If you know me you know my love of books. Okay! I admit it, my obsession with books!
I have often said that, if I am not reading a book, I can literally feel my brain cells going to sleep or experiencing a slow, painful death. My 'to read' book pile keeps steadily growing along with my 'to purchase later' list. You know your's does too! I cannot resist a good book recommendation. I have no self control. I love books.

There's something magical about getting lost in a good story or diving into a fascinating topic, isn't there? Whether it's fiction or non-fiction, books have this incredible power to transport me to different worlds or expand my understanding of the one I live in. There's nothing quite like the joy of learning and discovering new perspectives through the pages of a book. Most of my mentors have come from authors who have met me in my joys as well as my sorrows. Their voices have put words to questions I did not know I wanted to ask. Their stories have given color to my own lived experinced. I have felt seen, understood and known by strangers who have become treasured friends.
I'ts both magical and mysterious. A blessing of sorts that arrives time and time again as I open the covers of a brand new book, paper-fresh and full of possibilities.
As I mentioned earlier, I'm always on the lookout for new reads and would love to share that excitement with you. How about we spend the summer together, lost between the pages of a good book, immersed in learning, resting in the joy of words and ideas?
After every book finished, I will share my review with you here. I will also place the link on the website for easy purchase. Would you also share your thoughts and recommendations in the comment section below?
Summer is almost here, yay! Let's embark on this literary journey together!

we find ourselves there too - anonymous
