Dear Fear, I’ve given you nearly 38 years of my life. I’ve let you guide and dictate nearly every move. You’ve made decisions for me that I’ll always regret. You’ve made me wonder what if far too many times. You’ve made me say no when yes was all I wanted. You’ve pushed me to say …
**Review** The Stillwater Girls, Minka Kent ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wow. From page one I was hooked. I needed to uncover everything and kept making guesses along the way. Some right. Some wrong. The voice of this novel was amazing. The writing flowed easily and allowed me to immerse myself in the characters. I absolutely loved this book …
“Men like you,” I said and raised my glass, “are the reason women like me have vibrators.” The amber liquid hit my tongue in a shockwave and burned as it flowed down my throat. I dropped the glass on the bar and grabbed my purse from the hook underneath. Not bothering to give my date …
**Review** Cilka’s Journey, Heather Morris (10.1.19) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The Tattooist Of Auschwitz was good. Very good, in fact. But Cilka’s Journey was amazing. This young woman survived more than any of us can even imagine. She saw the absolute worst of the world during WWII, and then saw it again when she was sentenced to hard …
**Review** Our New Normal, Colleen Faulkner ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I read this book as I read most of my Kindle books—while rocking my daughter to sleep or sitting in her room while she plays. This may have influenced my relationship with Our New Normal. I’m always drawn to mother-daughter books, so I was sucked in immediately. Liv’s …
**Review** Waiting For Tom Hanks, Kerry Winfrey ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Confession: I LOVE rom-com movies. Like, love them more than Chris Evans. Okay, maybe not that much. (If I’m being honest, Chris Evans is my Tom Hanks.) Until this year, I didn’t love reading rom-coms. In fact, I swore them off. Then I read one. And then …
**Review** If Only I Could Tell You, Hannah Beckerman ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Beautiful. Tragic. Beautiful. What an emotionally draining read. It was also impossible to put it down, and I read it in under 4 hours. The prose was absolutely beautiful. Figurative language that will gut you. Audrey, Jess and Lily have survived the unthinkable. But, it …
Can we talk about imposter syndrome for a minute? I struggle with this in nearly ever facet of my life. As a mother. As a wife. As a marketer. As a writer. Somewhere along the way I decided that I wanted to be a writer. It didn’t matter that I wrote nearly every day. Now …
Thank you to the publisher for the gifted copy in exchange for an honest review. **Review** Love on Lexington Avenue, Lauren Layne ⭐️⭐️⭐️(Out 9/17/19) Love on Lexington Avenue is a solid romcom read. It follows all the tropes we love. They hate each other. They like each other. But the one trope I wish we …
**Review**The Tattooist of Auschwitz, Heather Morris⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️The one good thing about reading a lot of WWII historical fiction is I’m always prepared for an emotional and tragic journey. Because Lale and Gita are real people who lived to tell their story, I was able to read The Tattooist Of Auschwitz knowing that there would be at …
