Friday brunch at home with my current read ;)

Today, I just want to relax and read... Look up my feed on Litsy with your great reviews of books you liked/disliked, and read some of my magazines.

Made a big raspberry tart yesterday, got one slice yesterday night coming back from a late class as dinner, and now for brunch ;) My husband got one big slice for his breakfast. I love making these... They don't look perfect, but the taste is there.

Slept in late, was tired after yesterday‘s hike & a trip to Wegmans- opening day in Norwalk, CT but about an hour + ride so it became a day trip. of course we came home with many delights!
Having coffee on the porch before it hits the 90s in late afternoon. A soft breeze, how refreshing! - hoping to see my hummingbird friend- usually it‘s early morning when I spot him. #coffeeandbooks #porchlife

TheBookHippie Oooo a breeze!!! Enjoy!!! 1d

Don't know how to describe this except as a masterpiece, one of the best books I've ever read. It's got the most beautiful, insightful, poetic writing and deep feeling for its characters and their crises (material, spiritual, existential, relational). Reading this only once feels like just scratching the surface of its meaning and beauty. Also: queer love!!

"Love was a room that appeared when you stepped into it. Cyrus...stepped."

ChaoticMissAdventures I agree! I loved this so much even through the darkness. He is an amazing writer. 2d
Suet624 I loved this one too and agree that it requires a second read at least. 2d
Tamra I enjoyed it too! However, the group I read it with wasn‘t thrilled. 2d

Christine I have put this one off for so long, you are making me want to remedy that! 2d
CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian @Suet624 especially knowing the reveal!! 2d
CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian @ChaoticMissAdventures yeah it had some dark themes but didn't make me feel dark, you know? 2d
CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian @Tamra to each their own i guess! 2d
CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian @Christine hope you love it too! 2d
Kitta Oooh maybe I‘ll add to my TBR, I‘ve been unsure about it for a while. 1d

My dearest @mcctrish, what a lovely gift. I feel honored to be worthy enough to cherish this Canadian ornament. I have even looked into moving there and am beyond bummed that I probably can't. I don't blame your country one bit for not wanting us USA nutcrackers up there! Here's to the July birthday 🦀 babes! Thank you, m'dear. ♥️🇨🇦🤍

mcctrish So glad it finally got there 2d
LiseWorks You can come and visit anytime. 2d
dabbe @mcctrish @Liseworks ... I'll have to find a way to make it all the way across the country! 😍 2d
