Sunday Coffee – Zeroed Out TBR
Well, it’s been just over a month since 2016 began, and I’m super happy to say that I now have absolutely no books on my physical TBR pile! Granted, I didn’t start with tons – I only had six unread … Continue reading
Sunday Coffee – January
I don’t have much to say in terms of wrapping up January. The month mostly consisted of two things. The first was in my personal life: depression. The second was in books: Brandon Sanderson. It’s this second I want to … Continue reading
Sunday Coffee – My Week as a Single Mom
Motherhood has always been difficult for me, but it’s especially difficult in those times when I’ve been the only parent home with my three boys. This was one of those weeks. Jason left for Nashville last Sunday for a week-long … Continue reading
Sunday Coffee – Sick-Reading
When I was young, I discovered that repetitive action carried on too long was often followed by illness. I don’t mean that I would get tired or nauseous or simply not feel well. I mean full-blown, immune-system compromised drawn-out illness. Of … Continue reading

Sunday Coffee – Christmas
<– My new mug and stainless steel French press!!! I love this time of year. Last year, in Boston, it was incredibly sad – there was a single Christmas for us, only one place to be: our house. My family … Continue reading
Sunday Coffee – Blog Maintenance
It’s that time of year. Time to update the blog and get things ready for the new year. It’s like a personal mini-Bloggiesta! Things I’ve been working on over the last month: getting all my 2015 reviews written/posted creating new … Continue reading
Sunday Coffee – A Decade of Rowling
July 2005. Half Blood Prince has just been released, and I’ve still never read Harry Potter. Jason comes home one day, arms laden with HP volumes and a tale of his sister twisting his arm to read them. Okay, okay, … Continue reading
Sunday Coffee – November Plot-twists
Remember how I said November was going to be a quiet one on the blog? Yeah… Instead, there were three plot twists this past month: 1. I realized I couldn’t keep ignoring my health issues, and had to change priorities … Continue reading
