There is nothing better than curling up by the fire with a good book during the winter season. Okay, maybe add a cup of coffee or hot cocoa - but you get the idea. Most of us may have goals this year to read more or have less screen time. While self-help and mindset books are great uses of our free time, fiction fun is also a good idea. We’ve got a few books in our Amazon carts to purchase and read! We are excited to dig into these soon and wanted to share.
