Hello readers!  As I'm planning my wedding for this time next year, I found that I really wanted to read some chick-lit/romance. What better way to do that than to continue the Bride Quartet series by Nora Roberts? Here is my book review for my 3rd book of 2020: Book 3:  Bed of Roses   by Nora Roberts I gave this book 3/5 stars on Goodreads. (Photo courtesy of Goodreads) This series follows a group of four life long friends who loved playing make-believe when they were kids, particularly, planning each other's weddings. Now, years later, they all live and work on the same large property (in different buildings) that also serves as the venue for their business. What business? Why planning weddings of course! The first book followed photographer Mac, and this book follows florist, Emmaline. Emmaline is a very romantic person. She loves big gestures, and has certain expectations in love. She always seems to have a date, but has never fallen in love..

Unfortunately, a lot of the case study examples used in the book are not in my age range, so it felt a bit hard for me to connect with those lessons. However, when I started thinking of the ideas in the book from the point of view of my family members who are closer to retirement, I think a lot of the chapters could be really helpful to them. There was also some mention of Canadian laws and to be honest, I'm not sure if we have similar laws in the US. Meeting with a coach or adviser like the author of this book would easily clear that up though. The style of writing made this book a fairly easy to understand, and interesting read. I would recommend it to family members who are closer in age to the individuals in the book to get ideas (keeping in mind that some rules and

Hello readers! Welcome to 2020! This year I've decided to do the Pop Sugar Reading Challenge again. You can find out more info on it on the Pop Sugar website or my Overview post from last year. I've also included the 2020 prompts in my '2020 Reading Challenge' post if you want to check those out.  This year I'm going to be doing things a little bit differently. I'm still going to review every book that I read, but I may not always include the prompt. This is because, with some of the prompts this year, I think as I read more books I may want to shift some of the books around from the prompt I intended for them to one that fits them better or if another prompt comes along that fits their initial prompt better, etc. I'm also not going to share every book I read on my instagram story this year, but will try to keep up with posting photos of them weekly so feel free to check that out if you're interested. :) Here are my book reviews for my

Hey friends! It's a new year, which means there's a new reading challenge. For those who weren't following my reading goals last year, I've decided to participate in the PopSugar Reading Challenge again. I found that last year it helped me broaden my reading horizons and always have something lined up to read so I didn't hit too many ruts. I've also decided to increase my reading book goal from 60 to 65 for 2020. I'm going to try to keep up with doing at least one if not multiple reviews per week, but I'm not going to lie, I'm not sure how quickly I'll be able to keep up with reading and reviewing (especially in the beginning of the year). Some weeks may have only one review, or may have a slightly different blog idea. Other weeks might then get multiple reviews depending on how quickly I finish different books. That said, here are the PopSugar Reading Challenge Prompts for 2020. If you want to join me in my reading goals or read any bo
