Goodbye, July. It was a busy month of travel, family reunion, and not-so-fun adulting, but overall there was some great reading to be had amongst the gorgeous weather here in Seattle. I’m sorry for you lovelies who struggled with sweltering. One week in Colorado in the 90s was enough to make me overjoyed to return to days in the 70s and nights in the 50s. My favorite kind of ...

June Reading Recap
This June recap is a little special. Monday, July 3rd, is my mother’s 85th birthday and I want to give her the biggest shout-out I can because aside from being a wonderful mother, this blog, the podcast, my career as a librarian, none of it would have happened without her passion for books. She’s the lovely high schooler in the photo above and my love of reading is one of the ... Read More...

April Reading Recap
What to say about my April reading? Not much, as it felt like a very blah month. I only finished 11 books, I DNFed 3, and I no 4 or 5 star ratings among the new releases I read. What's happening?! My reading may have been off because there was so much fun stuff going on in real life. My brother visited from Ohio and my best friend who I haven’t seen in six years was here from ... Read More...
What I’m Reading This Week
Hello, lovely readers! No book review today, just a bit of truth telling and a quick update. As you know, in addition to Gilmore Guide to Books I’m also a recurring co-host on the podcast Sarah’s Bookshelves Live. On both platforms I try to read and review not just entertaining books, but those on subjects that may not get the attention they deserve. Subjects where ... Read More...
