April
Reading It’s been a stellar reading month. I don’t know how I’ve done it. Actually, I do know. It’s because I’ve shirked responsibility and curled up with a book at every moment possible. It was easy to fly through a book when it was so addictive. Desire or Defense by Leah Brunner was one of…

February
Usually, February is the time of year when I feel sluggish and a bit restless with life. This year has been nothing like that. My February has been full of change and possibility and I’m curious to see what the future holds. It’s a reminder that no year is going to be the same and…

January
January. It’s supposed to be the fresh start that kicks off the tone of your year. My January has been more like a kick in the face. Life can really surprise you in the worst way. To escape some sad news that my family has received, I’ve dived into work, writing and exercise. A healthy…

December Wrap Up: Reading, Watching, Listening and Life
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all my readers! I’d like to say a big farewell to 2022 and hello to 2023! Even though it’s just another day, the New Year coupled with the time off over Christmas always seems like it holds so much possibility – and I don’t just mean for…

2022 – Year in Review
Did 2022 kinda suck for me? Yeah, I would say it did. Besides bringing the twinnies into the world, not much else went to plan. I had a hospital stay after my twins were born, my oldest daughter had a seizure and an unfortunate diagnosis and we had an issue with our neighbour that affected…

October Wrap Up: Reading, Watching, Listening and Life
Reading You Deserve Each Other by Sarah Hogle Following on from last month, this month’s reread is You Deserve Each Other by Sarah Hogle. I thought this was such a unique enemies-to-lovers concept, and while both parties are extremely childish on many occasions, the banter and build up is perfection. You’ll love this if: you’ve…

September Wrap Up: Reading, Listening, Watching and Life
Reading Falling For Your Fake Fiancé by Emma St. Clair This is the book that has started my Emma St. Clair binge this month. I’d only read one of her novellas and I liked it well enough, but when I saw this book for free, I snapped it up because who doesn’t love a fake…

Books Mad About You by Mhairi McFarlane Mhairi McFarlane is one of my favourite authors. In fact, I think she is my number one favourite author.

July Wrap Up: Reading, Listening, Watching and Life
Reading In A New York Minute by Kate Spencer In a New York Minute was a quick and charming read. While the timeline was something I had to work on keeping up with and the writing style wasn’t what I usually choose, this book was sweet and enjoyable. You’ll love this if: you love romcoms…

Trying a Morning Routine For My Personality Type
I find humans fascinating. I suppose that’s one of the reasons I love writing. I like creating characters that are both like and unlike me. I’ve always said that my dream job would be to follow someone different around every week just to see what their life is like. I want to know all about…
