Read This for Inspiration, by Ashly Perez

It's been a challenging week. The sort where you're ready for a weekend...and it's only Tuesday (you know the kind). This is when I find myself scrolling social media for inspirational memes featuring cute animals, colorful flowers, motivational quotes, or all of the above. 

This is why I was so happy to discover Ashly Perez's wonderful new book, Read This for Inspiration. This book is like all the best inspirational memes all packaged together in one book. There are bright colors, positive affirmations, and empowering stories (My favorite was the one about kintsugi, the Japanese art of mending shattered pottery by filling the cracks with gold. The moral being sometimes things have to break in order to become even more beautiful). This book is so filled with positivity! If any book could hug, it would be this book. Definitely a case of coming across the perfect book exactly when I needed it most. I just love when that happens...don't you. The only drawback is it isn't longer.


Are YOU having a rough week too? Or just need a pretty book to browse? Read This For Inspiration is for you. You can currently find it on the New Book shelf. And if it's not there, ask your friendly librarian to place a hold for you (they'll gladly oblige).
