January is Walk Your Dog Month!

January is Walk Your Dog Month and what better way to kick start your New Years Resolutions by reading some great YA books that feature dogs?  If you are like me, you love dogs and want to spend more time with them because they just get you.  This awareness month is a great way to help dust off the January blues, read a few good books, maybe go out and adopt a new dog, or if you already have one start taking him/her out for more walks.  It's a fun way to get out of the house and your dog will love you for it! Here is a list of YA books that will have you begging for more! Last Chance by Norah McClintock In this charming YA novel by Norah McClintock, the main character Robyn is scared of dogs—like, really scared. But she agrees to spend her summer working at an animal shelter anyway. (It's a long story.) Robyn soon discovers that many juvenile offenders also volunteer at the shelter—including Nick D'Angelo, a boy from Robyn's past. A boy she hoped to never see again. Ni...

2019 Reading Challenges + Bookish Goals

Reading challenge or no reading challenge? This is a question I've seen floating around on social media lately. At first I wasn't going to do a reading challenge this year. I've done a Goodreads reading challenge every single year since 2009. I'm getting a little burnt out. Than I realized part of my burn out is that I focus too much on the number vs what I'm reading. I get so caught up with how many books I should be reading to hit my challenge. Often I don't even finish the TBR pile of books I wanted to complete. Okay that also has to do with the fact my TBR piles feel like they're never ending. This last year was the first time since 2009 that I didn't read a single book on NYE to try and hit my goal. I lowered my goal this last year to 225 books. That  number is a mix of books read for both Mundie Moms & Mundie Kids. I hit my reading challenge goal the week before Christmas. It was so nice not stressing myself out trying to finish my reading go...
