What I Read in April 2018
April was a pretty good month – I celebrated my birthday and our wedding anniversary and I did a fair amount of reading. I have one month left with my job, and then I’m free to read all day instead of teach! I’m excited for that, but for now I’m just trying to keep up […]
What I Read in March 2018
Wow, it’s already April! My birthday month! I didn’t read as much as I wanted to this past month, but a ton of great Netflix shows have been keeping me busy. My March reading round-up is a mixed bag. I read a graphic novel, a novel translated from its original French, a collection of personal […]
What I Read in January 2018
This year, I had the idea to post each month about what I read and what I thought about each book. It’s a little easier to manage than full-on book reviews, so I’ll try it out and see how it goes! In January, I read six books! I’m ahead of schedule for my 50 books […]
Beautiful Books I Brought Back
When I was in America for our second wedding a few weeks ago, I went to my favorite bookstore near my house (even though it’s about 30-40 minutes away by car because we live in the middle of nowhere) – Barnes and Noble! If we had a local independent bookstore, I’d go there, but alas, […]
A Recap of My Reading Year – 2016
For 2016, I set myself a relaxed reading goal of 25 books. I knew I could easily read that many, so it wasn’t a challenge to read more. In fact, I wanted to prioritize reading more by making it less stressful for myself. If I had tried to shoot for 40 or 50, I know […]

Jane Eyre – Book Review
I finally did it! I finally read Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte. I’ve had it on my shelf for a long time, and I started it a few years ago, and loved it from the very first page. The length, I think, is what kept me from reading it all the way through. I wanted to […]
