If you’re like me, when you pull up Netflix your mind blanks and you might spend an hour sifting through options listlessly until finally settling on something.

Don’t be ashamed. We’ve all been there. A reading slump can last days, weeks, months and even YEARS. You’re just NOT in the mood to read.

We’re already a full month into 2017! We’ve hopefully adjusted to writing the new date, we’ve learned that people are going to keep right on dying in the new year and we’ve abandoned at least one resolution by now. What a year so far! How have you been doing on your reading goals? I…

My Thoughts Favorite Reread: My favorite reread this year was the Harry Potter series, without question. I love revisiting old favorites, but it had been far too long since I’d come back to HP and my whole being was craving it. I’m right at the end of The Deathly Hallows right now and will finish…
The official start of winter is right around the corner, so get to the bookstore or library and pick up some of these ahead of time so you can curl up with some hot chocolate and never leave the house again!! I don’t know about you, but when winter rolls around I get…
Well folks, there’s only one month left in 2016. What kind of a reading year have you had? This was the first year in which I’ve taken the time to make reading goals. Not only has it made me a more productive reader, but it’s also enhanced my love of reading in a way I…
