My Bookish Life

        Hello guys! How have you been? I hope you all have been good. I know it's been a minute since I posted but I have been kind of busy. That being said I do have two books to talk about so this is going to be a pretty long post. With that being said let's get started!  Title: The Aviator's Wife Author: Melanie Benjamin Genre: I think it's historical fiction. Pages: 416 Rating: 3 stars Synopsis: When Anne Morrow, a shy college senior with hidden literary aspirations, travels to Mexico City to spend Christmas with her family, she meets Colonel Charles Lindbergh, fresh off his celebrated 1927 solo flight across the Atlantic. Enthralled by Charles's assurance and fame, Anne is certain the aviator has scarcely noticed her. But she is wrong. Charles sees in Anne a kindred  spirit, a fellow adventurer, and her world will be changed forever. My thoughts on the book: I think Melanie Benjamin did a really good job. I liked her writing style in this book and she ...

I just love how it feels out here today! The sun is out and the birds are singing. The wind is blowing a little bit but that just makes it feel nicer.   I have all of my house work done for the day so I wanted to take a bit to show you guys my April TBR. It's an extra long one so I hope you all enjoy it. Now let's discuss these books!     First up we have The Aviator's Wife by Melanie Benjamin. I have already read most the book. I'm reading it for my new book club. It's ok so far . Not the best but not bad and I do think some of that feeling could be because I'm not liking one of the main characters!   After that we have Saga Volume 10 by Brian K Vaughn. If you have been reading my blog for long you know this is one of my favorite comic book series and I have reviewed most of the series ...

We stayed from Thursday to Sunday and had a blast. Also, if you stay at the Arbors Inn Hotel they have cute little reading nooks that yes I did enjoy while I was there. It was very peaceful!

This is going to be an extra-long post though because you are go...

           Hello guys! How have you all been? I hope you have been doing good. I've been kind of stressed but I'm chilling out today. I'm actually setting outside while I make this blog because it's so sunny and it feels good. Plus, it's so peaceful!     So for the record, I have decided not to even review the last book that I read in February. It was Conspiracy: The World's Greatest Collusions and Cover Ups by Mike Rothschild. It was a 1 star read I hated it! Alot of it was the exact same stuff that was in the World's Worst Conspiracies by the same author. That's why I gave it a 1 star! I'm just done with it and I have moved on to March's TBR and my March reading plans! So yeah that's why there really wasn't a review of that one!       Now let's discuss this month's reading plans! First off, I am starting a reading challenge. It's called the Clear Your Back Log Challenge and mine is going to go for 90 days. During those 9...

Now, we are chilling for the rest of the day.     While I have some down time, I want to get this review done because I have been meaning to do it for a while. I have my watermelon drink and I'm chilling so I'm ready to do this.
