A blog dedicated to book reviews, recommendations, and literary discussions for book lovers.


ABOUT ME

My literary journey

Hi there! I’m Brandi, a book-loving Floridian currently residing near sunny Tampa. When I’m not sipping on my never-ending coffee, you can find me engrossed in the latest fantasy, contemporary, or thriller novel and sharing my thoughts on them through my bookstagram and blog. I might not read at breakneck speeds, but I savor each book over 3-5 days. Running an online book club has connected me with so many kindred spirits, fostering a growing community of book enthusiasts. As a self-proclaimed “cool” mom (though my daughters might debate that!), I juggle family time, which includes reading, board games, and off-key car karaoke, with my supportive husband and our two adorable rescue pups. Surprisingly, my journey into the world of books didn’t start until 2013, after my first daughter arrived. Prior to that, reading wasn’t a big part of my upbringing – we were all about impromptu dance parties and mastering music trivia. But thanks to a gifted Kindle from my grandma, my passion for young adult romance novels was ignited, leading me down a path full of literary adventures and unforgettable stories.

What can you find in my blog?

In my blog, you’ll discover a vibrant mix of content that reflects my genuine passion for sharing my reading experiences and personal thoughts with you. From insightful book reviews to engaging journal entries, I offer monthly wrap-ups of my latest literary adventures, along with weekly updates and even snippets of my personal life. While I may not claim to be a professional blogger, one thing I can promise is authenticity—I wholeheartedly believe in providing honest and fair opinions on the topics I delve into. Delving further into my creative side, I actively maintain a reading journal that I’m excited to share bits of with you regularly. And if that isn’t enough, I’ve recently delved into the world of junk journaling, and you’ll get a peek into that journey as well. So, expect a dynamic blend of bookish musings, personal anecdotes, and creative endeavors when you dive into my blog.
