pickI really enjoyed this. I loved the characters, which initially seemed basic, but slowly became more interesting and complex. The main character‘s journey seemed authentic and I see why this has been so popular. Definitely recommend and this would be a great book club book. 5⭐️
bailedGuys! I got 39% of the way through and this book was so depressing I couldn‘t do it. Also, I didn‘t know where the plot was going so that made me not want to finish it.
pickPrelude to my Top 24 (or 25) post, I actually managed to finish a photo bracket and continue to agree with my choices. BUT! The real question is… will any of my current reads knock off Make Envy Disco 🪩?! I doubt it.
BIG THANK YOU to @Catsandbooks for the bracket template.
Thank you Meg for my Christmas gifts! I openen them this evening because I‘ll be traveling from tomorrow. And I am super excited about both! The Wedding List because you raved about it (along with many others) and it‘s a #ToB book and Nobody Somebody Anybody I‘ve wanted to read that for so long! Your choices are fantastic, as always. I feel happy and grateful! 💝
pickI can see why this was a #GoodreadsChoiceWinner for the year! I couldn‘t stop listening to this one! The performance is great & all of these wedding people really came to life! When Phoebe leaves her suddenly empty MO home, she plans a nice last room service meal & that‘s it forever. But as the only non-invitee at the RI hotel for Gary & Lila‘s wedding, the bride won‘t let her lavish 6 day celebration be spoiled. The quick intimacy draws you in!
pickA surprisingly sweet dramedy about a depressed woman who finds a new outlook on life after accidentally getting entangled in a wedding.

pickThis was amazing! Hard to put down, great characters that were unique, compelling, and fully formed. The writing was tight, well paced, and smart. So good on #audio ! Highly recommend! #BookspinBingo @TheAromaofBooks
pickA soft pick for these two loosely-connected stories that take place on Nantucket a year apart. These were super Hallmarky and perfectly pleasant. I enjoyed the first more than the second, because the mom in the second story drove me kind of crazy. But the greatest tragedy is that I was 160 pages in and all of the sudden the book skipped to page 216!! Right at the big finale of chaos (you know, where the kid ran away with the puppy and supper is ⬇
pickI started this while feeling a bit down and had to take a couple breaks before it really hooked me. It didn‘t start out as the light hearted read the cover suggests. A struggling woman checks into a hotel and becomes entangled in the wedding taking place on site. The interactions push her outside of her herself and her sadness but she also changes those she meets. Balancing both depth and humor this book was surprisingly delightful.
