It’s been a very strange reading year for me. I’ve read only a fraction of the books I would typically read during the year. But, as I look back at another stressful year of managing a public library during a global pandemic, I’m accepting of what I was able to…

I love giving (and receiving!) books as gifts! They’re so perfect because you can really find something very personalized for everyone on your list. Whether you’re looking for a gift for a little one – there are so many to choose from or an adult, you are sure to find…

I was inspired to create this list after seeing Laurie’s post about nonfiction books for kids on Bit About Books! I don’t often pick up nonfiction, but the books that are coming out are so interesting, exciting, and fun to read! Because they’re filled with great untold stories of inspiration…

Usually when we have a “freebie” week, my mind goes completely blank and I’m scrambling to figure out what to do. But, not this time! I knew right away that I wanted to do a Christmas themed list. I have an extensive number of holiday lists already created so instead…

A walk down memory lane on this Tuesday morning! I’ve got dozens, if not hundreds of bookish memories, but I’ve included a few that really stand out in my mind. Some of these memories are about certain books, while others are book-adjacent having to do with my career and my…

This was such a fun list to pull together! I wanted to know about how these characters are faring after big things have happened in their lives. I want to explain, but don’t want to say too much about each of the characters in case you haven’t read these yet.…

My formative years were spent in the 90s which means the original Baby-Sitters Club books by Ann M. Martin were an essential part of my TBR list for many years. I read dozens of these books, checking them out of the library by the stack. And if anyone couldn’t already…

Today’s official theme was “Memorable Things Book Characters Have Said” and while I can quote entire movies, I’m not as great at remembering book character quotes. Most likely because I don’t re-read as many books as I re-watch movies. So, I went rogue today, and instead, I’m going to share…

So today’s theme’s official title was “Books I Would Hand to Someone Who Claims to Not Like Reading”. But that was an awful lot, so I shortened it a bit. I’m not necessarily a huge fan of the term “reluctant reader” because I think it’s got a little bit of…

With a number of other book lists on my blog featuring all things Halloween, I decided to take a different route today! Plus, as I’ve mentioned before, I’m a huge scaredy-cat, so my knowledge of scary Halloween-y books is at a minimum. I’ve got lists about ghosts, witches, bats, monsters,…
