I LOVE homeschooling my kids. We have so much fun (and of course the occasional stressful day, it's not all rainbows and sunshine haha). But I thought I would share the resources we are currently using for Kinder, 3rd, 4th, and 6th grade. If you're new to homeschool and maybe feeling overwhelmed, feel free to reach out and let's chat! My best advice: just relax. Kids learn a ton through play :)

Book recommendations for romance readers! Includes some of my favorite series

Kids will tear up books, want more books, read them and leave them alone forever but overall, to get them engaged and seeing the books, and hearing us read and letting them play, creates imagination and starts the journey of reading. I didn't see the benefit when my first daughter was born, and she struggled in school for a while until we practiced over and over again. For my son after, we made sure to read and we definitely saw a difference in his grades and engagement with books currently as a teen. So now again, for my 2-year-old, I'm hoping to carry on reading as I saw first-hand how important reading was to get started. Even if it doesn't seem like it helps, it does!

I made this list because I go through romance phases depending on the season : some months I want something light and fun, others I just need a story that makes me feel warm again. Also, i always have trouble finding books for each season and i think i’m not the only one so i thought that making this list would help some people to get their next book or read to enjoy! Think summer flings, cozy winter cuddles, messy fall emotions, and all the in-between moments that make reading romance so comforting. It’s not just a list — it’s a year of feelings in book form.
