Mehso-so

I liked that this book was written and set in 2000-ish (oh the days of the internet being new), and that there was equal levels of financial power. I didn‘t like the MC all that much, but it was a cute story.
A mysterious handy man running from his past meets and falls for a chocolatier in a small coastal CA town.
2/5 fun but both MCs are not as flushed out as I would have liked & I want more about the chocolates! Read for some 2000s nostalgia

Another #24in48 in the books! So happy with how this readathon went - I finished 5 books, am close on finishing a 6th and made some decent progress on an audio. Now time to clean up my disaster of a house after leaving trails of glasses, bowls, blankets, etc. all over the place for the last two days.

And with 20 minutes to spare, I did it! This is my third readathon and I couldn‘t manage to get past 18 hours before, so I‘m pumped! For my stats, I read 2 full books, completed 3 others I had in progress before the ‘thon, and listened to several hours of my audiobook. #24in48

And now I‘m going to go make celebratory brownies. 😬

I completed my 2017 reading goal with a month to spare! Aside from setting a number goal of 60 books, I also set a goal to intentionally add more diversity to my reading this year. Since I am white, cis-gendered, and straight, I was looking for authors and main characters that were POC or LGBT. And I did pretty well there too.

Female authors: 26
Male authors: 34
LGBT/POC authors: 19
LGBT/POC main characters: 24

It's official Littens!!! Read Em and Eat has moved to its own domain! Welcome to www.reademandeatblog.com !!!

No_One Cool blog! I like your Oct 14 post. Classic introvert. I am the same. We only have so much "social energy" to give and when it's gone, it's gone and it's time to recharge...... alone. Extroverts gain energy from being around others, but introverts lose energy from being around others. It's good you can recognize your need and handle it without apology! ? 7y

5 hours to 2017 but I'm calling it. Here are my 2016 stats. I flew by my goal of 108 & last year's 135 books-thanks to Litsy & audio books. And, here's my 2017 vow to write my Goodreads reviews within 24 hours of reading the book. When I went through my lists to pick my 2016 best, I found I didn't write over 25 ratings/reviews, mostly audio books. Guess what I spent my day doing?!😁But I'm caught up now & ready for 2017! Happy New Year Everyone!🎉

LauraBrook Happy New Year, Deb! 💖🍾 8y
