Best Books of 2019

December 31, 2019December 31, 2019 / Kim @ Traveling in Books / 16 Comments

I had put off putting together my 'Best Of' list for the year, as I had a couple of new-to-me titles I wanted to read before bidding farewell to 2019, and I didn't know how they would be. But after a lazy winter Sunday with no plans and a snowstorm that kept me home all … Continue reading Best Books of 2019

Book Haul, via Iceland

October 31, 2019October 27, 2019 / Kim @ Traveling in Books / 7 Comments

I don't buy many souvenirs when I travel. My photographs serve that purpose well enough for me, and I pack so lightly that I don't have room for extra things. But I will seek out bookstores wherever I go and buy myself a book or two, and I try to find books that relate to … Continue reading Book Haul, via Iceland

Sunday Sum Up- September 29, 2019

September 29, 2019September 29, 2019 / Kim @ Traveling in Books / 7 Comments

Well. Last week was a weird week. I made plans. I intended to carry them out. Life had different plans-- like a flat tire that wiped out my Monday evening. Fun. Also, I had Mina the Kitten spayed on Wednesday, and the vet told me to limit her activity for 7-10 days. Can someone tell … Continue reading Sunday Sum Up- September 29, 2019

Sunday Sum Up- September 22, 2019

September 22, 2019September 21, 2019 / Kim @ Traveling in Books / 2 Comments

Well, I'm back. I made it to Iceland and back again, safely, and with very little jet lag, the five hour time difference notwithstanding. Iceland was amazing (as expected), and I had an even better time than my first trip there. It helps that I was completely healthy and not dealing with a nagging ankle … Continue reading Sunday Sum Up- September 22, 2019

Sunday Sum-Up- September 8, 2019

Want a good way to confuse your smartphone? Live 1,000 or more miles from the nearest ocean or sea and download an app that tells you when tides will be high or low. Watch it try to find the nearest beaches and give you locations in both Massachusetts and Texas. Tidal schedules will be more … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up- September 8, 2019

August Summary and September Preview

September 2, 2019September 1, 2019 / Kim @ Traveling in Books / Leave a comment

August was a solid reading month, though I didn't pick up two of the books on the TBR stack from the beginning of the month. Oh well. I got through most of the books I intended to read, plus the three ARCs I needed to finish before their release dates in September. Good job, me! … Continue reading August Summary and September Preview
