Silver Sparrow – Tayari Jones
You might recognize Tayari Jones from her recent 2018 publication of An American Marriage. Silver Sparrow isn’t a new release (2011) but I’m glad I stumbled upon this title. This book will capture you from the first sentence: “My father, James Witherspoon, is a bigamist”. The book centers around four women and the shared man they all have…
Feel Good Reads, Cozy Blankets, + Crisp Fall Weather
Happy October – Happy Fall! Even though it’s officially been fall for a few weeks now, the temperatures are starting to really feel like the cooler months we have all come to know and love. I don’t know about you, but fall is some of my favorite months for reading. I’m not sure if it’s…

Twelve books in September?! That’s a record for me! I’d have to do some more digging but I think it’s safe to say this month had some of the best books I’ve read this year. If you follow me on Instagram, you know I post a lot about the books I’m reading. Thanks to my handy dandy…

I’ve been waiting for Emily Giffin’s new book to release for so long; after reading All We Ever Wanted, her most recent before this one, I could hardly wait for The Lies That Bind. I know there are dedicated readers of her early work, like Something Borrowed and Something Blue, and after reading her latest two I can’t believe I…
Darling Rose Gold – Stephanie Wrobel
If you followed the insane story of Gypsy Rose or watched the Hulu series called The Act, then you’re familiar with the premise of Darling Rose Gold. Although the book does not make mention of directly correlating to the true story of Gypsy Rose Blanchard, it is nearly identical. The Act on Hulu fascinated me, as did the…
Allie and Bea – Catherine Ryan Hyde
Allie and Bea was such a refreshing read! I loved getting to know both characters and the relationship between the two of them was so heartwarming to see develop over the course of the story. Bea, a widow whom lives off her social security check in a trailer, has been recently scammed into losing every penny…
