Spring 2020 textbooks are starting to arrive and I'm pretty excited! Grad school is kicking my butt, but I am loving it nonetheless! #gradschool #newbooks #textbooks #busybusybusy
What have you been reading lately that you love?? Looking for some suggestions!

It has been a whirlwind of a few months and haven't been on here in ages. I've been busy finishing up one masters degree and moving on to a second in clinical mental health counseling. Life has been stressful to say the least, but oh so rewarding! Two weeks until break and you can bet I'll be back to my for fun reading!
Re-reading this gem 😍
Hey, Litsy! It has been a hot second... My life these days consists of continual reading for class. Currently working on this gem!
Self care night 😍
A week of good news... 1. I got to start a new course for grad school! 2. I got into my dream professional clinical counseling program and start in June. Needless to say, both reading time and coffee consumption are about to go way up! 😂🎉
Say it louder for the people in the back! 🙌🙌🙌 Hi, you are wonderful just the way you are! You are uniquely and importantly YOU! Do not compare yourself to other people!
Lately I've been focusing more on how to be gentle with myself. Anxiety is a rough one, guys. However, this book is giving me a glimpse into the fast paced world we live in and how it perpetuates feelings of unease. To my fellow anxious humans, hang in there! You are amazing! 👏👏👏
Just read this book in one sitting and I am left feeling so unsettled. I don't know how Samanta did it, but each and every page had me getting more and more tightly wound. If you are looking for a read that is confusing and unsettling - this is definitely the one!
Already hooked! This is most certainly going to be a sobering read, but it is a story that needs to be told! #goodmorning #coffee #reading #currentread
Circe was SO GOOD. Onto the next short loan that I picked up from the library today! #bathtubreads #bookandbath
Finally onto the book I have been anxiously waiting for! I have heard so many wonderful things about this one!
Finishing one and moving to another! Thankful for slow Sunday afternoons filled with coffee, baths, and reading! #bathtimereads #bookandbath #coffee
Anyone else a little too obsessed with baths? 🙋 #bathtimereads #bookandbath #coffee
Why is it that all books you put on hold at the library end up arriving at the same time? 5 new books. All short loan and nonrenewable 😂 anyone think I can make it through all of them in 2 weeks?
Doesn't get much better than this 😍 Coffee and a book before I head into work
New day, new book! Up next from mount TBR: Ghost Wall!
Finished this one today and I must say, it did not disappoint! Loved the book!
Anyone else bullet journal? How do you include your reading in weekly, monthly, or special spreads? #bujo #bulletjournal
Up next from my TBR pile. I've heard so many good things about this book and can't wait to dive in!
January wrap-up and MAN... There were some good books this month. Hopefully that is a good sign for the rest of 2019! Ironically, there were 2019 pages read in January!
Today was a much needed day filled with reading. Car won't start due to the cold, everything is closed... But hey, I finished a full book and am on to the next! 🎉

Flying through this book... Such a good read ?
It feels like -50 out... So you can bet I'm staying in, putting on a warm onsie, and reading most of the day #Wisconsin #cold
So... All of my holds at the library came in at the same time and I will be reading nonstop for the forseeable future. For those keeping track I now have 14 books checked out 😅❤
Well, Wisconsin is pretty much closed today due to Winter Storm Beth... That means a day filled with coffee, music, reading, and nowhere to be 😍
Finished off some wine, had a cozy evening in the bath, and made progress on a book? Does it get any better? #bathtubreads #bookandbath #wine
It feels like -25 outside, so you can bet I'm spending the day off in my warm bed reading 🙌
Snow meant comimg home early from work which means #bookandbath 😍
So excited for this advance copy 😍 I have a feeling I'm not going to be able to put this one down!
Taking this weekend to be an introvert and take care of myself and I could not be any more excited 😍 #selfcare #anxiety #lotsofreading #bathtimereads
Some nights call for a solo trip to your favorite wine bar to read 🙌🍷💙
I may have gone a little overboard and checked out 8 books from the library this week... But I mean, is that so wrong? 😬
"Don't try to behave as though you were essentially sane and good natured. We're all demented sinners in the same cosmic boat - and the boat is perpetually sinking."
I have somehow never read this! Took a trip to the library today and picked up way too many books... Looking forward to lots of reading this year!
What were your favorite holiday reads this year?

Enjoyed a nice Christmas break, but now it is time to get back into grad school studies! First class this semester: family resource management.
Some light evening reading 😅 Learning more about how to love and care for children who have been through trauma. #psychology #therapy #trauma
New wine from wine club AND a new book? Sounds like the perfect combo 😍
MAT: check!
All that is left are these essay questions! Counseling school is within reach - finally 😅
Any psychology, mental health, or counseling book recommendations you guys have?
Got a KitchenAid as an early Christmas gift so now my life pretty much consists of baking and audio books...
Today's bake: pistachio and dried cherry biscotti
Today's book: Insomnia by Stephen King
