📚 Mom on a Mission: Tackling my TBR list
👩‍👊‍👊Juggling motherhood, reading & life
📖 Escaping reality book at a time
POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED
📚✚ 10 Before the End! ✚📚

2026 is slowly coming to an end, but my TBR isn’t getting any shorter! 😂

I’ve picked 10 books that I’m hoping to squeeze in before we say goodbye to 2026! Will I read all 10? Will I get distracted by 37 other books along the way? Probably. 🀷‍♀📖

But we’re going to give it our best shot!

QOTD: What’s ONE book you’re determined to read before the end of the year? 👀💕 by @chaptersandcuddles

Life is chaotic, my TBR is never-ending, and there will never be enough hours in the day. 😂📚

But one thing I CAN control? Making time for the stories that bring me joy. ❀

Sometimes all it takes is a good book, a warm cup of coffee, and a little escape from the things I can’t control. ☕✚

💬 QOTD: What’s one thing you do for yourself that brings you peace when life gets chaotic?

Books and football. 📚🏈❀💙 Two completely different worlds, but somehow both have me emotionally invested, full of anxiety, and questioning why I willingly put myself through this much stress. 😂

𝘞𝘊𝘭𝘀𝘰𝘮𝘊 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘊 𝙉𝙀𝙒 𝘏𝘰𝘶𝘎𝘊, 𝘉𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘎 𝘔𝘢𝘧𝘪𝘢! 💙❀

The wait is officially over! Today, we are opening the gates to the brand new Highmark Stadium, and you already know the 𝘜𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙚 𝙈𝙖𝙛𝙞𝙖 𝘜𝙀𝙀𝙠 𝘜𝙖𝙗𝙚𝙚 are ready to shout! 📖🏈

We are kicking off this inaugural season by turning the page to a whole new chapter of Buffalo football. We #BILLieve this team has everything it takes to go all the way. The offense is ready to 𝘟𝙀𝙀𝙠 up some absolute masterpieces on the field, and you know 𝙅𝘌17 is about to deliver all the highlights we could ever ask for. We are ready to 𝙆𝙣𝙀𝙭 the competition right out of the stadium, and you can bet our opponents will be 𝙎𝙝𝙖𝙠𝙞𝙧-ing in their boots by halftime!

📚🏈 And because no Bills Mafia Book Babes game day is complete without books, I put together my very own Bookish Starting Lineup! I paired some of my favorite Bills—past and present—with book prompts inspired by the things that make them them. From JA17 getting my QB1 read, to Shakir bringing the dog love, Bass representing the cats, McGovern serving up something I absolutely devoured, and Fitzmagic bringing the shirtless energy 😂  every player got a bookish assignment. Swipe through to see my picks and tell me what books YOU would put in your starting lineup! 💙❀📚🏈

Whether you’re reading on the sidelines or jumping through tables in the parking lot, let’s make this historic inaugural season an absolute page-turner.

Let’s go, Buffalo! 🊬✚

🏈📚 FOOTBALL IS BACK! 📚🏈

Order has officially been restored to the universe, and apparently my football season TBR needs a starting lineup too. 😂

For someone who loves football AND romance, I’ve realized I haven’t read nearly enough football romances! So I went shopping on my own shelves and pulled five that are ready to get some playing time:

🏈 Too Hard to Forget
🏈 The Defender
🏈 Coach
🏈 The Cheat Sheet
🏈 The Wall of Winnipeg and Me

Some have been sitting on my TBR for way too long, so maybe this is finally their season. 👀

📚 And apparently my class superlatives tell you everything you need to know about me: romance will always earn extra credit, Meghan Quinn is responsible for disrupting class with laughter, The Last Letter emotionally destroyed me, and Matthew McConaughey somehow made it onto the syllabus. 😂

Of course there had to be a mountain romance in here—automatic A+ from me. 🏔❀ And because I apparently enjoy stressing myself out between all the happily-ever-afters, The Last to Drown gets the award for keeping me up WAY past my bedtime.

Of course I had to put a romance-reader spin on this one! 🌲✚

For my trip into the folklore woods, I turned some of my favorite romance tropes into their own little fairy tale elements—from friends-to-lovers wandering through The Forest 🌲 to fated mates finding their story written in The Stars ✹.

Because really, what are romance tropes if not our grown-up version of once upon a time and happily ever after? 💕📖

Husband vs. Bookstagram: ROUND 2. 😂📚

Last time, I tested his knowledge of bookish acronyms. This time, I covered up the titles and asked him to guess the book based solely on the cover.

Mostly no hints
 although I did tell him when a book was a thriller because apparently this man thinks everything I read is smut. 😂🌶🔪

Swipe ➡ for his guesses vs. the actual titles.

Every book we pick up is a sandcastle—an intricate, wondrous world sculpted from millions of tiny grains of thought. They are fleeting, magical spaces where we can escape, if only until the final chapter closes.

And the authors? The libraries? The late-night reading lamps? They are our lighthouses. 🧭 They stand steady against the crashing waves of reality, shining a bright, guiding light to make sure our wandering minds always find their way home.

Whether you are diving into a dark mystery, a sweeping fantasy, or a cozy romance today, remember that every page is a shore waiting to be explored.
