#heatofjuly #webelongtogether

Another #90sthrowback from me. This is a very quiet literary novel that develops into romance. Too slow for some but I loved the setting.
Helen is an indie bookshop owner, 42, divorced, smart but maybe a little bitter. One day she finds a unique love letter and feels that #webelongtogether. She tries to figure out who the letter is from and embarks on a new love affair that will change and challenge her.

Centique Apparently there was a movie (which I haven‘t seen) but I think it‘s the writing that makes this book enjoyable, not the plot, so I‘m not sure that would transfer to film well. 6y
AmyG I remember liking this book. The movie not so much. 6y

Great #bookhaul from Second Read Books in St Augustine FL - lovely staff selling used books in a cute store with interesting stock. Am excited to pick up two faves (The Sparrow and Gemini Game) plus a sequel to The Sparrow. Also got a choose your own Austen adventure and a book about a New England bookseller receiving anonymous love letters. Will bring the Evanovich books to the beach tomorrow (tried out Grafton ABCs this trip, now Evanovich #s).

DivineDiana Sequel to The Sparrow!!! 8y

Day 14 ❤ #lovetitles#feistyfeb#aceofhearts ❤ I bought this one in hardcover when it first came out, which was a big deal, since hardcovers were (and still are) pricey (and I think this was before amazon so I bought it in a real life bookstore, no discount), but I loved the premise. I've reread it multiple times, too. Happy Valentines Day to all you Littens - I hope you enjoyed the day with friends/SO's/kids (human and fur)!
