    Lots of work late led to little time to read, but I was able to finish Hope in the Holler by Lisa Lewis Tyre – it was a sweet story about what home looks like and how to find it. I just started Harbor Me by Jacqueline Woodson and I’m already looking…

    I need a few more hours in every day – I’m not getting as much reading done as I want, but this weekend I had a good excuse. My parents came out for the long weekend to help us re-wire our garage and put up some of the drywall. These…

    I can’t believe it’s already September! I have no idea where this summer has gone, let alone the year! Even though I did get to read Louisiana’s Way Home by Kate DiCamillo (and it was amazing), I’m moving fairly slowly through The Ship Beyond Time by Heidi Heilig and not because it’s bad –…

    I always think that when I travel I’ll have a little more time when visiting family to read, but most of my time is spent visiting (imagine that)! I drove out to my parents’ home on Thursday night and then we drove out to Wisconsin on Friday for my aunt…
