“God has a plan for each of us.”

Sweet Violet is the last of the litter to find a home - she tries the bakery, plant nursery, and grocery; but at last she finds her home at a pleasant little bookshop with Alice the owner 🐱 🤍 📚

It‘s always interesting to find the same historical figure in two books. I‘m currently watching #TheGildedAge and #Outrageous and wanted some coordinating reading material. #MitfordSisters

kspenmoll I am watching Outrages too! Must start The Gilded Age! 2mo
Butterfinger I have been fascinated by the Mitfords since I read Nancy's Christmas Pudding and Pigeon Pie. I have been looking forward to the show. 2mo

#bookmail #gift Campari & soda is my choice for a before dinner drink.
My son, a generous & thoughtful man,got this for me because we are planning to watch the BritBox version based on this book, Outrageous.The series begins tonight.This is the summer of #toomanybookstoolittletime

RaeLovesToRead I wish I liked Campari and soda... I feel it would add some class to my evenings 🤣🤣 Maybe I could get some grenadine and make Shirley Temples instead 😄 3mo
ChaoticMissAdventures I find the Mitfords totally fascinating. 3mo
kspenmoll @RaeLovesToRead You definitely have to acquire a taste for it- bitter but I don‘t like sweet drinks! 3mo
rubyslippersreads I hope Amazon offers a Britbox discount during Prime Day. I really want to see this. 3mo

Mehso-so

Re read for my book club & enjoyed it more this time around apart from the political themes of the 30s spookily now being played out ☹️the Mitfords all I‘m sure were neuro divergent , unity especially, annoying , spoilt , privileged & definitely a way of life now long gone , aside from their strange political leanings not sure why everyone was obsessed with these horrible women . Nancy the most famous for the right reasons barely gets a look in ;

Bookbuyingaddict Full review on my goodreads , fable and storygraph accounts 😊 5mo
