Between travel, work, and family gatherings, it’s been a slower reading month. Which is hard for me. So here’s the short list: Here is Hart’s Crossing by Robin Lee Hatcher This collection of novellas set in small town Montana were my first to read by Robin Lee Hatcher. They were delightful! I loved […]
I’m on Inspired by Life … and Fiction today talking about my ongoing project of cataloging my home library! Come see what it’s all about!
April has been a really busy month at our house. It feels more like life before the pandemic! Not in every aspect, but getting closer. But that doesn’t mean I haven’t been reading! It’s quite a variety of types of books this month. Making the Marquess by Nichole Van This is the 4th of 5 […]
Sorry this is a day late! I was having some updates done on my website. But better late than never, right? I’m plugging right along with my reading-in-the-time-of-pandemic. Another several books logged for the month of April. So let’s get right to them! City of Thieves by David Benioff My husband read this book […]

I’ve been blowing through books, which often happens when my life feels out of control. But two of the three kids are settled now and the college student is home for just this week before heading back. And I expect that means my reading will dwindle a bit this fall as I hope to get […]
It’s not a book, really. More of a short story. Yes, it’s fiction. But perhaps one of the most insightful pieces of fiction, especially as a caution to parents. The other amazing fact about it?

Whew! May was a whirlwind until vacation. Then we ramped up a bit into the first of June as well. Things are finally starting to settle. In the mean time, I’ve been reading. And reading. And reading.
