#12booksof2024 My favorite read from March
@andrew65

This was definitely my favorite book I've read so far this month, and one of my favorites for the year. Even though Hattie is only 28, she's been widowed for 2 years and is struggling to run the Vermont inn that was her husband's dream, all while taking care of their young daughter. Meanwhile, 3 women (Erica, Claudia, and Anna) have been friends since college and always get together for a week every year. Now that they are all at or close to 40 ⬇

Just started last night. Hasn‘t grabbed me yet. I was hoping for lighthearted but so far it is not that.

A well-crafted holiday romance with excellent character development… lovely relationships between couples, friends and family!

A different head to head monthly setup which I love.

I have a few of these going as they are set up a bit differently and I‘m interested to see if I get the same outcomes.
I loved this book and the characters. 💙
Marcellus wins the battle, however. 🐙 #LitsyLoveReads

I won‘t finish a book tomorrow so I‘ve chosen my final #WeeklyFavorites for February. 💙

This isn‘t my first book by this author and I‘m happy to say this is another pick for me. She really writes her characters well, shows the love between family, friends and couples. The characters are flawed, fabulous, have or are experiencing difficult times and situations. But they‘ve learned, grown and relied on each other.
This was my February #BookSpin book.

This ode to female friendship hit the spot. I loved all four of the MCs and they were all very relatable. I don't think I've read this author before but I will make a point to do so again.

My #BookSpin is the tagged book. The #DoubleSpin number is my #TBRtarot pick. I love when challenges overlap. I also really love clearing space off of my book, ebook and audiobook shelves.

This author writes well written chick lit that may be predictable, but isn‘t too sappy. I read it for my IRL Bookclub #FriendsWithBooks during #Sharreadathon

With a title like that, I had to read it. I‘m letting out a satisfied sigh. This hit all the marks both for a Women‘s Story and for Romance. Three best friends since college are heading to Maple Sugar Inn (a Christmas paradise), though each is at a crossroads in her life and one has a secret motive. The innkeeper is a strong personality herself. You‘re going to love each one of them.

It doesn‘t matter that I read this Christmas-y book after the holidays. It‘s a lovely story of relationships, second chances, and learning more about yourself, which we all need as much as these engaging characters. The setting is so wonderful, I‘m ready to head for a Vermont inn right now, even as a thin-blooded Floridian 😀

Up next on audio. 🎧

I want to go to a cozy inn and talk books for a week with my friends!! #wintergames @StayCurious

Audiobook baking is the best! First batch of cookies- cream cheese cherry cookies my mom used to make. #wintergames

Props to Sarah Morgan for having 4 POV characters that felt equally interesting and all got development! I really loved how all these stories intersected, and the setting was absolutely idyllic for this time of year. Read this for all the cozy family vibes. #womensfiction

This was the perfect Christmas Hallmark style story. It has a strong theme of female friendship, some romance (of the non-spicy variety) and a wonderful setting in a country inn at Christmas time. Three of the four women featured were around 40 years old and at a stage in their life where things were changing (jobs, loves, etc.) and navigating their feelings about these changes added some lovely depth to the story. I really enjoyed it. 4/5 stars

First Christmas book of the season and it is a good one!
