What’s on your nightstand?

It’s late and I’m tired, but I wanted to post this before I forget. Looking at my read list, I’m kind of surprised at how much reading I got done! Was October really that long? After finishing Emma last week, I realized I only had 11 books left to read on my book list for [...]

Is it possible?

What’s on your nightstand?

While May was a good month for reading, June’s reading was sidelined with all the packing and moving. I ended up bringing only one of the books on my ‘to read’ for June list, but also added a few more along the way. This month I finished reading: The Secret Garden, by Frances Hodgson Burnett [...]

May was a good month for reading. I’m actually quite surprised at the number of books. Eight!be I think June will be an interesting month for reading since we’ll be packing up for our big move to Louisville and I’m not sure how many books I want to travel with. That said, I’m planning on [...]
