Today we‘ve had fog (a rare occurrence here), tendrils slowing making their way down from the snow capped mountainside. There‘s a delicious charge of mystery and magic in the air. ✨ Unfortunately, I‘m down with some sort of bug. 🤧 In between sneezing and sniffling, I‘m cozied up with hot tea, the comfiest slippers and finishing off the last half of my current read.

I truly enjoyed this book about family secrets, redemption, forgiveness, pie and a sprinkling of magic. This book reminds me a lot of Sarah Addison Allen‘s Garden Spells and Sugar Queen. The narrator was awesome as well.
pickWhat a wonderful story! It was beautifully written absolutely captivating from the start. This book tells the life story of a unique, special individual from the perspective of others who he encounters throughout his life. It is part fairytale, part love story, part adventure. This one is in my top 5 favorite books I‘ve read all year. 📸US Botanic Garden, Nov 2019 #recommendsday #nature #magical #wolf #botm #ruthemmielong #nonlinearnarrative
pickThe best middle-grade novel I've read in years! Rosa's mom is both a librarian & an “appeasement specialist,“ which is basically like a ghost hunter but instead of “hunting“ or banishing ghosts, she simply calms them down. The idea is that libraries are meant to be haunted because they're such storied places, with so many people passing through them & so many memories nestled between pages.

In the beginning of 2019, I decided to do a 52 week (52 prompts) reading challenge. This was one of the decisions I‘ve regretted the most in life. 😂 Despite my regret, I did learn several things about books outside of my comfort zone and my reading preferences.
