Self-Love Sunday: July Edition

Dearest Readers, How have you been? I find myself attempting to write a self-love Sunday note to myself this July when things have been weird, to say the least. We have all been struggling through the current affairs plaguing our lives from all the changes to all the heartache. This being said, I would like …

It’s 2020…

... and have we all heard the usual: "Did you make any resolutions this year?" I don't know what it is about this time of year, I love the whole notion of a 'fresh start' but the idea that I am pinning my hopes onto the first few weeks of one of the toughest months …

Fall means…

... never having to ask if it too early to buy Halloween decorations? Are you with me literary lovelies? I feel like quoting Gaston from Beauty and the Beast after the last question.  (Do you know the scene of which I speak?) How are you, dear readers? I am finding my fall to be one …

When your favourite kind of blog posts…

... don't get the love you thought they would. What do you do dear bloggers and readers? I have loved creating blog posts surrounding Who Wore it Best Wednesdays where books battle it out on the literary red carpet to see who will come out the winner. Alas, this summer, they are the posts which …

They Still Haunt Me – Part Two

Hello again literary lovelies, I find myself being haunted by past reads. Storylines which are creeping into my dreams long after I've read the last page. Has this ever happened to you? Has there been a book which just wouldn't let you go? I have had books whisper for a reread but it has been …

Cottage Bound!

I find myself this summer for almost the entire month of July visiting the cottage which was recently purchased by my sister and her family. There will be lots of sand, sun and reading I hope! Since it is over a four-hour trek from where I currently live to the cottage I have been planning …

Where would you go…

... if you could jump into the pages of one of your favourite books? Would you be flying high with dragons? Casting spells with ease? Drinking tea and dancing in Regency England? Scurrying down blacked-out streets during The Blitz of WWII? Questing with confidants to save the world?   Or peering through a magnifying glass to …

I am thinking…

... about moving from two posts a week to one during the summer months literary lovelies. I know I finally have been posted more frequently this month but with July comes a four-hour trek to cottage country and August brings me travelling back to Saskatchewan to visit my family for a few weeks.
