My boyfriend is home sick today so I made him some homemade chicken noodle soup with homemade dumplings. Going to enjoy a bowl and start #SwimmingLessons while he sleeps.

Halfway through week 5 of 6 for swim lessons. I'm going to miss the reading time. #swimminglessons #poolreads

Kept meaning to take a shot of this passage from Claire Fuller's #SwimmingLessons. I love the sentence "Writing does not exist unless there is someone to read it." We like to think we write for ourselves, but deep down, we all write to be read. #amreading

I tried to read #SwimmingLessons slowly - stopping to savour the beauty of the language, the intricacies of the plot. Until the narrative took off that is and then I couldn't help myself - I had to know the truth. The Truth, however is something the author will make you keep thinking about - long after you've put the book down.
It's a haunting book about marriage and families and books and hope. It's thrilling and breathtaking and I loved it.

Try reading the first sentence of #SwimmingLessons & not being hooked. It's a beautiful, thrilling, breathtaking book.
