pickThis was a light, fun read. The hero has a significant disability, and yet the author showed us how attractive and worthy of love and acceptance he is. The heroine is not thin, or pasty white. She has a full figure and a diverse background. Bravo! Even better, they figure out what they want out of their lives as individuals before getting married.
pickA fun read, Ben has survived the Napoleonic Wars but is now crippled. He offers to escort a widow to her home in Wales, so she no longer has to live with her oppressive in-laws (hence The Escape). He doesn't think he has anything to offer her, she doesn't want to feel that she has to be "proper" any longer. Of course, they fall in love. #LitsyPartyofOne
Pizzas here and I'm almost done with the book! #LitsyPartyOfOne
Dishes are done, just enough room in the dishwasher for dinner dishes (and I'm planning on pizza delivery and salad, so not many dishes there). Going to finish this and then we'll see where I go from there. #LitsyPartyOfOne
Woke up late but thought I'd better take the time to charge all my devices before work. I can't truly have my #LitsyPartyOfOne until later but On Fridays I usually have a chance to read a little at work. Choices, choices.
Spent the evening at my sisters as she was helping me get tickets put together for a fundraiser our church does every year and I was short on time. Now I'm going to relax in a hot bath with this gem and then call it a night. #book&bath
I can't say that it's a #mealthatIlove but it's what's for lunch today at my desk. It's certainly healthier than what I usually eat! #17booklove
pickAs someone who doesn't normally read romance but does enjoy Jane Austen, I absolutely loved this book. It was so sweet and lovely. The plot felt natural and wasn't overly done. Just lovely. Thanks Get Booked Podcast!
After the intensity of the day and finishing Ugly and Wonderful, I'm going with some lighter reading.
So my library system is doing a reading challenge called A Year of Reading where we read specific book genres or types throughout the year. Surprise surprise, February is Romance!! Now...romance isn't really my thing, simply because I haven't found "my thing" with romance (other than Austen related items...and the occasional rom com). My goal is to read more romance this month, so if u have suggestions for me, I'm open!
I realised I have 2 Mary Balogh Survivors' Club on the pile and a third in the library book bag. None are the first one, but I think I should start on the earliest I have in the interests of reducing the pile!
