Went to go run errands this morning and when I started our pickup it let me know one of our tires was slowly leaking air 😩. Hoping it‘ll just be a patch job, I REALLY don‘t want to buy a new tire right now since they aren‘t that old. Thankfully I brought a book to distract me!

Hey I‘m back everyone! It‘s been a crazy, no good summer for me after getting back from TX. My paternal grandfather died extremely suddenly at the beginning of July and it triggered a terrible reading slump for me as I‘ve been struggling to deal with the manner of his death and my grief. Here‘s hoping a fun, fluffy book while the kidlet is at swimming lessons will help!

Starting our drive back home to Michigan tomorrow (with a pit stop in Iowa at my mom‘s to pick up our dogs) finally! Had a really fun time here in Texas but 2 months is WAY too long to live in a hotel room and be away from home. Seriously going to miss having a drink with a good book by the pool though…

Ok Litsy friends! We are going to be in Laredo for nearly 60 days late April to mid june for my husband‘s job so looking for book suggestions that are placed in TX. I like cozies, historical fic and historical mysteries, and romance the most! Also looking for suggestions of fun things to do with an 11 year old! 2 months is a long time so will definitely need ideas 😂

Headed into Dearborn today to visit The Henry Ford to see the visiting Scooby Doo exhibit! I‘m ridiculously excited since I‘ve been a pretty hardcore Scooby fan since I was a kid 😂. A good mystery is the perfect read for the ride there!

Mysteries, especially historical ones! The tagged is the first in probably my favorite book series ever. A historical mystery series that follows Sebastian St Cyr, Lord Devlin as he solves murders in Regency London. Sebastian and his eventual wife (enemies to lovers trope!) are one of my favorite literary couples of all time.

Me? Participate in another reading challenge? It‘s more likely than you think! I own three books of Fiona Davis‘ that I haven‘t read yet so that‘s who I‘m going to focus on for this #backlistreadathon. This is a double win as it will also help me work towards my goal of reading more of my own books this year 😂

TheAromaofBooks Yay!! I'm excited about this challenge because it focuses on reading books we're already planning to read instead of adding new ones 😂 9mo

Second book for #JumpStart2023 down! This book was so cute but with some of the best depiction of depression/weight of having to live up to a family name I‘ve ever seen. Honestly gave me a lot of Check, Please vibes! Also covers “a borrowed book” prompt for the #NoBuyChallenge2023 and FOUR prompts for #ReadySetRead2023 (a debut, sports romance, LGBTQ+, author‘s name has initials)

PuddleJumper Brilliant! I was going to read this over Christmas but never got around to it. Going to bump it up my TBR because it sounds good 9mo

Well, wasn‘t planning on spending my NYE afternoon at the urgent care but here we are. 2 hour wait for my kiddo to be seen for an ear infection. Started complaining around 11 that his ear was a little sore and quickly devolved to nearly in tears pain 3 hours later. Thankfully had this book and another stacked on the island to read tonight so it was an easy grab out the door.
