Everyone makes New Years' Resolutions, right? Well, not me. I've never kept a single new years resolution past January 6th. But I do set goals for myself every year. Even if I never right them down, I tell myself every January, "This year I'm going to..." This year, I wanted…
I am so excited to tell you about the 10 books that changed my life! To be honest, I could write a post and list 2500 books that changed my life, because to be honest every book I've ever read has added to or changed my life in some way.…
I was watching a video by Naomi Reads, and this tag sounded like so much fun! I wanted to participate, but since I don't have a YouTube channel, you're getting a post! Ready? Let's go! Do you have a certain place at home for reading? I mainly read on my…
Monthly wrap-up posts are some of my favorites to write! I've missed a few months, I'm sure, but this month I'm trying something a little new. Last month, if you remember, I only told you about the books I read. Well, needless to say, my post was a little scarce…

I saw these books were releasing tomorrow, and it takes everything in me not to run to my nearest bookstore. Ordering online may be my only option right now, with social distancing's being my new norm. But I seriously can't wait for these books! Check them out! Enter The Aardvark…
I often get told that reading is fine for some people, but that it's not necessary for others. This is usually said by people that don't enjoy reading. I wanted to write a post on why it's important to read, not just for enjoyment or to learn something new. Reading…
