I’ve been lucky both in that Thanksgiving at my house has always

  • It seems like every time I make a TBR for the year (however large or small), I fall short of that goal. After all, I made one of these posts in January and failed miserably in following through. I’ve read a total of one (1) book on that list. Whoops. Hopefully I can do better

  • Top of the Wednesday to ya! Have I used that opening before? I don’t know. All I know is I’m using it today. Anyway, today’s topic is the top five best books we’ve read so far this year. Despite reading less content, I’ve read some great content. But what are the best books I’ve read?

  • Father’s Day is just around the corner and, as such, what better Top 5 Wednesday topic than our favorite fictional fathers and father figures! Trying to come up with answers for this made me realize how there really aren’t a lot of great father figures in media. At least not in the books I’ve read.
