welcome to the blog!

I’m Olivia. I started The Daily Dose with Liv, a lifestyle blog, for modern career gals who are still figuring it out, but who also love a good book. The purpose of this blog: we’re all in this together. This lifestyle blog is a daily dose of lifestyle, books, and pop culture. You’ll find blog posts on life in your 20s, recaps and reviews, and books. Whoever you are and whatever you may like and wherever you’ve been, this blog is for you.
