I used to share a monthly favorites post and stopped during our move because it became a little overwhelming!  Collecting my favorites through the month seemed more difficult in all of the upheaval and chaos of the move and renovations.  I am finding my stride again and realize I miss sharing my favorites.  I considered starting to share them again in the same format, but I decided to change it up and start something new.  Instead of sharing them monthly, I’ll share them weekly as four things – What I’m reading, what I’m watching, what I’m loving, and what I’m working on.  In this format, I can share things when they are fresh and in little bite-sized chunks for my readers.  So, here we go with the first Four Things… what I’m reading As I shared recently (in THIS POST), I typically read several books at one time, so in
