100 Things To Do In Cleveland Before You Die, 2nd Edition Book Review

I LOVE everything about Cleveland! The history, the sports, the weather … well, maybe not that last one.

I’m in downtown Cleveland almost weekly attending events, meetings, or just exploring the city with my family. While I was born and raised in a suburb of Cleveland, I know that there are still many hidden gems that I’ve never visited. When my friend, Tonya Prater, co-author of the book 100 Things To Do In Cleveland Before You Die, 2nd Edition, sent me a copy of her NEW book, I couldn’t wait to see what was inside. After reading it, I discovered that she and her co-author, Deb Thomas spent a lot of time finding a treasure trove of places to see in and around the Cleveland area.

100 Things To Do In Cleveland Before You Die, 2nd Edition is the ultimate guide to finding the best things in the city and, for life-long residents, new ways to explore old favorites. It has information to help you find the best food, festivals, museums, outdoor activities, and more.

What I love most about this book is that it’s a easy read. The book is divided into 100 mini chapters highlighting a different place or event on every page. As a busy mom, who doesn’t get to dive into books as much as I would like, this is perfect for a few quick reading sessions.

Looking for unique places to visit in Cleveland? You’ll find it in here! Did you know where you can purchase a hot dog with chunky peanut butter on it? You’ll find it in the book! Want a list of the unique festivals that happen throughout the year? Yea, it’s in there too! I love that it offers so many places that Cleveland residents may not have tried out as well as highlighting the top places to visit for Cleveland visitors.

If you love to shop, be sure to read the fashion section. You’ll enjoy reading about all that Cleveland has to offer. Want to find places that the whole family will love? The sports and recreation is full of places to visit and what to see at each destination. Don’t skip the index which has suggested itineraries and activities by the season.

Seriously, I’m keeping this book in my car so next time we are in town, we’ll be able to explore with purpose. If you don’t live in the Cleveland area, 100 Things To Do In Cleveland Before You Die, 2nd Edition will have you wanting to pack your bags!

100 Things To Do In Cleveland Before You Die, 2nd Edition is available on amazon and wherever books are sold.

Oh my goodness, my sister and I had an absolute bl Oh my goodness, my sister and I had an absolute blast last night at @playhousesquare! 🎭  The @choirofmanusatour is here through Sunday, March 8th, and you do not want to miss it. Get there early because before the show even starts, you can actually go on stage, interact with the cast, grab a beer at the pub-style counter, and maybe even dance a jig or two. How fun is that?!  Once the performance begins, get ready — this toe-tapping, high-energy production will have you moving in your seat from the very first number. You’ll recognize a lot of the songs, and you might even discover a new favorite. I absolutely loved the traditional folk song!  And fair warning… this show is very interactive! Audience members can get pulled on stage — like my sister, who was serenaded by one of the cast members! Such a fun and unforgettable moment.  If you’re looking for a fantastic night out, this is it. Great seats are still available — go grab yours! 🎶🍻  #choirofman #choirofmanUSAtour #broadwaycleveland #clevelandmom

🎺✨ Oh what a night! I caught the brand-new nationa 🎺✨ Oh what a night! I caught the brand-new national touring revival of Meredith Willson’s classic @musicmantour last night in Akron at E.J. Thomas Hall for the @broadwayakron series and I’m still smiling!  This crowd-pleasing, six-time Tony-winning musical follows slick charmer Harold Hill, a fast-talking salesman who rolls into town planning to swindle the locals with promises of a boys’ band he can’t actually deliver. But his perfectly polished con hits a snag when he meets Marian Paroo, the sharp-witted librarian whose sincerity and heart just might turn this lovable rogue into someone real.  The whole cast brought it last night from the high energy dance numbers to the tender ballads. The stars @elizabethdaiuto and @craigfirst were phenomenal delivering powerhouse vocals magnetic chemistry and performances that lit up the stage from start to finish.  The energy, the costumes, the choreography, the music - pure Broadway magic on tour! If you love big classic musical numbers, charming comedy, and feel-good storytelling, don’t miss it.  🎟 One more performance TONIGHT (Feb 19)! Great for the whole family!  #BroadwayAkron #musicmantour #akronohio

Last night at @playhousequare, I experienced somet Last night at @playhousequare, I experienced something unforgettable. ✨  Seeing @suffsmusical live was deeply moving, soul-stirring, and powerful in a way that stays with you long after the curtain falls. I cried several times. Not quiet tears, but the kind that come from feeling seen, shaken, and inspired all at once.  This Tony-winning musical tells the true story of the women’s suffrage movement in the United States, over a century old, yet aching with relevance today. It captures the courage, the conflict, and the cost of fighting for a voice. These women marched on Washington, protested outside the White House, endured hunger strikes, and risked everything for a future they might never personally benefit from. And watching it unfold through a brilliant, all-female cast makes the story hit even harder - raw, urgent, and electric.  What struck me most is how alive this story feels. This isn’t history trapped in the past—it’s a reminder that progress is loud, uncomfortable, and often born from persistence when hope feels thin. Suffs doesn’t whisper its message; it sings it boldly: change only happens because people refuse to give up. It left me inspired, emotional, and reminded that voices, especially women’s voices, have always mattered, even when the world tried to silence them.  This is a must-see!  Suffs is at Connor Palace through Sunday, February 22nd, and tickets are still available. Trust me, go see it. Bring tissues. Bring friends. Leave changed. ❤️  #hosted #BroadwayCleveland #SUFFStheMusical #SUFFSTour
