I am all about boy craziness and book boys – like I talk about swoony book boys a lot. […]

However, I am very much looking forward to Christmas and think I’m already going to start planning out some holiday reads!! Are you a big holiday reads person? If so, please do tell me what you’re reading because I’d love all your recs! Favorite Things in October: […]
