I’m not sure I remember a time when it was so hard to think about reading, but the past two weeks have been hectic enough that I’m mentally and physically frazzled. Last week was my first trip to Ann Arbor—touring neighborhoods and looking at houses. While parts of it were fun (so much good food!) house hunting is exhausting—and it’s only beginning. All of which means focusing ... Read More...
Winter 2019 Books I’m Ready to Read
Week one back in the real world! How is everyone holding up after the holidays? Once again, I had a quiet time of it which was welcome considering what lies ahead in 2019. Nothing bad, just change. What hasn't changed is that I'm ready to get back to review reading. I enjoyed my time off in December when I read backlist books from the library (it was divine!), but now it's time ... Read More...

Once again, I’m one of the last of the bloggers to weigh in on the best books of the year. The great news is that, unlike last year, which was a bleak year for my reading, this year was much better. My ten best books are all from 2018—no backlist! They’re a varied lot, ranging from mythology to miracles to food to marriage. The only constant in the majority of them is humor. ... Read More...
Best Debuts of 2018
Wow. Another year gone. It’s time to raise the curtain and let the best debuts of 2018 take their bows. It may not have been the easiest year for my reading, but once again debut authors gave me a lot of happy. If you're stuck on a gift for the reader in your life, all of these came out earlier in the year so should be available at your local book store. Plus, they're on a ... Read More...
