I read 15 books in May. This is my best month in a long time.

I am still behind writing reviews. Hope to get caught in the next week or so.

My favorite book was Network Effect followed closely by The House in the Cerulean Sea and The Time Travel's Wife. My least favorite was Saint X.

May was a good reading month, especially considering that I‘m still working full time. #junestats #magicalMay @Eggs

#MagicalMay #Nostalgia

In Dr. Sleep, Dan Torrance struggles with horrifying memories and ghosts of his past, but we Constant Readers read about his struggles with a fond nostalgia for The Shining, relishing all of the many allusions to that murderous hotel.

My pick for the virtual foodie bookclub I co-host & I really enjoyed this look at how natural foods aka hippie foods became mainstream. Growing up in the 70s-80s, I could relate to a lot of it. It made me nostalgic for some of my classic cookbooks like The New Moosewood Cookbook from which I cooked this Brown Rice-Spinach Casserole with Sunflower Seeds—pretty hippie-ish food I think & tasty too. 😋Link to review/recipe👇🏻
