pickOverall I enjoyed the book, but I did struggle some with the characters. I think the alternating past and present chapters was right for this story, but I found it sometimes interrupted the flow too. The difficult topics were handled well and there was depth and emotion throughout that really carried the plot.

Promise me, no matter how old and boring you get, or where you go, or who you‘re with, you‘ll never stop looking for this 📸
pickThis book had a lot going on! I felt it dragged at times, but overall was engaged in the story. It was very anxiety provoking at times bc of the type of relationship 1 of the narrators is in. It‘s a heavy read @ times & lighter @ others. As Evie tries 2 get her memory back more plot lines r introduced. I was satisfied w/ how the story came together. I really cared about Evie & Drew as characters. I‘d be intrigued to read the author‘s other work.
pickI was initially drawn to this book of course because from the cover and title it was obviously about books to some degree which is always a huge draw card for me but it was so much more than a cute bookstore read. I loved being along for Emma's self discovery journey and seeing how she grew and developed relationships with people and reconnections in her life. A delightful read that will leave you with a warm heart and a smile on your face.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
pickA book about bookish people and bookshops? Sign me up. I fell head over heels into this book and loved every minute of it! Though, I did feel that the ending was a bit rushed
pickAn enjoyable rom-com, getting to know oneself story. Emma escapes to Amherst for 6 weeks from the demands of her family and seeking happiness. She believes emulating Emily Dickinson will get her there. Her misadventures and meeting Davis help her to discover herself and what she wants out of life.
pickJust finished the audio! I love Lange‘s books! What a beautiful family drama that is so realistic. The writing is so good & the characters so rich you get sucked right in! It‘s my 1st time listening to one of her books & the narrators did such a great job! I look forward to what she comes up with next! Her books would make great mini series! I wish her books would get adapted!
I think I answered wrong - I've done a lot of the activities, but not necessarily for the New Year. This year's plans include:
1. Dinner at a new restaurant
2. Exchanging Christmas gifts with my parents (we're spending Christmas with my husband's family)
3. Movie night with my hubby
However, plate throwing & throwing a TV out the window both sound incredibly cathartic this year. 🤣🤣🤣
