pickCarla, a world traveler with no time for love, goes to Ireland for her best friend‘s wedding. Best man and the groom‘s brother, Eamon, is tasked with picking her up in Dublin and driving her to the wedding locale to help with wedding planning. Instead, they decide to take Eamon‘s Land Rover on adventures through the Irish countryside, and to have a vacation fling. It‘s easy-breezy until it isn‘t.

pickI‘m growing to love this series: gentle, seemingly soft-touch stories with gentle humour, but covering some tough subjects at the same time.
As one of the official languages of Botswana is English, I‘m claiming this for #English_Speaking #FictionalTraveler @julieclair
Also part of a series for #SeriesLove2025 @Andrew65 @TheSpineView

pickThis was a slow burn for me and I never really got into it, even though I loved the woman Edith has become and admire the girl she was when supporting her sister when she gave birth to a baby. Such an interesting plot and I loved the Irish setting. It‘s really a good book. And yet. It‘s me. A light pick.

I'll be in England in the 1920s at Brideshead Revisited with @BarkingMadRead and the #hashtagbrigade. So far, I'm loving it. Such sumptuous writing! 🧡💜💛

My first finished book of September, I finished this one for #FictionalTraveler #September #EnglishSpeaking & September #Roll100 #77 #AnyBOTM Overall, I enjoyed this one, although it drug in parts. The unique premise of an unmarried British woman who comes home after her friend‘s hen party to find she‘s married & her attic keeps “replacing” husbands with no end in site. Lauren made some choices I judged & thought over-the-top but ⬇️
September #FictionalTraveler pick.
Also done #FictionalTraveler already! September is English-Speaking and I read a greatly-updated graphic re-imagining of the Huckleberry Finn story. It's excellent. @julieclair

Finished in August & read this #BOTM novel for #FictionalTraveler August #Hot (it‘s set in a desert compound in the summer).
I am a sucker for reality television drama even though I rarely watch it these days so I quite enjoyed this dystopian version. For a debut novel, it was well done & I liked the elements of reality tv & looking at what is truth versus fiction. It had both dark humor & a few mild thrills & twists thrown in.
