The Land of Mango Sunsets | Dorothea Benton Frank

#HaikuADay #HaikuHive

Catching up from yesterday, this haiku is inspired by the exuberantly golden sunset I saw driving home one evening this week. 🌅

Golden Respite

In a burst of gold
The sun takes its daily rest
Ready for nightfall

Charleston: A Novel | Margaret Bradham Thornton

I did find some time to stop by the Sweeter Than Fiction bookstore in Charleston. Really cute Taylor Swift themed bookstore. They had a great selection of romance novels. I didn‘t buy any books but bought my 10 year old a cute bag tote. They had lots of other bookish merchandise: totes, stickers, candles, puzzles. It was busy while I was in there. Definitely a fun little bookstore to visit if you‘re in the area.

Aims42 I‘m such a sucker for totes 😆 If I can‘t find a book at an indie, totes are my go-to purchase 3mo

Charleston: A Historic Walking Tour | Mary Preston Foster

My husband & I are going to Charleston, SC next month sans kids. We are staying on Meeting Street. We don‘t have a planned itinerary, besides going to the new African American Museum. It‘s been many years since we‘ve last been there. Any good bookstores to visit?

Ruthiella Isn‘t this kinda where you all live @BarkingMadRead and @TheSpineView ? 🤔 5mo

TheSpineView I'm about 4 hours from Charleston in the upstate. Very near the NC/GA border on Lake Keowee. @Ruthiella 5mo

BarkingMadRead I think it‘s called the Blue Bicycle? It‘s not huge but it‘s cute! 5mo

South of Broad | Pat Conroy

pick

Having lived in Charleston, I loved how South of Broad brought the city to life—from Market Street to Hurricane Hugo. The vivid landmarks made the story feel real. It‘s a powerful tale of deep friendships, personal tragedy, and the enduring spirit of the South. A moving, atmospheric read.

Looking for Me: A Novel | Beth Hoffman

We all have dreams...some are fulfilled, some are not. Teddi Overman knew she had a talent for refinishing antique furniture even though her mother told her there was no future in it. Her mother wanted her to be a secretary.

This is a must read so you can soak up the depth of, the warmth of, and the beauty of Ms. Hoffman‘s writing, and share in the benefit of her words of wisdom about being happy.
