Mondays aren't usually too happy for most people, but I'm hoping as today is Memorial Day, it means most of you are enjoying a long weekend. We're being very low key here in Seattle, but that's one of my favorite ways to go because it means more time for reading. Normally, I share what I’m reading and want to hear what you're reading, but this week is a bit different. My ... Read More...
April Reading Recap
Don't faint, but I'm not going to complain about my reading this month! Nope. Suffice it to say, April was a month of more highs than lows. It was also one for the record books. I read more non-fiction this month than I have all year. Thanks to super recommendations from bloggers I trust and the Seattle Public Library’s Peak Picks program (every branch has limited copies of ... Read More...
It’s Monday, April 2nd: What Are You Reading?
Good morning, lovely readers! A new week and a new month.

February has come and gone and it’s the first month in a long time that didn’t feel like it disappeared, which is nice for a change. It was also a month when the Seattle weather matched my reading—unpredictable, with sunny highs and cold lows, snow, high winds, thunder, sleet, hail…you name it. In both cases (reading and weather), I didn’t mind it too much except that the ... Read More...
Hollywood Women: The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo
The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo is catnip to anyone who loves old movies. In Evelyn, Taylor Jenkins Reid has created an amalgam of all the old glamor girls: Lana Turner and Elizabeth Taylor for their multiple marriages and off-screen shenanigans, Joan Crawford’s ruthlessness, Ava Gardner and Frank Sinatra…if you’ve read as many biographies of Hollywood stars as I have there ...
