Book Review: A Very Typical Family by Sierra Godfrey | The Importance of Never Losing Hope
Natalie’s been passed up for a promotion, lives with a clingy best friend, and dating a man that’s B-O-S-S-Y (always making decisions for her). I didn’t want to be with her in this moment. Let’s be real. It sucked (lol).

Book Review: How to Be a Better Adult by Jacque Aye | This is Not a How To Guide, It’s a Journey
How to Be a Better Adult is a book that expresses most, if not all feelings that many people experience while navigating their work and personal lives. It’s a quick read with a relatable main character trying to make sense of adulthood. Truthfully, most of us reside in a similar headspace (lol).
