The Kid in Me! 📕
One of my favorite books of all time! I can read it over and over. Rick Bragg is an amazing storyteller, he’s never had a book I don’t like ( or buy). A great story about strength,resilience and love of a not so perfect family. It’s beautiful!
All Over but the Shoutin' by Rick Bragg
Every last single one of these!!! David Sedaris is brilliant and hilarious!!! Let’s Explore Diabetes With Owls has a story about the two spiders that live in his Apt. he named Paula and Phillip ❤️Serendipitous!!!

Another author I love 💕 Silas House is a local treasure!!! Clays Quilt was the first book I ever read of his, but you can’t go wrong with a single one.
Clay's Quilt by Silas House - 9781949467246
I read the books before the show and like with all great books, they are so much better than the show! And the show is GREAT! I could and will reread these over and over. Also I’m sick of waiting on the last book!!
George R. R. Martin's A Game of Thrones 5-Book Set
My favorite read for Fall. It’s become a small ritual because they don’t take long to read, beautifully simple. The artwork on the covers of the original chronicles are by one of my ALL time favorite artists Larry Elmore! I can stare at the covers an...
Dragons of Autumn Twilight (Dragonlance I)
One of my all time check out fantasy go-to’s! I was in elementary school when I read the first book Dragons of Autumn Twighlight. When fall hits I love to get in my hammock and read this series through winter and spring. Just a few pages before work ...
Dragonlance Chronicles by Margaret Weis
Definitely one of my all time top five books! Another one I can read over and over! Silas House is a Kentucky treasure! Every word feels like home , he describes Appalachia like the magical world she is! It’s absolutely beautiful!
A Parchment of Leaves (Ballantine Reader's Circle)
Individual book 2 in the series. Amazon has great used versions for a couple bucks. Winter night , hot tea and a fire! Serious self care!
Dragons of Winter Night (Dragonlance Vol. 2)
Number 3 in the Dragon Lance Chronicles. Hammock reading at its best! I love the artwork on all of the books, most have little drawings inside 😊 total nostalgia!
Dragonlance Chronicles: Dragons of Spring Dawning
Generational healing, tragic and so beautiful! A top ten! It’s another book I can read again and again. I think I just might hear soon 🙃 It’s deep so settle in…
Love Medicine: Newly Revised Edition (P.S.)
I have a MAED in Library Science so I was required to read different YA books. I use to listen to these while driving back and forth to EKU on tape and CD 😆 I absolutely LOVE this series and still read them without the requirement. So very good! The...
The Last Apprentice by Joseph Delaney
I have loved these gorgeously visual graphic novels since I was in elementary school! This has to be my favorite of all the series. Wendy Pini is one of the most amazingly talented artists and she inspired my love of fantasy and art with her work in...
Elfquest : The Original Quest: Book 3 - Wendy-Pini
Historical Fiction
So gorgeously written! This is such a beautiful Victorian read! It’s sexy , thrilling , and dramatic! It easily mimics the parallel’s of today’s societies wealthy and poor! I love it!
The Crimson Petal And The White: Victorian Epic
I will admit I watched the show first but stopped after season three so I could read the books 😊 I am not a romance novel lover and this is far from your typical romance novel it’s a beautiful mix of fantasy, history, and adventure.
Outlander by Diana Gabaldon
These are spicy 🌶️ SPICY!!! Totally erotic and still beautifully written! Not for the prude 😉
Anne Rice Sleeping Beauty Series
These are filled with magic, mystery and some amazing history! You can’t put them down , it’s like traveling to another time! Beautifully written and full of everything a good book should have; adventure , love , lust , mystery and magic!
The Mists of Avalon - Marion Zimmer Bradley
True Crime
Wow! This book was extremely interesting and informative to say the least. It’s like a literal sleuths checklist! It uses actual cases as examples and is written by who is considered the best, he is a go to for the FBI. It’s a little unnecessarily wo...
How to Solve a Cold Case: And Everything Else
Just Relax!
Sometimes I just like to snuggle up in my bed , turn on a soft light, diffuse some oils, drink some hot tea and read!!! Something uncomplicated and entertaining!
So this is getting ready to be a movie. I read this last year , wanted something a little easy and entertaining. I finished it within a few days. It’s a laid back fun read. A good mystery , thriller for times when you’re not looking to get too deep.
The Whisper Man by Alex North
Yep I’m one of those people fascinated by the royal family 😆Not just today’s but throughout history. I read this and MEH.. don’t help his image much but it does make them seem more real because they too have asshole family members 🙃
