Like many of my ideas for posts, I can not take full credit for this idea. I saw a YouTuber do something similar and thought it sounded interesting. Kind of my own personal reading goal to see how many of these I can get to in the next year. Now I did turn 26 in... Continue Reading →
Top Books I’ve Read in 2024 (So Far)
I don't know if anyone else feels this way but man am I struggling to comprehend how we are somehow already in July. I say this every year but I just feel like as I get older, each year goes by quicker and quicker. 2024 has been a year of decent reads so far. I... Continue Reading →

Weekly Book Review 3/12 – 3/18
Title: Maame Author: Jessica George My Rating: ⭐⭐ Why I gave this rating: If you took away how this book was written, it could’ve been an ok book. But the way it was written ruined it for me. It starts the chapter as a typical storyline but then you throw in her Google searches, Google... Continue Reading →
Weekly Book Review 3/5 – 3/11
Title: The People We Keep Author: Allison Larkin My Rating: ⭐ Why I gave this rating: I’m sure this is a great book but as soon as they had the 16 year old start a relationship with a 27 year old, I couldn’t read anyone. Kind of a bummer cause was enjoying it until till... Continue Reading →
Weekly Book Review 2/26 – 3/4
Title: The Light Pirate Author: Lily Brooks-Dalton My Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ Why I gave this rating: I was confused for a good majority of this book. It was dystopian but like dystopian meets weather? Felt like sci-fi but add in climate change and hurricanes. Was just kind of lost the entire time. Title: Under Her Care... Continue Reading →
Weekly Book Review 2/19 – 2/25
Title: My Body Author: Emily Ratajkowski My Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Why I gave this rating: If you asked me or many others who Emily Ratajkowski was, I think many of us would say who? Oh, you mean the supermodel who danced naked in that Blurred Lines video. That’s all anyone really knows about her and she’s... Continue Reading →

Title: The Investigator Author: John Sandford My Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ Why I gave this rating: This style of action/thriller isn’t really my favorite. It’s great for fans of James Patterson or Lee Child but I always struggle to get into these kinds of books. The one plus of this series vs others is the main character... Continue Reading →
Weekly Book Review 2/5 – 2/11
Title: Finding Me Author: Viola Davis My Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (.5) Why I gave this rating: If there was ever a book I wish I had listened to, it would be this one. Pretty spectacular to win a Grammy for an audible narration. This book is the embodiment of treat people with kindness as you never... Continue Reading →
Weekly Book Review 1/29 – 2/4
Title: Sometimes I Lie Author: Alice Feeney My Rating: ⭐ Why I gave this rating: This is the first Alice Feeney book I really didn’t like. It was lacking in so many ways compared to her others. It didn’t have the chapter-ending cliffhangers I’ve come to love about her writing. For a short book, I... Continue Reading →
