Inspiring Books I Read Over the Holidays

January 20, 2022

For most of us, the holidays are starting to seem like a distant memory! Time sure does fly when you’re having fun….I took it really easy over the holidays and spent most of my time lounging/ lifeguarding by the pool while the kids basically lived in it. This gave me lots of time to read some inspiring books!

I chose my holiday reading stack really well!

I enjoyed each and every page – so much so that I read all 6 books in the last 3 weeks! And because I’ve enjoyed them so much, I thought I’d share my thoughts on them over here. So bookmark this post if you are keen for a new read!
