Three of these books were recommended by friends. Yay for recommendations!

From Mexico to Paris, dusty Oklahoma to a lush forest in Pennsylvania, I was awed, angered, amazed, and thoroughly entertained by these reads.

I hope you will find your next read in this group of stories. Continue Reading

Hey reader friends! As promised, I’m bringing back my book reviews this year. The six books I read in January took me down south to rural Mississippi and up north to the Land of 10,000 Lakes. From Reconstruction to present day Twitterworld, I plowed Kansas farmland and hiked the sea coast in the UK.

For me, January was a month of escape, suspense, humor, and empathy.

Reading. I highly recommend it.

May I present, my January book reviews…

My Favorite Reads of 2020

January 6, 2021 By Talya Tate Boerner

I can’t let 2020 completely disappear without providing a list of my favorite reads from the year. I read fifty-five books, and you can see all of my reviews on my Goodreads Challenge HERE (for past years too).

So many books, so little time. I already have a LONG list of want-to-read books for 2021. And the idea that so many fabulous, life-changing stories await, thrills me.

Now, on to my favorite reads of 2020.
