Long time, no blog, eh? But I keep hearing on the Internet that September is the new January (bouquets of freshly sharpened pencils, anyone?), so here we go. I’d like to get back to sharing a little bit more of my life that’s not just artfully curated photos of books and kids. And I spent…

Thanks to a well-timed Fierce Reads tweet, I saw that Goodreads has a giveaway where FIFTEEN arcs of Better Than the Best Plan are up for grabs. So you should definitely go enter asap! The giveaway ends May 3. CLICK HERE TO ENTER! And if you’ve read an early copy, could you do me a…

Finally finally FINALLY finished the first draft of #pizzaromcom and sent it off to my editor. I feel … some kind of way about it. I think it’s good? Ask me later. Read some incredible books this month. Daisy Jones and the Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid. Evvie Drake Starts Over by Linda Holmes. And…

Hi friends! My next book, BETTER THAN THE BEST PLAN, comes out on June 25th from Farrar, Straus and Giroux (an imprint of Macmillan). And it’s available for pre-order now wherever you buy books! I’m super excited for this release, since it’s been … a while … since I’ve had a book out. This one…

2017 has been a real beast, hasn’t it? I won’t even bother listing all the indignities and horrors of the world, because you know (or maybe you’ve forgotten because there have been so many … so I won’t remind you). But through it all, I’ve kept reading. And if there’s to be some bright spots…

I’m starting to get my feet under me with the whole parenting of two kids at once thing, and since today is the first day of a brand new month (when kids in my town started back to school … WHAT?!), I’ve decided it’s time to set a few goals. + Work on my revision…

I’ve given up trying to be productive during the week. I’m basically just at the mercy of the tiny humans, and all I can do is hang on for dear life until I crash in the evenings (they, thankfully, are pretty good night sleepers … we will not discuss the baby during the daylight hours…

I know, I’m blogging a lot lately. Can you believe it? I think it’s that, as I get closer to baby #2 and Freddie gets more independent, that old saying, “The days are long but they years are short” keeps echoing in my mind. It all goes so fast, and I’d really like to have a…

Maybe it’s because we’re closing in on d-day (4 weeks until my due date!), but I’ve been doing a lot of reading lately. I’ve been so lucky to get some incredible galleys of books that I may not have a chance to get to once little brother arrives, and they’ve been making me so happy. And…

I’m still on a high from finally announcing my new book deal, but it’s also been a pretty good week ’round these parts. So here it goes! Macbook Pro I treated myself BIG TIME this week when I ordered a new laptop. But my 6 year old Macbook Air was slowly dying (it held about…
