Photographing the most beautiful libraries of the world seems like a solid way to spend a decade and I’m very, very jealous. See all the photos here and get ready to drool.

My reading wishlist is starting to feel like the pile above. I’m working on this one currently but so many good reads, not enough time!

Are you on the hunt for a good book? If you want to feel equal parts inspired, empowered, grateful and in awe I recommend reading Half the Sky. The book was bought for me by a friend and I’ve been reading it every night, often sharing parts out loud with the Red Head. And, while camping this weekend, I read an entire chapter aloud to my pals. I’m about 2/3 of the way through and plan to watch the documentary next. Do yourself a favor and check it out.

The big 3-0 brought some gooooood reads into my life, thanks to awesome family and friends. Now, the question is, which one to read first?

– J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows –
Anyone else feeling this? September is the best.

After two weekends of back-to-back travel and a busy week of life catch-up, I’m hoping to carve out some time this weekend for a good ol’ fashioned reading session. Seems like such a simple ask! I realized since I last updated you on my literary adventures I finished Modern Romance (gets a thumbs up from me!), Brooklyn (maybe the movie is better?) and We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves (not sure what to make of this one). I’m just about done with Why Not Me and powering through The Nightingale so send some new recommendations my way!

For the last few years I’ve been lucky enough to grab sneak peeks into the works of Princeton Architectural Press and whenever a package from them arrives at my door I tear it open instantly! I imagine my friends and family have started to do the same when they see a letter from me (hopefully) because, more often than not, my sloppy handwriting is scrolled on a piece of Princeton Architectural Press’s stationery. The Thoreau set above (available March 1, pre-order here) arrived amongst the snow this week and has been the perfect excuse to sit down, clean up that handwriting and throw a little bit of love and beautifully-design paper into the world. Good work, PA Press, good work.

I’ve really hit the ground running in the book department this year. My longer commute has become opportune time for audio books (thanks, Jillian!) and quiet winter nights are simply made for reading by the fire. I’ve added the four above to my completed list and am working on Brooklyn and Modern Romance currently. Because I have the attention span of a fly, I present you with very brief recaps and thoughts on the above works. Send any other book recommendations my way, please!
The Boys in the Boat – Very descriptive. Might have shed a tear at the end. Maybe.
China Rich Girlfriend – Better than the first one.
Paper Towns – No thank you. I can’t get into John Green books.
Let’s Pretend This Never Happened – A good laugh. Full of hilarious Texas anecdotes.
Clearly, I was never a book reviewer in a past life…
