Monthly reviews and recommendations about books I am reading plus movies guides on various topics.
I love summer. I wish it were summer all year long. School is out, the beach, vacations, what’s not to love? I went to summer camp(s) every single summer growing up (and was even a counselor when I got older). Summer is my jam and that is why I made a movie guide featuring movies that take place during summer. I feel like I am missing a few important ones though. Please comment if you have a favorite summer movie I didn’t include.
Falling in Love with Love . . . February is one of the better months of the year because it is the shortest winter month, the Superbowl and Academy Awards are both held during, and I look good in red. Being that it is the month of love, I thought I would touch on the subject with another movie guide. The following movie guide is not totally focused on romance but instead on a movie genre I love . . . MUSICALS. Obviously, love is almost always the main focal point of a musical but the dancing and singing are the parts that make my heart swell.
Another great year of reading if I do say so myself but some books were definitely better than others. Here are the books I would consider the best reads of 2021. Each I rated either 4 or 5 stars! These are the books I read in 2021, not books necessarily published in 2021 though there are a number of new ones on this list. I hope you find your next great read after perusing. Here’s to making a must-read list for 2022!
I’m in a bit of a reading slump. Since it’s getting colder and the darkness starts earlier in the evening I’m getting some seasonal depression and I don’t want to do anything (even read – which is shocking!). I’ve been listening to audiobooks more and more. It’s a great way to get more books in but it takes me forever to finish a book this way. I’m a much faster reading on my Kindle. Below you’ll find my four book reviews for this month and I think I would recommend them all!
