My picks for the November Recommended Books are here & they’re Christmas themed! Well, both of the fiction books are. Yes, there are 2 fiction books. Since y’all are reading this in December, I thought choosing books that had a Christmas setting would be a good idea. I wanted a cute, fun, romance style Christmas-y book. Then it was brought to my attention that that’s not everyone’s thing–even at the holidays. So I made an adjustment: 2 books. 1 cute and fun, 1 murder mystery. (I totally just typed ‘murdery’ and that honestly is totally true too. Haha!) There’s something for everyone here! I went in a totally different direction…

I’m sharing my October recommended books & thinking about Thanksgiving. How. Is. October. Over? I feel like I was just thinking about what I was going to do for my birthday back in April. Time sure does fly by. I guess it’s true what they say, the days are long but the years are short. Anyway…October has three recommended books but I don’t want you to panic. Both of the fiction books go together & you should definitely read them both, one right after the other. I’ll explain more in my thoughts on the books (I combined my thoughts on them into one review). Also, don’t worry. I don’t plan…

I cannot believe we’re in October & that I’m sharing my September recommended books with you. March feels like it was just yesterday. Remember the fiction book from March?! That book was crazy. Anyway… It’s October and that’s unbelievable but I just want to say that I am back to my normal self when it comes to reading. As in, I have motivation to read again. I have no problem just picking up one book after the other. And more importantly, I really want to read. Yay! So happy that my usual reading self is back! I read the fiction book that I’m sharing with you today & and that…

The Recommended Books for August are here! I have to be honest…I haven’t really felt like reading this month. I’m not sure why. When I’m outside, hanging out in the pool, I have no problem reading. But that’s my only motivation. Other than that, not really wanting to read. I read so many books on vacation which I loved but I think that might have just burned me out a little bit so I took a step back & only read a little bit this month. That being said…the books I chose for this month were good! One is perfect for navigating your everyday life and overcoming the obstacles &…

July’s Recommended Books are here! How has it been 6 months of Meredith’s Recommended Book Club?! I can’t believe August is here but let me tell you, July was a FULL month of reading for me. We went on vacation which automatically means a ton of books. I read 5 books during my trip & there were so many good books! A few YA novels & a couple regular novels were a part of my vacation/beach-read selection. I chose my favorite non-YA novel to share with you today. All of these pictures were taken on the beach. It was so fun to mix it up & have a different background!…

I don’t know about you but I always read way more during the summer. I think it’s spending time at the pool or the beach that does it. It’s dedicated time to sit, read, and fully immerse yourself in a book. When I’m at the beach, I can read a book a day. I’m not kidding. I once read a 400 page book in one day. It was a really good book! (It was Panic by Lauren Oliver; a great YA novel.) Whenever we go on vacation, I bring one book per day just so I’m prepared. And I’m not a Kindle person. I prefer actual physical books. I want…

This month is FULL of GOOD books. Both of these books I highly highly highly recommend. This *may* be one of my favorite set of recommended books so far this year. (Did I really just say that?!) Both are easy reads & won’t take you long to read them but you’re going to want to read them without skipping a word. I think we should just get right into these 2 books! Here we go! May Book #1: Communication IQ by Fred & Anna Kendall Here’s the summary: Every so often, we meet people with whom we find it difficult to communicate. For one reason or another, we don’t seem…

This month, y’all. It’s gone by so fast to me! I can’t believe May is here! I think I’ve left the house maybe 4 times in April which has got to be the littlest amount I’ve ever left the house since I got my driver’s license. On the bright side, I’ve had plenty of time to read.  I read 2 books this month. A non-fiction book & a YA (young adult) novel but because I don’t think I have a lot of YA readers reading this, I’m actually going to share a book that has stuck with me since I read it a couple of years ago. It’s a good…
