This was the wildest op shop I have ever been to. Heaps of foreign languages & the 🎶 was fantastic. It was like a rave was happening & it was in an industrial area. I will get my clever friend to make me something out of the Prints Charming fabric on the left and to fix the👗for me. The top is quite big but I just loved the Mexican look of it. The bird book 🦅 will end up as Xmas decorations. I thought the forest book was gorgeous for my niece.

Now is that time of year where we‘re all #frozen and hoping Summer Will Show. It‘s so far off though. 😆

This one sounds like a wild ride. Sophia has sent her cheating husband off to another county to be with his mistress. She focuses on her children, but when the children die, she is unmoored. Sophia ends up in Paris, where she befriends her husband‘s mistress.

This sounds riveting but I hated the one Townsend book I‘ve read. #winterwonderland

Cinfhen, TrishB

Cinfhen Riveting?? I say depressing!!! Like your creative interpretation 🤓 5y

Reggie Yikes, this book description. 5y

TrishB Not familiar with this author! 5y

so-so

Partly enjoyed it, partly bored by it, this story of Sophia‘s journey from mother to revolutionary was just ok. #1001books #nyrb

vivastory I haven't read this one, but I loved

Lolly Willowes

JenniferP @vivastory I‘d be willing to try another so I‘ll keep that in mind. Thanks! 6y

Found a used bookstore with a resident kitty friend! I also found several Brookner novels. 😏 I ended up purchasing a copy of The Luminaries (based on @Billypar ‘s review) and a 1936 copy of the tagged book.

saresmoore @ReadingEnvy I‘ve yet to disprove your Brookner theory! This is a book exchange in Waynesville, NC, near Lake Junaluska—neat little town. 6y

AmyG I loved The Luminaries. FYI-it‘s a very slow, meticulous read....and it‘s wonderful. 6y

Lindy @AmyG I agree; meticulous and wonderful. @saresmoore , it might help to keep in mind that the length of the chapters keeps decreasing by half, until they get very short. 6y

Bookwomble Cute kids and cat ? Have you read Warner's "Kingdoms of Elfin"? If not, you should! ?

Kingdoms of Elfin

RealBooks4ever Kitty paws! 🐾😻 6y

saresmoore @AmyG @Lindy Well, I do like slow and meticulous! I was pleased to find a secondhand copy in great condition—eliminates the anxiety of library fines for a slow reader like me. 6y

saresmoore @Bookwomble I haven‘t read it, but I certainly will! Thank you! 6y

Leftcoastzen Cute photo , love bookstore kitties and of course , your girls are adorable! 6y

Cinfhen Sooo happy to see the girls!!! 6y

LeahBergen I really enjoyed The Luminaries (and I have the tagged book stacked). 6y

2BR02B Ah, to be a bookstore cat must be a charmed life indeed. 6y

Billypar Excellent- eager to hear what you think of it! 6y

tracey38 I love when stores have resident fur-friends. There is a used book store near me that has some dogs. I haven't been yet but it's on my list to do soon! 6y

ReadingEnvy @saresmoore my favorite nc mtn bookstore town other than Asheville is tryon...if you need another destination! Is this one that you are at down one street from the main drag, lots of books in piles on the floor, and no A/C? 6y

saresmoore @ReadingEnvy That‘s the one! Ha! Great description. I will check out Tryon if we get another day added to our evac. 😅 (edited) 6y

emilyhaldi ❤️❤️❤️ Luminaries has been on my list forever! (edited) 6y

BarbaraBB The Luminaries is probably my favorite read this year up to now. I hope you‘ll love it as much. And @emilyhaldi you should read it too indeed 😘 (edited) 6y

saresmoore @BarbaraBB Well, that‘s encouraging! @emilyhaldi Buddy read? After Villette? Have we lost our minds? 😆 6y

BarbaraBB @saresmoore So much better than Vilette 😩 6y

rubyslippersreads @emilyhaldi and @saresmoore I also really enjoyed The Luminaries. And I want to read the tagged book as well, @LeahBergen 6y

LauraBeth Well dang - based on these comments - I really need to read The Luminaries! 6y

emilyhaldi LOL, yes perhaps we have!! But I AM ready for Villette whenever you are 🤗 6y

saresmoore @LauraBeth Haha! Litsy peer pressure! 6y

saresmoore @emilyhaldi We plan to try and get back home tomorrow. Want to start Villette in October? 6y

emilyhaldi Ahhhhh yes you are going to be very busy over the next several days/ weeks! Great news that you plan to go back so soon 🤞🏻 October is perfect for me! 6y

Just started this lovely novel, which I had to buy the minute I finished Lolly Willowes 😊
I'm hoping New York weather will take the hint and finally warm up 😹😹😹
