Sometimes, when we read a story for the first time, it touches and impacts our lives forever. A story that did that for me when I read it was Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery. I read the book for the first time in elementary school and have since read it many more times. In fact, my oldest copy is so worn from the number of times I have read it that it is practically falling apart. Since the first time I read it, the story has impacted my life in many ways.

Fall is the perfect season to cozy up with a book, a cup of your fave tea, coffee or matcha and your emotional support blanket. Hmmm...but what to read? While there are tons of types of books out there (and we love 'em all!), we're totally feeling the classics lately. Here's why: There are compelling storylines, robust and unique characters, beautiful imagery and a significant sense of time and place. There's a reason these books have been on people's bookshelves for, well, ever.

With summer and tourist season now upon us there are many ways to take in the lovely outdoor weather. One of the ways that I like to is by heading down to the pier and reading a book. More often than not I like to pick up something that many people would refer to as a 'beach read,' which is a book that is usually fictional that one might enjoy during a vacation or a day at the beach.

June 4, 2024 Katherine Makes You Read Her Favorite Books This SummerHi Bestie!!No preamble necessary: it’s summer, and several mental rambles have led to creating the first Too Loud and Too Old Summer Reading Challenge. An unrelated trivia round inspired me in May; two answers were Anne of Green Gables and The Golden Compass. The steez of these reads is that everything and nothing happens, save for the authors, where it’s a choose-your-own-adventure of high-brow literature.
