    Bald Is Beautiful: A Letter For a Fabulous Girl

    So, Bookworms… I have something different for you today. Most of my book reviews have been Adult, YA, and NA in various fictional genres. Today we will be venturing into a children’s picture book! Bald Is Beautiful: A Letter For a Fabulous Girl is written by Carola Schmidt and illustrated by Dian Ovieta. It gives support to little girls who are going or already have gone bald due to illness, genetics, etc. It’s a love letter of support in the simplest forms of a picture book. It doesn’t hit you with words that are hard to understand but rather uplifts you into understanding you aren’t any different from anyone else…

    Bed of Roses Author Meet

    Much later at posting this than intended but I’ve been in hardcore study mode… It has been a never ending heatwave with unbearable temps but it finally included a not so hot breeze. And a shopping trip out of town with my Mother included a stop at Books-A-Million. Win! The current book haul from Books-A-Million was a very special one as it included meeting an author and getting a book signed! A Bed of Roses by Ann Marie Jameson is the first book in the Willow Rose series. The series and the author are new to me. The description alone makes me want to see this become a Lifetime movie.…

    Summer hasn’t come to an end yet but we are hitting that summer peak. Can you feel that heat? I bet you can if you live in the South!

    Making Time As a Bookworm

    A while back there were quite a few people in the reading community asking other readers (otherwise known as bookworms) how they make time for reading. Amongst that was also the topic of self care and social media burnout. Before adulting happens (unfortunately it does happen!) the life of a bookworm is filled with libraries, bookstores, book clubs, etc. No matter how hectic your schedule is there is always a way to make time for reading as well. Not to mention being able to read for 12 hours straight or longer! Bathroom and meal breaks are allowed, of course. Let’s not forget parents having too much concern about too much…

    Author Shoutout – Rebecca Lange

    Shoutout to Rebecca Lange, author of Grandfather’s Will, for being a great author and an awesome person to talk to! If you aren’t already following her on Instagram then I assure you that you will want to. Even if you aren’t a bookworm she is worth following. She posts some of the funniest memes that I have ever seen online. She is interactive with her followers and is an all around great person. Please don’t forget to show authors some support by purchasing their books and leaving a book review. A book review doesn’t have to be lengthy and it can simply be a star (multiple star, of course!) rating.…
