Hello My Darling Bookworms, I know I’ve been slacking. It’s just that winter is so… Wintery. Today, however, it feels like spring time and the sun has energized me. I’d catch you up on life stuff, but nothing terribly interesting has been going on for us specifically. Thankfully. That is not something I’m taking for… Read more »

The Second Week of 2020
Hello My Dearest Bookworms, It’s been a wild week. I was not expecting to be potty training my child right now, but here we are. I figured I’d kick the can down the road a little bit and use up the last jumbo pack of diapers before we gave it a go, but Sammers had… Read more »
A Bollywood Affair by Sonali Dev
Hidey Ho, Bookworms! I’m a bit of an impulse shopper when it comes to books on sale. I mean, a friend tweets that something they loved is on sale for $1.99 and I am THERE. Lightening quick one-click purchase. At least, I was. I try to be a little more careful these days, because I kind… Read more »

The Night Garden by Lisa Van Allen
Greetings Bookworms! The weather is changing and it’s making me miss my flowers already. I still have mums out, but it’s not the saaaaaaaame. Shortly after having to pull out my summer annuals, I was perusing NetGalley (a dangerous pastime under the best of circumstances) and ran across The Night Garden by Lisa Van Allen…. Read more »
Pirate Booty! (The Windflower by Laura London)
Ahoy, Bookworms! Who’s up for a little romance on the high seas? You’re not? Well, TOO BAD! A few weeks ago, I ran across an article on NPR books discussing the re-printing of a well loved romance novel from the early 1980s called The Windflower.
