As a “new” blogger, you scroll through Facebook groups or things like Bloglovin’ in the hopes that you’ll find the secret formula to monetizing your blog enough to be able to blog full time. I could probably scroll through my newsfeed right now and find three or four “How I made $XXXXX in my 5th […]
Reading Resolution Round-up
If you recall (or if you’re new to Adventures In Nonsense), it was a resolution of mine to read two new books every month in 2018. My goal for 2017 was to read one new book a month, and I kind of blew that one out of the water. What can I say? I love […]
Bucket List: Music
I’ve tried to get better about willing to spend money on things that I want to do. In 2017, that meant going on some solo dates to concerts. There have been a few coming across my calendar this year. Unfortunately, I seem to have conflicts for a few of them. Regardless, it should be documented […]
The Couple Next Door by Shari Lapena
A book hasn’t grabbed me this immediately in a long time. I think the last book to do this was The Good Girl (still one of my favorites, and you should definitely read it). However, I think The Couple Next Door by Shari Lapena may be the best book I’ve read in 2018 (So far. There’s still […]

Life After Life by Kate Atkinson
Gillian Flynn on Life After Life: One of the best novels I’ve read this century. Kate Atkinson is a marvel. There aren’t enough breathless adjectives to describe LIFE AFTER LIFE: Dazzling, witty, moving, joyful, mournful, profound. My heart breaks a little reading such positive thoughts from one of my favorite authors about this book. Kate Atkinson […]
Obsessed: Erin Condren LifePlanner
It’s no secret that organization is one of my favorite things. I used to get a new planner at the start of every semester in school because I liked to start fresh. In my adult life, as a daily planner got less “necessary”, I started to feel a little lost. Who are these people who […]
