I decided back in June, that it was much easier for me to share a quarterly (ish) book review post, than trying to keep up with what I'm reading monthly. It's as much about letting books accumulate as it is about having the time to read and then actually write something about the books I'm reading. My to be read pile is growing infinitely larger, so I'm trying hard not to purchase any reading material these days. I have picked up a few things from the library, I have several things in my audible queue already, and I have a fairly large stack of previous BOTM selections that have been ignored for too long. The good ...

It's been a really long time since I posted about reading. Pregnancy and postpartum life just didn't allow for that kind of brain space and now that I'm chasing a moving target, I'm not sure it's much better. I am getting better about using my time wisely, though, and that has meant reading a handful of chapters or listening to an audio book while I work or clean. I'm still not back to my pre-pregnancy volume, but I am starting to remember why I used to make time for this. It might be awhile before my monthly totals are anything to write home about, so in the mean time, I'm planning to write a quarterly post with my ...
I’d Rather Be Reading
This post contains affiliate links, which may result in a small commission if you click through to purchase. I was so thrilled to be chosen as a part of the launch team for Anne Bogel's newest book I'd Rather Be Reading.

I'd Rather Be Reading than: working, driving, sleeping, folding laundry, cooking dinner, dealing with dramatic middle schoolers, preparing for maternity leave, waiting on baby, checking off my to-do list, grocery shopping, unpacking boxes... basically everything on my list except for snuggling our new baby (NEXT WEEK!). From Amazon: For so many people, reading isn't just a hobby or a way to pass the ...
2017 Reading Recap + Goals for the New Year
Affiliate links appear in 2017 Reading Recap + Goals for the New Year. Any purchases made using these links will earn Taz + Belly a small commission. You can read more about our affiliate relationships here. I knew I wanted to do an annual recap of everything I read this year, but for whatever reason, it seemed really daunting. I loved both of the recap posts I shared at the beginning of 2017 (What Should I Read Next & 52 Books In 52 Weeks), but I wanted to do something a little different. I'm taking cues from them both, listing everything I read this year (with links and ratings) below, and giving you a breakdown of the numbers -- because we all know that I have a thing with infographics, even if this one is less graphic and more info. Favorite Book of 2017: This is How ...
