Hello everyone! Last week was pretty nondescript around here – it was just busy with a lot of just life things which were not super exciting. I barely even got a chance to read.
I did read one book!
It was cute, but not…I am not sure. It was cute. I love the concept of a baby dragon cafe in a cozy fantasy, but it was not the best written book I have read in this genre. Perhaps the author is still finding her voice. I am willing to give this series another chance with the second book, which comes out I think next week, although I probably won’t be reading it for a while, since I will be moving on to my fall TBR!
This week:
My goal is to finish these two books this next week or so, to finish up my summer reading.
Posted Last Week:
Top Ten Tuesday: Books With a High Page Count
Short Classic Reads for Autumn Eves
Watching:
What have we been watching? Hmm. Not much. Billy worked a lot this past week because of some big project they had to finish, and I hate watching shows without him honestly. So I watched a lot of YouTube at night. I should do a big round up of YouTubers I like soon, maybe. I am actually getting closer to the idea of starting my own, but I am having a hard time deciding on what all I want to do with it, and I don’t think I have the right equipment. That is something I am going to explore this fall.
And that is it from me today. Not the most exciting update! I hope that whatever you do today you do something that makes you smile!
Still Life, With Cracker Crumbs.. 
I go through stages of watching more YouTube than anything. And I have written reviews of YouTube content. It feels like the wave of the future.
Do you know about Useful Charts? I think that might be a good channel for homeschooling: https://www.joyweesemoll.com/2025/07/25/usefulcharts-ytreview-brifri/

My husband and I usually latch onto a series that has a few seasons, and, if one of us is missing, we must wait to watch on.
I’m drawing a line through Baby Dragon’s Cafe. Hope you find book two (eventually) to be a bit better.

A quieter week is always a nice change. I have been getting sucked into watching Facebook Reels which has lately been feeding me a lot of bookish things which hasn’t been good for my TBR pile. Come see my week here. Happy reading!

OK, I just finished The Willows, and I’m thinking, “What in the world did I just read?” That was the strangest yet creepiest book ever…I almost would like to see a movie made from it, or do I? The scene I would love to see is when those black things go into the heavens. We watched Unbelievable and truly binge watched it. I’m like you…there are some things I’ll watch by myself and others I want to watch with Mike. I started The Hunting Wives Club and thought…nope, nuh uh, no way!

I don’t like watching a lot by myself when Mr has to work evenings either! That’s when I tend to really collect the reading time, haha … But I’m very curious about YouTubers you like! I’ve started a channel, but it’s very baby-steps and mostly features shorts of my chickens, LOL

I don’t watch TV on my own, or hardly ever – I think I’m not that interested in it and I am fortunate that Matthew tends to like the same things I’m interested in, or will give them a go – he watches a lot more than me as is tougher so can watch upsetting or violent stuff! I wasn’t keen on those baby dragon books – I will go as far as the Legends and Lattes ones but no further into fantasy, I feel (I have the new one via NetGalley!).
