May is over? Are we sure? The last time I looked it was the 13th. Thankfully, all the gorgeous flowers and colors here were a distraction from what was another month of meh reading. It would seem I’m getting crankier as I age because I’ve already DNFed 13 books this year, almost as many as I did for all of 2022—and we’re only at the halfway point. I do have some bright ...

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...

This could be due, in part, to the fact that I overcommitted on books to read for March. Where I might normally push through on a book (and sometimes be rewarded with a turnaround) I had to jettison anything that wasn’t ... Read More...
February Reading Wrap-Up
February was a month of extremes. I either held onto a book for dear life or dropped it like a bad habit. There was no middle ground. Thankfully, the majority of what I read was outstanding with 6 of the 11 novels I read being 4 stars or higher. DNFs are painful, but that disappointment aside, it was a great month. This was definitely a case of my bored mind ... Read More...
January Reading Wrap-Up
What a month! By and large January had mostly great reading, but there were some real misses. I reviewed the books I enjoyed so this recap is going to be a bit less upbeat with the books I didn’t love. One in particular is a heartbreaker. Either I read far too much or Reef Road was not the thriller for me because I can’t remember much about it at all. Set in Palm ... Read More...
