    We Are Pirates | The BBRBF Book Club

    Much like my day, this book was a disaster. But I’m getting ahead of myself. In this sixth (?) installation of the BBRBF book club, don’t forget to read the reviews of Sara, Noelle, Lyndsey, Helene, and Katherine! Helene chose this month, although she had also suggested The Girl On the Train, but due to my library not having that in stock, We Are Pirates by Daniel Handler was on the board. As always, the synopsis, via Goodreads: “A boat has gone missing. Goods have been stolen. There is blood in the water. It is the twenty-first century and a crew of pirates is terrorizing the San Francisco Bay. Phil…

    Fangirl: The BBRBF Book Club | outfit

    Fangirl Welcome to another installment of the BBRBF Book Club! This month, we read Rainbow Rowell’s Fangirl,  which in my opinion needed a girly, sweet outfit to go with it. Lucky for me, this gorgeous Grace Karin dress arrived just in time! Don’t forget to check out Sara, Lyndsey, and Noelle as my fellow BBRBF members, and welcome Helene and Katherine as our two newest members! As always, here’s the synopsis via Goodreads: “Cath is a Simon Snow fan. Okay, the whole world is a Simon Snow fan… But for Cath, being a fan is her life—and she’s really good at it. She and her twin sister, Wren, ensconced themselves…

    What Alice Forgot | The BBRBF Book Club + Outfit

    Well, this book review is SUPER late in the day because it’s been a long crazy week and we have a million things to do this weekend and I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed. But Sara and Noelle and I are reviewing What Alice Forgot by Liane Moriarty this month, so on I go! As always, don’t forget to check Sara’s blog and Noelle’s blog for their reviews and outfits! We all had different covers this time, which makes it super interesting. Side note, I will be making a BBRBF Book Club book review newsletter if you want to sign up for it, so keep your eye out for that! It…

    Gracie’s Song | Book Review + Outfit

    Far too long ago, Michelle Schlicher contacted me to see if I would like to review her newest book, Gracie’s Song. Of course, I’m not one to say no to a free book, so here we are! I took a little too long for my liking to read and review this, since I’ve had the book for over a month, but we’ll blame teething babies for that. As always, here is the synopsis via Goodreads: ““Everything can be undone.” That’s what someone tells Gracie Brannen, but she’s doubtful. After graduation, she walked away from everyone she knew with barely a word. Ten years later, she’s back. Even as familiar places…

    The Portable Veblen | BBRBF Book Club Outfit

    Welcome to the second installment of the BBRBF Book Club! If you missed our first read, click here, and be sure to check Sara Lily’s and Noelle’s blogs for their reviews! If you want to join us, next month we’ll be reading Life After Life by Kate Atkinson. This book review was difficult. Not because I didn’t like the book, but because I nearly didn’t get the book. When Sara first suggested The Portable Veblen by Elizabeth McKenzie, I did what I always do and checked my local library to see whether the current holds on it were crazy, or if I could get it right away. When I checked,…
