Goodreads is an app/site that helps me keep track of all the books I’ve read. Right now it tells me that I’ve read 248 books, want to read 116, and am currently reading 7. I’m really only reading one book right now so guess I better check my settings.
To me, there’s nothing better than finding the perfect book so I’m always on the lookout for books to add to my “want to read” list. … Read More »

I was about to lose an Audible credit and needed to make a quick decision about which book to purchase. I quickly scanned their top recommendations for me and was intrigued by the title: Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine.

I met author, Wendy Wax, a few years ago and just LOVE her and her books. She sent me a surprise in the mail this week….a book for me and a book for a lucky winner!
I am so excited to find out about her new TEN BEACH ROAD releases!
Dick reminded me this week that I haven’t read one of the books he recommended to me and that he had another suggestion. I’m so far behind on my reading! So I asked him if I could use his two suggestions as the “books of the week”. He agreed and and then said “I think people will like them.” … Read More »
I love movies and superheroes. So, during Thanksgiving week I went to see Justice League one night and Thor Ragnarok the next. What a fabulous treat!
Which did I like better? Both were good. However, 2+ hours of looking at Thor will always win. Always. Plus, I love finding movies that I can watch with my teenage boys without steamy sex scenes to embarrass us all.… Read More »
I hesitate to admit this but I’m currently in the Big Apple and it is my 4th time in the last 12 months. I typically save my travel dollars to see new sights but obviously I just can’t get enough of NYC. I went with the DHS Academy of Finance, then on a business trip with my hubby, then my high school graduate wanted to return last summer for his graduation trip and now…I’m with my mom and Aunt who “needed” someone to guide them. … Read More »
I’m in the midst of The Girls: A Novel. 48% finished to be exact. I’ll write a full review when I am done but am curious if anyone has heard of this book or read it? Cults…something that freaked me out as a child. I can remember hearing on the news about J.… Read More »
I read Wonder several years ago and absolutely loved it. My youngest was in middle school then and he needed a book to read. I handed over my Kindle and told him to try Wonder. He’d much rather be participating in an active sport or playing a video game than reading, so I was surprised when he simply could not put this book down. … Read More »

“There are only four states in the country that treat our teenagers as adults when they’re 17, and Georgia’s one of those four states,” said Morgan, who has spoken to many thousands of teenagers, was on the U.S. Advisory Board on Child Abuse and Neglect, and chaired Georgia’s Child Abuse Prevention Panel.

Last night my phone started autocorrecting every time I typed an “I” . The auto correct changed it to an “A” with a symbol. Not only was this making me angry but I was perplexed as to why in the world this would be happening. Well, apparently Apple has a bug.
If you updated your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to iOS 11 or later and find that when you type the letter “i” it autocorrects to the letter “A” with a symbol then here’s what to do……I did it and it works fine now.… Read More »
