She has everything she wantsexcept marriage, children, and a house in the country. Amber Winslow has a stone mansion in Connecticut, two kids, and a nanny. She loves her husband and her children, but that doesn't mean she cant fantasize about a taste of something a little more...exciting. When a single Londoner and a Connecticut mother get the chance to walk in each others shoes for a month things are bound to get interesting. But as they quickly learn, wanting something and actually getting it are two entirely different things... From the Trade Paperback edition.

I watch #TheHoliday pretty much every year, and never get enough of:
* The charming, funny young actresses who play Jude Law's daughters
* The stupidly gorgeous Jude Law
* The even more stupidly gorgeous, talented, brilliant Kate Winslet.
* The late, great Eli Wallach who was mesmerizing and deeply affecting in performances from stage to screen. ❤️

All of these amazing swaps are happening right now, and I‘ve been dying to join one. The fall/Halloween swaps sound like so much fun!

But we‘re moving in three weeks (eep!) and the timing is just bad. So, now I‘m sad.

LibrarianRyan Well if your a maker you can join the maker swap. We don‘t open boxes til December. 6y
ravenlee @LibrarianRyan I‘ve been considering that, but I‘m having trouble coming up with an idea for part of it. Might do it. 6y

1. Quick and easy #chicklit reads are my guilty pleasure (the tagged book being one of them). Intend to read a lot of them during summers at the beach
2. Chick flicks. Bring it on, because I said so, and most wedding movies
3. Milkshakes!!!
4. It's almost not Tuesday anymore so anyone who still wants to do it!

 @BookwormAHN this will be on it's way to you, soon! I don't wanna post any reviews until after this is all over, but I will say I'll be heading back to the library in hopes that the hardcopy of one of Green's books is still in the for sale section! 🙈 I almost bought it, but then I got scared. Theennnn I finished this and realized going out of your comfort zone isn't all that bad! 😄💜

✨After a long day of repotting my plants (also possibly bought two more- they're kind of like books for me. I cannot stop myself), I'm gonna get comfy with this out of my comfort zone book! 🤗 I love stepping out of my little zone every now and then.💜
✨Also, please excuse my horrid handwriting in the beginning 😂 I learned road trips aren't good for this kind of thing! 🙈🤷 @aroc

Soubhiville I‘m a plant addict too! All outdoors for me, because my cats will chew indoor ones. It feels so good to get your hands dirty! 7y
abbsinwonderland @Soubhiville Yes! It was a very stressful day today trying to find the soil I need (I mostly have succulents) and it was really hot today- but when I finally got home and got to repotting them I felt sooo much better! I have a few outside ones, but they were here when we moved in. I'm not sure what they are. Tulips I believe, some ferns and some kind of bush, and another flowering bush but I can't remember the name of it. Beautiful tho 7y
Soubhiville I had to leave my potted succulent garden in TX when we moved to TN. It gets too cold here for them. If you post photos tag me! I‘d love to see them. 7y
abbsinwonderland @Soubhiville I'm in Nebraska! So I've been very surprised with mine- I didn't think they'd make it. I just posted a photo! 7y

✨When I said I was sick of the snow, I wasn't really wanting the snow to be replaced with wind. 🙈 I'd just like some nice, sunny weather (spring, I think it's called?) so I can plant my flowers. Buuuut no. It's so windy and dusty out so instead I'll do what everyone else does when you can't go outside. Read. 🤷😆

Cailey_Mac I just have the windows open and I‘m pretending it‘s perfect weather; at least it‘s sunny and warm! 7y
abbsinwonderland @Cailey_Mac it's not sunny here at all. Blackout conditions from dust! 😭 but it's warm! 😂So that's a plus. 7y
Cailey_Mac @abbsinwonderland awww that‘s terrible! And at least there‘s one silver lining! 7y

Hey #LPMBC #GroupC, any of these sound out of your comfort zone? I love Jane Green and I think one of her books would be fun!

Anyone interested in a swap? Here's some books I'd love to swap with someone to try something different.

TheWordJar I'd love to swap! Anything in particular you're looking for? I can try to get some titles together tomorrow morning if interested! 8y
MaleficentBookDragon @TheWordJar that would be great! I'm willing to try new things; I'm just not feeling very chick-lity. 8y
TheWordJar How about thriller/mystery? I've got a few of those and some others in mind now....I'll snap a pic in the morning! 8y
MaleficentBookDragon @TheWordJar sounds great! My email is chellerydz@gmail.com to swap addresses. (edited) 8y
