I’m a little bit of a Jane Austin nerd. Pride and Prejudice is on the short list of books I’ve read more than 3 times (it’s a very short list), so when I heard about Jo Baker’s Longbourn — a look at the world of Pride and Prejudice from the bottom up — I had to read it. (From Goodreads)… Read More
What I’m Reading
title: Balanced author: Tricia Goyer genre: Non-Fiction thoughts: Amazing. If you are a WAHM you need this book!!!

What I’m Reading
title: Longbourn author: Jo Baker genre: Historical fiction thoughts: This is an interesting book — it’s taking the Bennetts’ (yes the Pride and Prejudice Bennetts) house staff and telling their story. I just started reading it last night so I’m literally only pages in. The verdict is still out on this one. I’ll have a full write up in… Read More
