The Minimalist Home (★★★★☆)

The Less Is More Garden (★★★★★)

Welcome to Bug Bug!

I’m Lorilin, a stay-at-home mom in Chicago who reads books to stay sane. Even though I spend most of my day looking after my lovely and wild children, I always make time to read—mostly fiction, wellness, cookbooks, and lots of books on gardening.

Starting in 2019, I rate all books on a scale of one to five ladybugs, so my favorites will have these little cuties floating by the title 🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞.

Thanks for stopping by, and happy reading!

Things You Save in a Fire doesn’t come out for a while, but, wow, @katherinecenter really brings it again. The book is funny and sweet, tough but still tender. I loved her thoughts on processing trauma and coming to a place of forgiveness. Definitely a must read! . . . #bookblogger #booklover #bookreview #bookreviewer #bookstagrammer #reader #readersofinstagram #fiction #quote #quotestagram #quoteoftheday #forgiveness #thingsyousaveinafire #love

Oh I cannot wait for #spring 🌸🌸🌸 I’m a big #gardener, and I’ll be honest... I’ve been planning my vegetable and flower gardens for months now. In #chicago we can start planting winter hardy veggies starting in April, but I’ll have to wait until May for the perennials. In the meantime, I’m reading my beautiful #flower #books and pining for warmer weather. Anyone else a gardener? . . . . @naomisladegardening @gibbssmithbooks #bookblogger #bookstagram #booklover #bookstagrammer #bookreviewer #booknerd #shelfie #flowerbooks #dahlias #prettyinpink #pinkflowers #womenwhogrow #homegrown #greenthumb #prettyflowers #happyplace #bookshark @booksparks

I finished Normal People by #sallyrooney in three quick hours. I absolutely couldn’t put it down! I love when a book captures me so completely like that.... . . . @faberbooks #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookblogger #reader #readersofinstagram #quotes #bookquote #quotelover #quotestagram #metoo #booklover #truth #freedom

What a FUN book from @calebroehrig 💕💕 I loved it start to finish. So much latex, so little time. 🔥🔥🔥 . . Margo Manning is a teenage socialite who acts like Lindsay Lohan by day and James Bond by night. To most people she’s just another useless spoiled and entitled rich kid. But what only a select few know is that Margo is also a thief—and a damn good one. When her father dies unexpectedly under suspicious circumstances AND one of her con jobs goes terribly wrong (landing her on the ish-list of a notorious mob boss), even Margo starts to feel the heat. She and her team of drag queens have to figure out how to take down her father’s murderer and get the mob boss off their backs, all without getting caught or blowing their cover. If you can’t already guess, much latex will be required. This book is ridiculous. The premise that a bunch of mostly gay acrobatic teenagers go around like Ocean’s Eleven robbing museums and mansions without getting caught is insane. But I’ll tell you what, I loved this book! It is so fun and “out there.” It’s not anything like what I typically read, and while I wish the writing were a little tighter (I could have done with about 50% fewer adjectives and metaphors…), I still loved being swept along on this journey with Mallory and her friends. A must read! #bookblogger #bookstagram #booknerd #fiction #fiewelandfriends #reader #readingmakesmehappy #deathprefersblondes
