2021 has been the year I made myself a priority by setting aside time to read. I challenged myself to read 3 books a month and I was able to meet my goal mid-September. I don’t like to read anything too dark. I usually go for light-hearted romance and chick lit. But I have found Colleen Hoover and I’m OBSESSED. They can be heavy but the heaviness is sprinkled in with good so I can read them and not be awake with anxiety all night. If you don’t already use the Goodreads app, I highly recommend it! I use it to track all of my “Read” and “Want to Read” books.

2021 BOOK RECOMMENDATIONS

Edgy Romance

It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover

Verity by Colleen Hoover

The Wife Between Us by Greer Hendricks

Hi! I'm Trista

I'm a wife and a mom of three. I live in Iowa where I spend my time chasing my babies, chugging caffeine, reading books and avoiding the laundry. I'm so happy you're here!

Ben didn’t have school yesterday (but Blaire did!) so my dad took him for some 1-on-1 time and Ben caught some big bass! He had so much fun! I love hearing about his time making memories with his grandpa. And I feel so lucky my dad is retired and loves getting the kids outside! ❤️

AND yesterday was Sloane’s last day of 2 year old preschool. She absolutely rocked this year! I was nervous because she’s definitely attached to me. But she was more than happy to go see her friends 2x a week. I’m so proud of my girl!

We surprised our kids by picking up our puppy a day early! I posted this on Tik Tok but never here. 🫠 I can’t believe we have already had him for 5 weeks! He has almost double in weight… from 4.5lbs to almost 8! #ozzietheminibernedoodle #minibernedoodlesofinstagram #minibernedoodlepuppy @ozzietheminibernedoodle

Today we brought home a new family member. We were planning to pick him up tomorrow but we surprised the kids by getting him a day early! And I heard it’s #nationalpetday? This is Ozzie, an F1B mini bernedoodle! Blaire said our house feels like a home again now with the sound of little paws. 🐾 I 100% agree! @ozzietheminibernedoodle
