Harry Potter and…Me!

Alright y'all - Harry Potter. I have had a book blog for over 3 years and have yet to write a single full post about Harry Potter. UNACCEPTABLE. That changes now. Get ready for a quick overview of my life with HP and, also, one of the cutest stories ever about me and my husband!…

Reading Women Challenge 2020

First of all, Happy New Year's Eve! New Year's is my favorite holiday for many reasons, but the feeling of starting fresh is definitely high on the list. I'm really excited for that this year, as 2019 was a tough one for us. Onwards and, hopefully, upwards - amirite?! Anyways, last year I created my…

Reading Challenge Wrap-Up 2017

I had a very exhausting (but very fun) weekend. One of my oldest/best friends gets married at the end of the month and I was at her bachelorette party. With a record-setting escape room escape (my first time doing one - it was so intricate and intense!), a tacky lights 6k in the snow (and I…
