That's What He Read: My Husband's #BookStack

One of the best things that my husband and I have in common is reading. Before I came along, the last book he read was a pharmacy text book so it's safe to say he enjoys reading for fun instead of cramming for exams.  He's mostly interested in crime/thrillers but loves a few historical non-fictions as well. I thought it would be fun to share what he's been reading lately!  Top  3:  Killers of the Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI ,  by David Grann   Since We Fell by Dennis LeHane  The Shack by William Paul Young Other Recommendations: Live by Night by Dennis LeHane  Kill Shot by Vince Flynn  All is Not Forgotten  by Wendy Walker  Widow-Maker by  Paul Doiron   So there you have it! What are you reading ?

Your Kids' Summer Must Have: A Little Fun Club Subscription Box

There are a couple things that my daughter Reese loves above all else. At the top of her favorites list: Books (she gets it from her mama) and mail. She LOVES checking the mail every day and begs me to let her open packages.  So, imagine her delight when she received a box  from the super cute company, Little Fun Club. Does her face not say it all?  Little Fun Club  is a subscription box for children's books. It's ideal for kids ages 0-12. When you sign up, your child will receive a box containing three adventurous books every month. The books are tailored to your child's age, so you can rest assured they will always have quality, age-appropriate reading material. Each book is hand selected for your child, and no two boxes are the same.   We received three books, two for Reese: Sparky by Jenny Offill and George Shrinks by William Joyce and The Hardy Boys, The Tower Treasure chapter book for Ryder. They were thrilled. The awesome thing about this
