First #friyayintro in a LONG time! Glad to be back in the reading & Litsy gang!!
so-so⭐⭐⭐The writing was straightforward and an easy/funny read. I felt validated at many times throughout the book. The only thing that was challenging was the timeline of everyone's stories. For example, at one point Mary was lusting over Brian then suddenly 5 chapters later, it had been 2 years later and she was engaged. I loved Isabella and really related to her story. Lauren always had me laughing. #14bookchallenge #book6of14 #catsoflitsy
#YouAreCordiallyInvited is such a fun episode! Jadzia is a much better match for Worf than Troi. It‘s the breath everyone on DS9 needed to take after several very serious episodes.
The tagged book is one of the few books I‘ve read about weddings, and I think I‘ve read it 2-3x. I was never one of those girls who looked at bridal magazines, and I wasn‘t the friend you‘d take dress shopping. 🤷🏻♀️ #StarTrekSummerJune
pickGreat book and one I probably wouldn‘t have read if it hadn‘t been recommended. Girls in White Dresses is a series of interlocking short stories; you get to follow a group of women friends through their 20s. They navigate careers, relationships, and families-of-origin as they figure out what it is they want in life. Very relatable!
so-soAt first this book really annoyed me with its writing style being all over the place but then I grew to like it. There's a lot of characters to keep straight but by the end you're really rooting for them all. This book kind of reminded me a little bit of sex in the city in the best ways. Girls finding love and themselves in their 20s...who doesn't love a good "love" story, even if it is about loving yourself?
Back in the office after a week away and starting a new book after playing catch up! Not quite sure how I feel about the style of this book yet, but hopeful!
Morning reading while #Bitsy is on cat duty 😹

My sister gave me this book after she moved away and I was having a hard time dealing with it. I lived this book about female friendships in your 20s and early 30s.
pick4🌟When I read this 3 years ago, I gave it 3🌟. The women in these stories are my age and remind me a lot of my college friends. Even though I've diverged from my college friends, I still saw a lot of my 20s and early 30s in the stories. The ones who married early and divorced or had kids. The broken engagements. The ones who, like me, are still single. I think most women in their 20s or 30s can find one women to relate to. PS I'm Lauren.
My first year as a veterinarian was terrifying. It didn't help that I had a bad mentor/boss. It's weirdly comforting to know people in other professions feel the same.
By now y'all know what I do when I'm nervous: read short story collections!!! These are the three I'm reading now. Any suggestions would be appreciated!! #ebc #shortstorylove
pickFirst read of the day got me through hour three of my #24in48 #readathon! Funny, honest, and filled with more than one deeply recognizable post college dilemma (like remaining cheerful during your 6th bridal shower...for the same bride). A breezy and enjoyable summer read - particularly on audio!💍🍷👰🍸👗👯
In college, 29 had seemed impossibly old. By now, she'd thought, she'd be married and have kids. But as each year went by, she didn't feel much different than she had before. Time kept going by and she was just here, the same ⏳💭
