That's the thing about books. They let you travel without moving your feet.
-Jhumpa Lahiri

Some people, like my sister, do not like reading, while others like myself find so much pleasure in it. Where do you fall in the mix? Reading is one of my favorite hobbies.. why? Well truth be told, for multiple reasons. First, just like Jhumpa Lahiri said in the quote above, books let you travel without actually leaving - even though I really would LOVE to leave and physically travel. They bring you back in history or carry you into the future, or you can read about present day things. I really like reading a variety of books, but my favorite kinds include mystery stories, guidance through life, romantic stories, and of course the Bible. Because I want you to share in my love for books and growing through the process of reading them, I want to share with you some of my favorites. So here is a list of all my recommendations - click the name and go buy it directly!

Lets go shopping
Just like any other girl, I like to shop and just like most any other college student I am short on the whole money thing so I "wisely" shop at less expensive stores such as thirft stores or places like TJ Maxx and Marshalls. Since I know what it is like to be on a budget, but yet have a desire to shop, I figured I'd share my favorite stores with you.

Now I know what you are thinking... "Trader Joe's and Target are not exactly cheap places." I agree, they are not. However, Target does have very cute clothes and sometimes very good deals and Trader Joe's has my absolute favorite yogurt ever - banana! Therefore, I justify myself shopping at these stores and I hope you can too!

Turn up the music
Christian / Country / Pop
Music is one of my favorite ways to worship the Lord, relieve some stress, or just have a good jam session or dance party.
I use Spotify Premium mostly to listen to music, but I find all the good and new songs on Youtube and as a benefit a personalized playlist was made for me with all me favorite songs.
