"To the Farthest Shores" by Elizabeth Camden


If you've followed my blog very long, you know that I read far more contemporary than historical novels, and many of the historical novels I do read are set during World War II. But there are a couple authors who write historical fiction not set during the Second World War whose books I always want to get my hands on, and one of them is Elizabeth Camden.

It's Monday! What Are You Reading? (5-8-17)

Hosted by The Book Date

Happy Monday, and Happy Birthday to my dad!
He is SUCH a good sport when it comes to Snapchat filters!
The school year is winding down (tomorrow is my LAST day with my yearbook class), and the weather is warming up (we topped out at 91° today), and I'm definitely ready for summer!

"Forensic Faith" by J. Warner Wallace


Last year, I read J. Warner Wallace's Cold-Case Christianity for Kids. Even though it's written for kids, I loved it, and I learned a lot, too. So when I heard Wallace had a new book coming out, Forensic Faith, I knew I wanted to read it.

It's Monday! What Are You Reading? (5-1-17)

Hosted by The Book Date
Happy May Day! Not only is this the first day of May, but it's also the first day of my first Whole30. I could be wrong, but I figure that after doing AIP, this should be a breeze. (You can see all of my AIP-related posts here.) Why Whole30? Well, after months of feeling pretty good (perhaps as good as one with Hashimoto's can feel), I've been feeling not great. Not terrible, but not great. I thought about going full-blown AIP again, but that just makes me want to cry. So I'm trying Whole30—which is pretty similar to AIP but allows eggs, nuts, seeds, and nightshades (potatoes, peppers, tomatoes, etc.). The only thing I'm nervous about is Whole30 doesn't allow any sweeteners, whereas AIP allows honey, maple syrup, and coconut sugar in small amounts. And the "treats" are really what got me through AIP. I'll keep you posted as to how it goes!
