Sometimes, Phoenix, I actually like you. Even when the power went out, it was cool enough tonight to be able to handle it.

TEArificbooks I have hot wind and dust in the air. Early May though it rained measurably for four days in a row and we had the wettest May ever for our area. It didn‘t rain again though and in total we got less than inch in the four days. 1w

Lovely Bones | Alice Sebold

I‘ve put off reading this book for years. This copy was given to me by someone who said she buys this book at secondhand stores whenever she sees it and hands it out to people to read. I couldn‘t say no upon hearing that. I‘m glad I finally read it as distressing as the murder at the beginning is. It‘s really a book about grief and families. A really good read.

Oh this was sweet.
I needed something light and whilst the subject matter seems full of sadness, it's actually really uplifting and has a sense of happiness and love.
A truly cute little story that offers a different perspective on death.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I‘ve read this book before, but it has been at least 15 years, so it was good to go into it with fresh eyes.
I think Lewis most shines in this one when he is describing the nuances of different types of love, pity, creating, etc.
It was especially interesting to read this book with my study group after reading a more modern view on Hell & the afterlife. Lots of good thoughts & good conversations.

For years now, we‘ve zoomed past McKay‘s on our way back home from our new home 7 hours away. But today, TODAY, I finally got to stop in for just a quick minute. It. Is. EVERYTHING!!! I want heaven to be just like this but with good coffee and dogs running everywhere. Utter perfection 🤗🤓

My next read is another re-read. I think I have a pretty good memory of this one, but we'll see! (Don't mind my phone charger in the way of the picture) #BookElevenOf2025

What Dreams May Come: A Novel | Richard Matheson

“There we will, I pray, remain and learn and grow until the time when we will rise together to the ultimate heights, changing in appearance but never in devotion, sharing the transcendent glory of our love through all eternity.”
