The year is coming to an end, and I always like to share my favorite books from the year. This year it was a very tall order to find books that would keep my interest while I was focused on my children at war, my country at war, my hostages in captivity, my displaced neighbors… Read More Romi’s Reading Roundup for 2024
I admit that it’s a bit unfair. You have got to write quite a book to keep me engaged and reading these days. If I find my mind wandering to the news or to worries about my kids, our country, our soldiers then I’m out. Book put aside. I finished a book today that just… Read More 6 Great Reads
I love the visual road map that Goodreads provides. These last few months have not been an easy time for me as a reader (or as a human) and I’ve had to apologize to many books.

I love how Goodreads keeps track of the books that I read – since I barely remember if I’ve finished something or what it was called. I’m one of… Read More 100 + Books from 2018
I have a lot of fun books to share this time! But first, I want to discuss subscribing to the blog. As I mentioned in my last post, I just moved over to WordPress. In doing so, I lost my subscribers, and I’d love for people to get notified when I write a new blog… Read More Romi’s Reading Round-Up for June and July
As many of you know, I love to read. Love might be an understatement. And while my life is crazy busy and I’m almost always harried, I find the time for those books. For about six months now, I’ve been writing a periodic list on Facebook of my recent reads and have enjoyed the banter… Read More Romi’s Reading Roundup
