I’m trying (trying!) to get back to more of a rhythm with sharing blog posts, and I thought it would be fun to share both my favorite things of the month and the things that were most highly purchased through my affiliate thinks throughout the month. We’ll see if I stick with it or not…
Read MoreIf you missed it, I launched a new version of A RAD Reading Challenge for 2022, and you can find the printable version and Instagram story versions here. About once a month, I’ll be sharing recommendations for the different prompts to help give you inspiration and ideas for what to read.
Read MoreOut of the (nearly) 200 books I read in 2021, these are the ones that were my favorites. I really don’t give out five star ratings frivolously, so these are books that I truly loved (but for all different reasons).
Read MoreI love the rhythms of the church calendar and the way my soul seems to need Advent right when it arrives, every single year. It’s a season preparing for the arrival of Jesus as a baby in our world, and a season full of waiting, longing, preparing, watching, and moving toward hope.
Read MoreSupporting small businesses both locally and beyond is one of my FAVORITE things — it matters so much that we spend our money empowering artists, makers, creators, entrepreneurs, and friends living out their dreams.
Read MoreA RAD Reading Challenge is a fun, motivating, inspiring, and easy way to branch out and read more, get out of reading ruts, and discover new kinds of books. Join us this year!
Read MoreIf you have a friend or loved one who is into books and reading, chances are you don’t know what book you could get them that they would love but haven’t read yet. Enter: other bookish gifts! Avoid the struggle of trying to find the perfect read, and gift a great accompaniment to their reading life instead.
Read MoreThis is by no means a comprehensive list of all the books I loved in my childhood (ya girl MAXED OUT that library card often!), but are some of my favorites that I have held onto all these years later.
Read MoreI took my big solo road trip this month, so I did NOT expect to finish this many books, but a few audiobooks on the road helped! I had more one-star reads than ever this month, which was not super fun… here’s to better books to finish this year strong!
Read MoreWe are thick into spooky season, especially with Halloween right around the corner, and I rounded up 15 of the best mysteries and thrillers I’ve read. All of these were four or five star favorites for me, meaning I either really liked them, or totally loved them. (The five star reads are the first five listed!)
Read MoreFor almost two years now, I have faithfully observed the Sabbath without fail every single Friday evening to Saturday evening (since I work on Sundays being in ministry). It has completely changed my life, my faith, and my heart, too.
Read MoreThe first half of this month was full of a lot of books (although not many winners…) and then I basically stopped reading entirely? Thanks, depression…
Read MoreI had to get away from it all to let the dust settle and the fog clear, but I’m seeing it better now: there’s a reason why I have these channels, and there’s a way to use them that matters.
Read MorePhew, it was a SOLID month of reading! It helps that I traveled and had time to read on flights (PRAISE), and that I had some housesitting time that involved days spent by the pool, and that I did I spent the last weekend of the month doing a readathon that resulted in 4 books being read over 2 days!
Read MoreRounding up 10 of my favorite things from July — all travel favorites since I FINALLY got to travel again after so long!
Read MoreIt’s officially (a little more than) halfway through 2021, and I have read 95 books so far, with 22 of them rating 5-stars! I rounded up my halfway top 12 books (I know the trend is to pick 10, but that was too hard!) — all were 5-star favorites, all are books I highly recommend, and hopefully they reflect diverse reading options and authors, too!
Read MoreRounding up 10 of my favorite things from June — from makeup to migraine savers to pens and a new robot vacuum and more!
