living my best life, experiencing the best books
How are we one month into 2019 already? It has been quite a beautiful month and many days it hasn't seemed like the middle of winter as I go on my lunchtime walks and enjoy the sunshine. This has been a pretty good start to the reading year. I set my goal for the year …

With the start of 2019 comes the countdown to many new books. I always have a goodreads shelf of future publications that I keep up to date with all the books that I am excited to read that haven't been published yet. Today I figured that I would share some of these reads with you. …
Happy End to 2018! Now I don't know how this year was for you, but for me this was definitely a year of change. I completed my masters degree, moved back across the country to British Columbia, started my first post grad job and started really planning for the future. Despite all this I was …

Last month was not a very great reading month for me, I kept abandoning books partway through and there were days when I did not feel like picking up a book at all. For someone who bases much of her life on her reading and her ability to read this was very disheartening. Now my …
I used to be a book snob who would never pick up a graphic novel as I didn't count it as real reading, wow I really missed out on a few years of my life. Now I really enjoy graphic novels, both as a break from regular books as well as enjoyment all on their …
The summer is coming to an end and with it another month of reading. I read quite a few books in a variety of genres; from horror, to YA, to short stories, and a whole bunch of non-fiction. While I am looking forward to the cooler weather and pumpkin spice things, I enjoyed looking back …

Another month, another stack of books read. My husband jokes that he only sees about a quarter of the books that I read as they come in and out of the house so quickly (and he is probably right). But that is why I love living and working next to two different library systems, I …

Another month, another pile of books read. This has been such a good reading month, mostly due to the fact that I currently have over two hours of public transit a day which I spend reading (and sometimes listening to podcasts). Being able to do this much reading has been awesome and as such I …
