It’s the final weekday in May and I’m here with Dara from Not In Jersey to share our monthly Local Tourist link-up. Obviously things are still crazy around the world, and I think most of us are sheltering in place and not really getting out to do anything. That makes being a local tourist a […]
I’m taking part in the Read the Alphabet challenge, and May’s letters were I and J. These are a few of the books I read this month – all from my own shelves! You can still take part in this challenge if you want, so do visit the link if you’re interested. Next month’s letters […]
Happy Memorial Day to those in the U.S.! I hope everyone had a nice weekend. Today I wanted to announce a new ongoing feature for this summer. Most of us are still sheltering in place as much as we can, and I know that the summer months are going to look very different this year. […]

Lauren Does London: 221B Baker Street I’m a huge fan of Sherlock Holmes so I had to visit 221B Baker Street (yes, that’s the address). My sister had been to London before, so she’d already gone here, but she happily brought me back so I could check it out. There is a Sherlock Holmes Museum […]
My 30th birthday is May 30 – yes, my golden birthday – and I’ve had people ask me what I want already. I’m not that great at giving ideas offhand because there really isn’t much that I want or need…beyond anything and everything book related. However, it’s fun to put together wish lists when I […]
One of the things that I miss is going to my local public libraries and taking part in their craft programs. My mom and I – and sometimes my sister – used to go at least a couple times a month. However, with Covid-19, there won’t be any in-person library events for awhile. Therefore, I […]
Happy Tuesday, everyone! I’m here with Jana and Steph to share some of the books I’ve been reading in the last month (or at least finally reviewing in the last month). Come chat books with me! Show Us Your Books: May 2020 I haven’t been reading as much as I normally do, but I still […]
Hey friends! If you follow me on Instagram, then you might have seen that I’ve been sick. As you can see from my heading – I do not have Covid-19, but I did have to get tested for it. I Don’t Have Covid-19…but… About a week and a half ago, I started having trouble sleeping […]
