The Bookcase Beauty

Huge Kindle announcements, book cover reveals, exclusive travel discounts, and Halloween costumes for the bookworm all in this week's newsletter!

Happy Friday!

There was some big news in the book world this week and I'm already dreaming of next summer's books! Check out what's happening and let me know your thoughts!

Over here in baby world, we're nine weeks out from meeting our little guy. We've been hard at work putting together a nursery to welcome him home. I'm working on putting together a blog post of all the nursery and baby registry items we're using. In the meantime, I've gotten a lot of questions about where I found his dresser.

​This is the dresser we bought him. It'll be a great transition piece into adolescence and teen years!
