Top Ten Tuesdays: Bookish Resolutions/Goals

farmto table

Top Ten Tuesdays is a meme that was started by The Broke and the Bookish in 2010 and has been moved to The Artsy Reader Girl in 2018. 

Every year, many people make goals. You’ve probably even made some for yourself. “Eating healthier” or “exercising more” maybe just a couple of examples. I usually don’t set goals for myself because like most people, I don’t usually stick to them by the end of the year. However, I did set some reading goals this year.

Here are my top ten goals for this year: Read the rest of this entry

Interview with Varina Denman

Interview with Varina Denman

Happy Friday Book Lovers! I’m excited to have Varina Denman with us here on the blog today about her newest novel, Looking Glass Lies.

About Looking Glass Lies

imageA poignant and relatable novel, Looking Glass Lies captures the war women wage against themselves, and the struggle to see beauty reflected in a mirror not distorted by society’s unrelenting expectations.

For most of her adult life, Cecily Ross has compared herself to other women—and come up short. After a painful divorce from her emotionally abusive husband, Cecily returns to her hometown of Canyon, Texas, looking to heal.

But coming home isn’t what she expects. In a town as small as Canyon, her pain is difficult to escape—especially with her model-perfect ex–sister-in-law working at the town’s popular coffee-shop hangout. With help from her father, a support group, and an old friend who guides her to see her own strengths, Cecily may have a shot at overcoming her insecurities and learning to love again.

The true test comes when tragedy strikes, opening Cecily’s eyes to the harmfulness of her distorted views on beauty—and giving her the perfect opportunity to find peace at last
