Book Review

For awhile, my favorite genre for audiobooks was celebrity memoirs, but recently I’ve been diving into another rabbit hole – Victorian-era lady detectives. My first audiobook of 2018 was the second in the Veronica Speedwell series, A Perilous Undertaking by Deanna Raybourn, narrated by Angèle Masters. Veronica is a butterfly collector and scientist who, in [...]

Every year, fellow blogger Sheila at Book Journey put out a prompt for bloggers and bookish people to share their first book of the year. I didn’t get around to sharing my first reads in Sheila’s post, but I did want to write about them here because there were both books that made me think [...]

This is the end! I officially wrapped up 100 Days of Books on Instagram on July 12, a feat that was (and still is) incredibly satisfying. When I the project back in April, I honestly wasn’t sure if I’d make it all the way through. I don’t have a great track record completing things like this, [...]

The thing I remember most from this little stretch of books is the feeling that I was SO CLOSE to being finished with this project. I wasn’t traveling, so a lot of these photos are just from places around my house that I hadn’t used for backgrounds up to this point. Pretty early in the [...]

As I was looking through my photos from 100 Days of Books, I realized that this little batch — books 71 through 80 — have some of my favorite photos from the entire experiment. I think maybe by this time I’d really started finding my groove, and I was out and about a little more [...]

The 10 books I’m featuring today were all posted on Instagram as part of my 100 Day Project during a period of travel, coming home from Book Expo, then heading up to my family’s cabin for Memorial Day — hence, all of the nature shots even when they didn’t seem appropriate. But it’s also a [...]

More Instagram reviews! In real life, I’m one week away from finishing up this project in real time — the official last day of the 100 Day Project is Wednesday, July 12. I’m enjoying it a lot, but I’m also ready to see it finish up and decide what I’m going to be doing next. [...]

I’m little behind on sharing the photos and reviews from my 100 Days of Books Instagram project on the blog. Today’s post includes entries 31 through 40, but in real time I’m past book 80 — that seems amazing to me! I’m hoping to get caught up in the next few weeks so I can [...]
