How to Start a Fire | 
Came back from a week away and found this beautiful package in my mailbox. I love it! No one ever gifts me books. And I love this author. This is like a big warm hug.
❤❤❤❤❤ 🤗😘
Thank you so much @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks !!!! You are such a thoughtful friend.
Thanks @Laughterhp 😁 Got this in the mail today!
pickOne of those books were nothing really happens... you just follow the lives of three women and the ups and downs of the friendships. I liked it, but didn‘t love it. I do, however, love this book cover.

pickThree women meet in college and remain unlikely friends through two decades. Surviving men, kids, jobs, heartbreak, death, alcoholism, abandonment...that takes a pretty strong bond. And though tested, this novel portrays the necessity of friendship (and a sense of humor) above all else. 4⭐️

pickI read this a while back, and I LOVED it. So, so good. Everyone knows people like these characters. Definitely must read.
pickRoommates Anna & Kate find a passed out Georgianna on a lawn one night, they wheel her to their dorm room in a shopping cart. Fast forward twenty years later, as they gather around a campfire and relive the past twenty years and pull us into the complicated bond these three women share.
Fantastic read! 🔥🌟
Half way through and loving it. Brought it into work to sneak a few chapters in at lunchtime. ☺️

I love audiobooks, so I've decided to take the #24in48 #roadtrips prompt & choose 3 books where people take trips. Bandit, who was my road trip buddy, is presiding.
How to Start a Fire - This book starts off with a road/camping trip that bonds the three women.
The Lowells of Massachusetts - If Perceval Lowle hadn't sailed to America, there would be no Boston Brahman family.
A Hundred Thounsand Worlds - A mother and son take an eventful road trip.
Why am I so obsessed with this book? It's a weird love. The narration is excellent, but the characters are pretty unlikable. The story structure is interesting, but there are better ones. This is my fourth library checkout/casual listen. I'm really baffled. 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
Day 15 of #riotgrams : It is virtually impossible to surprise me with plot twists, making today's theme a particular challenge. Luckily, DH noticed the spine decoration of How to Start a Fire. Presto—a twist! Also luckily, being twist-resistant doesn't diminish my love of mysteries. #favoritetwist #booklover

The book shows you experts of three women throughout their friendship. What's great is that the friendship is believable. It's not perfect but it feels real. There's a certain type of suspension that is also placed throughout the book. Like there's something hiding in the pages.
I must admit I find this true sometimes, especially when I'm deep into a re-reading phase. (Like now!)
Still in re-reading mode. I just love the narration of this book!! I don't think I'd like it nearly as much as text.
pickLast update 4.5🌟 I was concerned this audiobook would be difficult to follow because the plot jumps to different points in time, but it really wasn't. The narration is superb! Three women become friends freshman year in college 1993, and it follows their lives, weaving in and out of different times and characters, until 2014. They weren't always likable, but I did root for these women.
The two books I'll be listening to on my drive to SC tomorrow!! Excited, nervous, hopeful! 😃😎 Getting up at 4 AM tomorrow, so I'm headed to bed soon. See you this weekend (hopefully) Littens. 💙💜💚❤️ I miss it here so much.
so-soI would have enjoyed this book more if it hadn't skipped around so much. It was very distracting.
bailedI'm just bored and I have too many books to read to stick with one I'm bored with
Sometimes her only response to a question is "I don't plan to answer that."
pickThis novel's main focus is on the ups and downs of strong female friendships. I will admit, I have a special place in my heart for novels with plots like this one. I recommend this book for any woman of any age 😊
pickThis is a very entertaining book about a group of unlikely female friends. It follows them from the time they meet at UC Santa Cruz all the way into adulthood. The dialogue is fantastic and the characters are engaging. This book is hard to put down.
pickLike The Girl on the Train, the book's main characters were wholly unlikable yet together, they told a weird, incongruent, messy story that I could not stop reading. Part mystery, part character study, part ugly facets of life with a bit of unrealism thrown in, this is a book I won't soon forget.
