    Review: Broke Millennial

    by Janna August 8, 2017
    by Janna August 8, 2017

    I’ve been really into personal finance lately (See my review of The Simple Path to Wealth). I started with creating a budget and then slowly worked my way up to tackling my 401(k) and opening a Roth IRA. Not sure …

    by Joli July 30, 2017
    by Joli July 30, 2017

    When Janna posted her review of Joshilyn Jackson’s The Opposite of Everyone, I knew I wanted to read one of her books. At the beginning of July, I saw that she had a new one coming out – The Almost …

    Review: Neither Wolf nor Dog

    by Janna July 17, 2017
    by Janna July 17, 2017

    Neither Wolf nor Dog: On Forgotten Roads with an Indian Elder is a must read. I devoured this book, slowly and purposefully, realizing early on these were words to savor. Half memoir and half travel log, Neither Wolf nor Dog …

    I’ve read a lot of great books in my lifetime, but it’s rare that I read a book that actually changes my life. This memoir by Amy Silverstein is a must-read for everyone. Whether or not you think you like …

    Review: It’s Okay to Laugh (Crying is Cool Too)

    by Joli July 2, 2017
    by Joli July 2, 2017

    Nora McInerny is my grief hero and, whether you’re grieving someone (or something) or not, this is an amazing, funny, insightful read that you should most definitely pick up! A couple years ago, Nora miscarried her second child, lost her …

    Review: The Alice Network by Kate Quinn

    by Becky June 30, 2017
    by Becky June 30, 2017

    Why: Joli put this book in my line of vision and, as she predicted, I jumped at the chance to read another wartime novel. Just when I think I’ve read all the different views or spins one can take, an author produces …

    Review Roundup

    by Janna June 13, 2017
    by Janna June 13, 2017

    As I noted in my last Review Roundup, it can be difficult to write a full fledged book review for every book you read. For me, writing a short Goodreads’ review can be just enough. Because my last post was …
