If you’ve followed me any length of time you likely know of my love for New Orleans. Each visit, I make a point of picking up a book or three at Faulkner House Books. This month’s book club selection (and last month’s too!) is from our most recent trip. The Yellow House is a highly…
LWD Book Club ~ Our Country Friends
Every time we visit New Orleans I have to buy at least a couple of books at my favorite book store – Faulkner House Books. This month’s LWD Book Club selection, Our Country Friends, was one of my purchases on our most recent trip. The story of a group of friends gathering together to wait…
LWD Book Club ~ The Willing Widow
I don’t read a lot of romance books but I make an exception for historical romance set in my favorite city, New Orleans. It’s been ages since I’ve indulged in this (not-so) guilty pleasure. Since we’ve just had a vacation there if feels like the perfect time for The Willing Widow, the first in a…
LWD Book Club ~ The Art of Nonconformity
For our LWD April Book Club selection I thought we’d change things up a bit. How about a non-fiction book this time around? I’m feeling the need to shake things up in my own life and maybe you’re experiencing the same urge. Let’s see what we can learn from The Art of Non-Conformity: Set Your…

My 2022 Syllabus ~ A Reading List For Challenging Times
This is my third year of creating a personal “syllabus” to guide my reading. I like the idea of having an overall plan for the year. This year, as life continues to be rather challenging, I am finding it especially important to create a reading plan to meet those challenges or perhaps provide a bit…
My Favorite Books of 2021
I love to hear about other’s favorite reads so I figure I should return the favor. I set out to read 50 books last year but only managed 32. Still, considering that the average number of books read per year by Americans is 12, I suppose that’s not too bad. Here are my favorite books…
