perfect Valentine’s Day for her and her bf, Josh, but the entire day is a disaster and includes finding out Josh is cheating. Wanting nothing more than for February 14 to be over, she is not happy to find out she is living in a time loop and every morning is Valentine’s Day all over again. After multiple repeat days with nothing changing, she decides to have a DONC - Day of No Consequences - where she will do and say whatever she wants. Going along with her on the DONC? Her grumpy chem partner, Nick. 💗📚🗓️

I loved this book! It was so adorable. Emilie was such a good character and I loved all the days she spent with Nick, even if he didn’t remember. Such a cute book! My full review is on the blog ✨📖

I like reading a good thriller every once in a whi I like reading a good thriller every once in a while, but I don’t naturally gravitate towards them. So when I tell you I was hooked on Dark Obsessions by @marie.sutro , it’s a big deal! 📖

Dark Obsessions is the second book in the Kate Barnes series, but can be read as a stand-alone. While Kate is on leave from the San Francisco Police Department, she goes to a small town in Washington State to try to get some closure with her estranged mother. While there, a gruesome murder is discovered and the sheriff asks Kate to help him investigate. Their investigation uncovers an ever larger and more sinister crime ring. 🕵🏻‍♀️

The story was so good and I loved Kate and Tony (the sheriff). My only critique is that it was a little long, but that didn’t stop me from reading because I needed to know the ending! My full review is on the blog ✨

Finale was a great ending to the Caraval series. I Finale was a great ending to the Caraval series. It picked up right where Legendary left off and I loved being back in the magical world of Caraval ✨. 

The Fates have been released from the Deck of Destiny and the worst of them all - The Fallen Star - has taken Scarlett. Now they need to all work together to save Scarlett. I loved the book! I just wish I could’ve spent more time with Tella, Legend, Scarlett, and Julian!! 💖😍📚My full review is on the blog ✨
