Reading has always been one of my main hobbies – I just love curling up with a good book! I’ve really enjoyed sharing my love of reading here on the blog.
A running list of My Top Book Recommendations can be found at this link.
I am a busy mom with young children but reading is one of my passions that I truly consider to be an important part of my self-care. I wrote a blog post about how I am able to fit it in to this season of life called Making Time for Reading.
Every month I post a recap of the books I read and my thoughts on them. You can check out all my past reviews about any given book by clicking the link on the month & year I read it below:
