    Shotgun Lovesongs

    Shotgun Lovesongs is the story of four childhood friends from a small Wisconsin town. It is a novel about love, friendship, success and growing up in a small, fly over state. This book has so much Midwestern culture that I could smell the farm fields, taste the stale keg beer from the local VFW, hear the distant trains passing on the old iron tracks, and feel the cold bite of winter air. Butler is a storyteller and his novels are always incredibly atmospheric. Shotgun Loveson

    In My Dreams I Hold A Knife

    In My Dreams I Hold A Knife by Ashley Winstead was a total #bookstagrammademedoit and I have no shame in admitting that, because I am so glad I picked it up. This psych thriller set on an elite college campus had killer character development (pun intended..), a searing plotline and an atmospheric setting. I thoroughly enjoyed it and it kept me guessing until the bitter end. This one is perfect for spooky season reading. Synopsis: A ten year college reunion drudges up the past

    What I Read on Maternity Leave

    The last few months have been an absolute blur. I still can't believe I have a three month old babe to show for it. We had family pictures done when he was three weeks old. They were chaotic, sweaty, long & frustrating, but somehow they turned out amazing (compliments of Sara Haley Photography | Twin Cities, Minnesota and beyond.) Here are a few of my favorites: Reading has taken on different forms for me in this season of life. Audiobooks have been my friend, as well as my K
