Good bye August and goodbye summer! I complain a fair bit, but here is one thing that I absolutely loved about this summer in Seattle. We only had maybe three days all told when it got above 90°.

Eight Books I Can’t Wait to Read This Fall
Wow. Apparently, this summer is over. September and back-to-school and all those markers heralding fall arrive next week.

Broke and Bookish does a wonderful link-up of Top Ten topics and this week it’s Top Ten Books I’m Looking Forward to for the First Half of 2017. A bit wordy, but you get the idea, right? Given that my reading at the end of 2016 has been as depressing and bad as the year itself I thought why not look forward to the new year in books? Thankfully, there are a number of ... Read More...
