Dinosaur Days

This year I have some friends in my classroom that LOVE dinosaurs. I have never really had a group that loves something this much. Every squiggle, creative writing, and reading choice somehow turned into a dinosaur theme. I of course saw Hope and Wade King’s Jurassic World, and my inspiration came from this unit they did at the Ron Clark… Read More

This book was everything that I needed and more. I didn’t think that it could get better than Layla and Caleb from Mixed Signals, but boy was I wrong! Nova and Charlie are definitely the spiciest couple from Inglewild and possibly the most talked about on the phone tree! Charlie is that sweet boyfriend that you didn’t know you needed and Nova is the fierce businesswoman who knows what she wants. Thankfully what she wants turns into something more. I could not put this book down! Although I know it’s the last book from Lovelight farms, it wouldn’t hurt my feelings if Borison surprised us one day. My love for Lovelight Farms is deep! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. I just reviewed Business Casual by B.K. Borison. #BusinessCasual #NetGalley ... See MoreSee Less

I thought Layla (a baker) and Caleb (a teacher ) were going to to be my favorite couple in Lovelight Farms forever and ever. I saw so much of myself in Layla, and Caleb just really came through for her during this book. He is so patient and kind. Literally ten stars for him. The Inglewood phone tree is very busy in this book and I can’t help but love this tiny town who rallies together for Layla in the end. Couldn’t put it down. #momsthatread #berkleyromance #penguinrandomhouse #romancebooks #romancereader #lovelightfarms ... See MoreSee Less

I read Lovelight Farms at Christmas time and fell in love with the characters. Stella and Luka are precious and I just knew I’d be reading more from this series. Enter Evelyn and Beckett. Y’all they are such a sweet couple. They started off as a one night thing and ended up making their way back together. I love all the background character building to prep for future books that Borison does. She had me wanting so much more of Beckett’s family. (And that comes eventually!) I do think her books in this series go in spiciest order, so this one was fairly tame in my book! Loved it! ... See MoreSee Less

I didn’t realize how much I would LOVE this book. I hope @yulin.kuang writes many more books because I adore her writing. This book drew me in, kept me hooked, and gave me all the feels for Helen and Grant. I loved the friendships, the families, how she handled the main characters anxiety, all of it. A beautifully written story that I’m handing all the stars!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 ... See MoreSee Less
