Took a little walk after lunch around Marion, IA and stopped into the Marion Chocolate Shop (their caramels are so good 😋) and the HEA Book Boutique - a romance themed book store. First time I‘ve visited and it‘s very cute. I got myself the tagged book and a T-shirt that says “I closed my book to be here”
Well, this is intriguing.

pickFun and cute romance featuring a single dad, a woman with a disability, and the service dog(s) that bring them together. A little, I don‘t know, childish? In parts…. Not sure how to describe it. But overall a fun read. Shown here with my Stella.
pickThe number of times this book talked about chocolate chip muffins has made me hungry for them. Which is weird because I don't even like them. The story was really sweet, one that was easy to get lost in. I loved the disability representation. It was a really cute story.
pickThis updated rom-com includes a kid, two dogs, and disability representation. Read my full review here: https://debbybrauer.org/#the-match

pickBook 10 of 2024! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This read like a mix of The Perks of Being a Wallflower and Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe. Thank you Becca's "Blind Date" Books! I got this one from one of your packages!
pickAs a scientist I WANTED to love this book. The story itself is less about the infamous Patient H.M., instead, it is a narrative of those that influenced, as well as benefited from his history. The most interesting narrative threads are ones not explored enough in my opinion, and are left to the reader to discover in the last fifth of the novel. Well written, engrossing and fascinating: I do feel that the work has a slightly biased slant.
pick4⭐️ Such poignant & lyrical writing connecting three generations of men who knew one another only on a surface level. It‘s all about the nature of time, memory, consciousness, the perception of ourselves and others. It‘s actually quite difficult to describe. Worthy of a reread. It isn‘t 5 stars because I found some of the technical clock passages a bit too detailed.
Lots of lovely nature writing! 💚
