Whenever life gets a little crazy and stressful, and even when it isn’t, my escapist pastime is to read. During the pandemic I read a lot a lot a lot. There were definitely perks to being very pregnant and having nowhere to go. But even now that we’re in the full swing of life with five kids, I always manage to make time for reading. You could say that it’s a vital part of my self-care routine.
In no particular order, here are some of the novels that I’ve loved and many that I keep on going back to. If you’re looking for beach reads, pregnancy reads, flu reads, waiting-for-hockey-practice-to-end reads, or just reading for the fun of it, I hope some of these hit the spot. Enjoy!
