I stalled out on reading this for a bit because of life stuff, and also it didn't feel like the right mood for me at the time. Enjoying it a lot now; it's interesting how intrusive the narrator is and yet how easily you can forget it for a moment and narrow the focus to the character interactions.
I should have just 20 mins ish left to read (Kobo and Bookly's estimates vary widely)... but not sure if I'll have the time until late this evening. 😱
pickAnna is divorced and has absolutely no desire to date until she suddenly needs to write a dating column in order to keep her job. When a basic foray back into dating is not fresh enough for the new big boss she agrees to let her kids pick her next few dates and to have her column go head to head with her work nemesis‘s dating column. I had a lot of fun with this story as Anna starts to trust herself and the world again and loved the Bath setting.
pickLow pick! I liked the Fairies and Gods, but it dragged.
Saphic Regency Romance
Getting another chapter in before I am off to read speaking exam rubrics all day.

pickThis was my #jolabokaflod gift from @LeslieO and I finally got to finish it. I started it on Christmas Eve but didn‘t get far, but when I restarted it in February I finished quickly. I ended up loving Anna and Will plus the premise of the book made it fun getting where the author was leading. I‘ve enjoyed all the Sophie Cousens books I‘ve read so far. She‘s become a real favorite.
Thank you, Leah, for this delightful package. I am particularly pleased with Bath Tangle because I have a couple of other Heyer‘s in this format. And, yes, the Kloester is an essential resource for a Heyer fan 😊. I love the teacup card too. It is so kind of you to think of me 😘. And I did follow your instruction 😆
Very early morning start- been home due to a bout of bronchitis.In between rest & sleep, I am reading, reading. What do others do when sick at home if not a reader? School is closed this coming Monday & Tuesday for Presidents‘ day,which is a healing bonus. Enjoying this non demanding cozy read. #readyourkindle
I didn‘t expect to get back to #Bath so quickly, but it‘s such a beautiful city with great #bookstores. Persephone prints works by female authors in the 18 & 19th Century who would otherwise be forgotten. I‘ve read the first book by Muir today and really enjoyed all the insights on Jane Austen and the Regency Era (hello Bridgerton!).
I went on a day trip yesterday to Stonehenge. After, our tour visited beautiful #Bath and I finally saw the famous Roman Baths. I‘ve been to Bath last summer but it‘s such a wonderful city. This is a sign in front of the amazing Topping & Company #bookstore close the to the Abbey. Sounds awesome!
