Simple Meals + Honest Book Reviews + Practical Living
It’s been a hot minute since I’ve written an ‘Everything I Read This Month + Currently Reading‘ post. I believe the last one I did was in February? And I call myself a book blogger… Well SIX MONTHS LATER I’m going to post one massive roundup. It’s going to cover everything I’ve read this summer.
…
If you’re one of my regular male readers, please stop here. Dad and Uncle Reed — that means you too. Females only for this post, alright? If you have a vagina or identify as a female, please — proceed on! …
OK, so you know how a few months ago I rounded up all the books from all over my house? And swore I wouldn’t checkout anymore library books, buy anymore books, or read anymore books until I got through said pile? Yeah, me too. I’ve been an active member of BOTM (Book of the Month) for over 18 months, however, I’ve been skipping my selections because of THE PILE. And then I got weak. I had five beautiful credits waiting for me, and I lost all self control. I ordered the five I had my eye on. And now here we are.
I recently finished The Great Alone by Kristin Hannah and Small Great Things by Jodi Picoult and my two-word takeaway for both: POWERFUL & MOVING.
Let’s be real, anything Hannah and Picoult write will be powerful & moving, but these two novels are really something special. I highly encourage you to add them to your summer list.
