Reading… The Huntress. I really enjoyed the author’s previous book, The Alice Network, and was looking forward to her latest work. Both books are a good combination of stories of WWII strong women. I’m about a quarter of the way into this and have been enjoying it so far. It also has the element of…

Reading… Don’t Go There. I love a good travel memoir, so I was excited when my book club decided to read this one. I’m about three quarters through it and was surprised to see that I’ve been to two of the places he writes about: Istanbul and Jerusalem. While we did see some protestors in…

Did you have a nice weekend? I think mine was the perfect combination of relaxation and productivity. I updated some blog posts and am working on some things to hopefully get going on blogging more often than I have been. I also did some work on a pattern I’ve been working on and plan to…

Watching… Dead to Me. I binge watched this over the weekend and I loved it! It’s a dark dramedy with lots of twists and turns. It ends with a pretty big cliffhanger so I hope that there’s a season two. I don’t want to give too much away. I’m not even sure what to compare…

Reading… The Silent Sister. I’ve been flying through this book. I read Diane Chamberlain’s Necessary Lies several years ago and loved it. I’m not sure why it took me so long to read another one of her books. Like Necessary Lies, this one revolves around a mystery, but it’s different than most mysteries. While there…

How was your weekend? I was really sleepy this weekend and took lots of naps. I think I’m still adjusting to the time change. Reading… Marilla of Green Gables. When I was growing up, Lucy Maude Montgomery was my favorite author. I still remember going to the bookstore and discovering they had a new L.M….

Reading… Company of One. I actually have several books going right now. I requested this book from the library after hearing the author, Paul Jarvis, on the Hurry Slowly PodcastHurry Slowly Podcast. It’s nice to read a book by someone with a similar business philosophy as mine, where growing the business isn’t the primary concern….

Did you watch the Oscars last night? I did not plan to, but then I remembered that I actually (kind of) know someone that was nominated and decided I would be really disappointed if he won and I missed it. Unfortunately, he did not win. Reading… The Line that Held Us. I finished this book…

I did not intend to take so much time off. Between being a little under the weather and a weird work schedule at the law office, I’ve had trouble getting my act together. Reading… Lethal White. I’m a big fan of this J.K. Rowling series (written under a pseudonym). At 656 pages, this is a…
