The Magic of Lemon Drop Pie | 
so-soI may have liked this more if I read it instead of listening to it. The reader sounded too old for the FMC, and there was too much internal dialogue in the midst of conversations with others. Those things may not have bugged me if I read it. I do love the happy ending though!

pickThis book was so beautifully written it literally brought me to tears. Lolly is at a point in her life where she is wondering what happened - the love of her life is living on the other side of the country, married & living out all of his dreams. She has the opportunity to live out 3 different days in what her life could have been like had she made different choices. I feel like everything you want to happen happens just not when you expect it to.
Love starting my day off with a book and coffee 📚👓📖☕✨✨✨✨✨

pickAn extraordinarily sweet story about what could happen if you chose to relive your regrets and decide which path could be yours. Light hearted, not really my style, a bit repetitive but I enjoyed the concept so it lands on the Pick side more than the So- So side.

pickWho doesn‘t have regrets in life??? What would you do if you could see an alternate version of your life?? This book was a beautiful story about the lemons that life can hand you and how important it is to follow your bliss!! Absolutely loved it!
pickWistful but with some wit and whimsy. I can't decide if I like Lolly, but Aunt Gert was a riot. Grief does funny things to people but I don't see how Lolly got to where she was at 32 - she was just a bit too flat as a character for me to understand her motivations. But, I enjoyed where the lemon drops took us, particularly the use of the second one. And while you'll see the ending coming from the beginning, it's a (mostly) satisfying conclusion.
I like the majority of what I read and typically rate books between 3-75-5 stars (B- to A+). I‘m always surprised when I have a grid 3 or more lower ranks. Thank goodness the tagged was a fun surprise!
5* = Loved It, want to shout out loud about this book! I do/will own/keep a physical copy. A+
4*= I liked it, would love to discuss. Solid B
3*=Meh, no need to discuss. Average C
2*=Nope D
1*=DNF F
pickMy summer TBR was too high to stack this atop it, but the book kept calling me to it. It‘s all sorts of adorable so I have no regrets that another book remains stacked until next year. I love the influence of Joseph Campbell and that his recommendation to follow your bliss inspired the story - added nod to him, not lost on me, when supporting character Aunt Gert was described as a retired professor of theology and mythology :)
pickSweet. Inspiring. Heart-warming. Alluring and wishful.
Basically all the feel good words you can think of, mixed with a touch of pain and grief.
pickLOVED, LOVED, LOVED this sweet read.
THE MAGIC OF LEMON DROP PIE is a sweet, heartwarming, uplifting read with a character you will fall in love with.
A truly enjoyable read that gives some great advice but also a few heartaches. 5/5
