WRITING

Welcome to my nook! I’m Molly!

I’m a stay-at-home mom, reader, and writer whose passion is all things books, and all things joy. I hope to encourage all of us to carve out time for ourselves & find that joy, without the guilt – while we chat about books & writing.

Let’s slow down, romanticize the small, and just be together!

stay up to date

Oh, hi 👋🏼 I’ve been MIA for about a month. July was extremely busy for me. We had company for a week, but what has consumed most of my time is a family emergency. I’ve struggled trying to find balance and not using my free time to just doom scroll. But here is me trying to return to normal in the midst of chaos. 🫠

» CURRENTLY READING
I recently started The Dead Lands. It’s a post-apocalyptic story. I have only read the prologue so far so I have zero opinions 😂 I’ve also started the audiobook for Open Season by CJ Box. Have you read any of the Joe Pickett series?

» CURRENTLY WATCHING
Lots of real estate reality shows. Idk why. I guess we just needed mindless drama 😂 Drop any fun, drama filled show recs (reality or scripted) 👍🏼

Don’t hate me but I actually DNF’d ACOWAR. And that was after forcing myself through the first two. ACOMAF was better, but I still wasn’t loving the series.

With that said, my FOMO is getting the best of me & I will probably start the series over at some point. Anyone up for a buddy read or reread with me?!

» if you want more opinions like this, I posted a Fantasy Tropes book tag on my blog (trying to use that more often 😅)

» what was your last 5 star read & describe it in 5 words or less 🙌🏼

All of these books are 5-star reads for me over the years!

Here is how I would describe them in 5 words or less:

✨Last Girls: doomsday prep & conspiracy
✨Starflight: space pirates
✨Vengeance Road: YA revenge western
✨Girl in Pieces: emotional coming of age
✨Wolf by Wolf: WWII motorcycle race
✨The Last She: last woman on earth conspiracy

» summary ⤵

When local girl Loren includes Mara in a traditional Blackfeet Giveaway to honor Loren’s missing sister, Mara thinks she’ll finally make some friends on the Blackfeet reservation.

Instead, a girl from the Giveaway, Samantha White Tail, is found murdered.

Because the four members of the Giveaway group were the last to see Samantha alive, each becomes a person of interest in the investigation. And all of them—Mara, Loren, Brody, and Eli—have a complicated history with Samantha.

Despite deep mistrust, the four must now take matters into their own hands and clear their names. Even though one of them may be the murderer.

» Thank you to @epicreads for sending me a copy of the book.

I’ve been around for a while and have seen how the consumerism, cliquey vibes, and the algorithm have made people feel (including myself). So as your Elder Bookstagrammer, I’m here to give you a virtual hug and tell you ITS OKAY if you don’t meet these arbitrary “requirements”.
