I've spent a lot of this year preparing for and becoming a mother to our baby boy. Unlike most years, most of the books I … Continue reading Aimee’s Top Books of 2022

Books Worth Re-reading
Today's blog post spotlights a few books that I've read through the years that I feel like are worth re-reading (or, if you haven't read them before, are worth a read). Lately I've been getting into a reading slump. Last year (2020) I only had one DNF (did not finish) book (out of 50). I … Continue reading Books Worth Re-reading
Things I’ve Written That Make Me Feel Smart – Pt. 1

The last of the wild
I'm super excited to share this post for many reasons. I consider it my "dedication" post to my husband and dog. It's a two-for-one book review! I'll be sharing some great opportunities on free or *almost* free books. Before I met my husband, I had a love of nature. I loved painting in nature. … Continue reading The last of the wild
The Devil in the White City
Sometimes fact is even stranger, wilder, and crazier than fiction. It's books like Erik Larson's The Devil in the White City that make me want to throw away the dry, boring, dull, tedious textbooks that kids in schools have to read for history class. Let me break it down for you: Yes. The Devil in the … Continue reading The Devil in the White City
