Reading Memories: The Beginning

Back in 1982, my paternal Grandpa gifted me a collection of pop-up books. I was all of 4 years old, and I loved flipping through the pages, and getting my hands on the pop-ups. 

I know, I'm old, and so are the books I'm talking about. 🤣 

Now, I honestly do not remember all the titles, or what the covers looked like, but I do remember they were fairy tales, the spine of the book was along the long edge, and the book opened upward rather than to the side. 

Oh how I wish I still owned them. After all those books are my first book related memory. Plus it brings back the few memories I have of my Grandpa.

Amazon First Reads: What I Selected

Did you know that if you're an Amazon Prime member, that you can select a free Kindle book each month?

It's true, you can! It's a nice little perk that is part of your membership. I've known about it for about a year now, and I'm so glad I heard about it! I've discovered some books that I otherwise wouldn't have.

If you're interested, head over to Amazon First Reads* and make your selection!
 

Books I read in August

Wasn't it just August 1st? How are we in September already? This is not making sense. Especially since other months felt like they went on FOREVER. (I'm looking at you March and April) 

Curious what I read in August? I'll let you know now it was all romance, and I read a lot of new-to-me authors. It was splendid. Keep reading to find out about the books I read.

Kiss My Cupcake {a review}

Follow my blog with Bloglovin

On August 11th Helena Hunting released her latest novel, Kiss My Cupcake. She has been sharing about this book (in her Facebook group) for a while now, and the snippets I've read definitely caught my attention. After all, I do love a good rom-com! Add in the enemies to lovers trope, and just hand it over. I will give the book (or movie) my full attention.

September Releases I'm Excited For!

September is just around the corner. Seriously just a few more days! That means my kids return* to school. I think I'm prepared for that and I know three of my four kids are ready. Hopefully the transition back to school goes well for everyone.

That being said, a new month also means new books being released! 

What books have my attention? Keep reading!
