This is classic Binchy, and if you‘re a fan, then I think you‘ll like this novel. A small community in Ireland rallies together to care for a baby. Many of Binchy‘s characters from other novels make appearances. Binchy quickly moves from one character to another in this book, which may add a sense of community to the novel, but also makes it feel more like a series of linked short stories. It is a warm and generally feel good book. ⭐️⭐️⭐️.5 / 5
Soaking in some Vitamin D. Using my new favorite mug, sent to me by my friend @EadieB . I‘m out of quarantine but still masked around people. It‘s HOT today. ☀️❤️📚
My #doublespin for May is up next! I love Maeve Binchy, yet this has sat on my shelf forever. It‘s a gorgeous edition with end papers that match the cover and deckle edged pages, and the title on the cover is on foil (which doesn‘t show in the photo I took). ❤️📚

Today‘s Prompt: Maeve Binchy
Have you read any books by this author?
This actually is the only book I have of hers, but I haven‘t read it.
Noel is an alcoholic with no goals or dreams. Then terminally ill Stella tells him he‘s about to be a dad. This is a feel good book about the families we‘re born into and those we create ourselves. #ReadingEurope2020
This was another fun and entertaining read from Maeve Binchy. It was another visit to so many wonderful characters from her other novels. Her books are a brief glimpse into the characters‘ lives as in real life we only know surface information of people we meet. This book is timeless and a classic that transcends time. I love her books and look forward to reading another. Read as a Buddy Read.
This was a great story, with a great cast of characters. It's a story of happiness, sadness, disappointment, redemption, and friends who become family. #MaeveBinchyBuddyRead

How are you going?
This was the last novel Maeve Binchy wrote before her untimely death, and this made the book far more poignant, especially one chapter in the book. This book was a total rollercoaster of emotions, and resulted in 😢😭 on more than one occasion. So wonderfully written by a truly gifted story writer. I have now read all her novels and will miss Maeve‘s world. This, and all her books, strongly recommended!
#24B42020 20 hrs 45 minutes accumulated.
Starting the last section of the #MaeveBinchyBuddyRead with a heavy heart as this will be the last of Maeve Binchy‘s novels I will read as now will have read them all.
In #24B42020 I am now at 19 hrs and 10 mins.

Time for sleep. 💤
Managed 2 hrs 2 minutes of this book from the start of the #24B42020 Readathon. A good start. Book left me at a 😢😭 stage.
Will post the questions for the #MaeveBinchyBuddyRead in the morning. Held up today by visiting family and a 240 mile round trip.
Just approaching midnight and the start of the #24B42020 Readathon with the next section of the #MaeveBinchyBuddyRead of #MindingFrankie.
Good luck to all those taking part! 😍👍👏😊🥳

This is me trying to read. Not easy. Mr Terrier doesn‘t like it when I place the book on top of him. Big boy is keeping watch. Seems to be dangerous times 🤷🏼♀️🤔😂
Winter Break Day 1- reading Minding Frankie for the #MaeveBinchyBuddyRead and drinking coffee. #coffeeandabook ☕📚😊
