The holiday season is upon us and that can mean a lot of extra time for reading! Thankfully, I am a person who is able to read as a passenger in the car because I hate driving. Whether you are flying, driving, or relaxing at home I hope you find the perfect book(s) to keep you entertained. Below are my four book reviews for this month.

I’ve definitely had some time to read these past few weeks. We brought our newborn home and my older children quickly came down with pneumonia, RSV, and COVID so I am isolating in our lower level with the baby. Below are the books I reviewed for October including a simple, cute romance perfect to read around Halloween.

Below you will find some of our favorite children’s picture books about fall. Celebrate the changing of the seasons and what autumn brings.
