My Favorite Books
I love most of Emily Henry’s books but this one was so much more unexpected and fun to read! It is definitely one of those books that you wish you could read again for the first time.
Great Big Beautiful Life (Signed B&N Exclusive Edition)
I read this book in college and still think about it. The journey was completely different than any I had experienced before and at times confusing but just so fascinating in terms of the storytelling and the world and the history of the time period ...
One Hundred Years of Solitude: Classic Novel
I read this book because I wanted to watch the movie with Milo Ventimiglia… I never ended up watching the movie, because the book was so beautiful and heart wrenching. I just could not put myself through the journey again knowing it could not possibl...
The Art of Racing in the Rain (Paperback) by Garth Stein
If I had to pick a Sarah J. Maas series it would be this one. I love the world building and the character development that we get to experience. If you love fantasy you will love this book series.
Throne of Glass (Throne of Glass Series #1)|Paperback
I just love Emily Henry's stories; she writes such sweet and easy reads that make your heart feel happy. I continue to reread them because I just love the characters so much.
Book Lovers
Another really interesting fantasy series. This book starts the prequel which I prefer over the original. However, it was intended to be read after the current day series because it will introduce lots of spoilers. SO, if it sounds at all interesting...
A Shadow in the Ember (Flesh and Fire Series #1)
Another one, I am such an Emily Henry stan but they're just so good. They are exactly what I want in a romance novel. I've reread this three times. I find such comfort and understanding in her worlds.
Beach Read
I really love Katherine Center's writing. I love this FMC. I love the depiction of an eldest sibling and the sacrifices they may take on behalf of others especially their baby siblings. Reading this felt like watching a movie.
The Rom-Commers: A Novel
Children's Books
The sweetest book for bedtime reading.
Night-Night, Little Pookie by Sandra Boynton
WE love Sandra Boynton! Her writing is some of my favorite and my son always enjoys too!
What's Wrong, Little Pookie? - by Sandra Boynton (Board Book)
Perfect for invoking silly laughter and fun dancing to get the wiggles out before bedtime!
Dinosaur Dance! - By Sandra Boynton ( Board Book )
I love how this book can be a little sing-songy or you can really get into acting out the animal sounds!
Moo, Baa, LA LA LA ( Boynton Board Books) by Sandra Boynton
So silly and fun, includes a song the Hippos sing about their belly buttons!
Belly Button Book! by Sandra Boynton (Board Book)
I just love the watercolor illustrations; I love how resourceful Mason is and how it ignites a desire to get outdoors!
Mason Goes Mushrooming
I aspire to have all of Phoebe Wahl's books; they are so beautiful and sweet.
Little Witch Hazel: A Year in the Forest
YA Books
This was my favorite book for a while on my early reading journey— probably because my parent’s were divorced and none of my peers understood at the time. This book is full of adventure and spoke to that misunderstood piece of me.
Peak (Peak Marcello Adventure Series #1)
This is another book series I was absolutely obsessed with, I was reading it as they were released and I don’t know that I ever finished it but being raised on the Spy Kids movies definitely led to enjoying spy themed fiction.
I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I'd...
My mom bought this book for me when I was younger and I was not really into zombies or Jane Austen but I loved this book. I remember thinking that the heroine was so bad ass.
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies by Jane Austen ...
This is one of those cool books that as a teen really sold me when I saw the author shared each road trip playlist for the reader to listen to. I did in fact add them each to my Spotify so that I could be on the journey with Amy and Roger too.
