Cozy fantasy is the genre I didn‘t know I needed and I‘m delighted that I found it! This one is so cute - a librarian and a talking plant open a jam shop and dabble in magical spells…. It‘s so fun. Photo is a puzzle I got for Christmas - so beautiful!

pickI finished Fourth Wing today.
Dragon riding school. Confusing politics. Interesting characters. A good amount of spice. And the last page?
WOW. I‘m impressed!

Post-holiday vibes. I was the first one up this morning - such a luxury, especially when I don‘t have to work today! I‘m trying to finish a few more books before the year is done.

I‘m in Oceanside, CA on a girls trip with a friend from college. We are staying in the little pink houses by the beach and we never want to leave!

I started this book last week, but today it hooked me so now I can‘t do anything except read. I rearranged my living room and created this reading corner. Love it already!

8:45 on a Friday night. I‘m in my pj‘s and in bed ready to read for 11 minutes or so, until I fall asleep with the book on my face. I‘ve already had an after-dinner nap. This is what teaching junior high looks like. (Good book! I‘m loving it!)

I got some new options in my kindle. I love using the Libby App to check out digital books from my local libraries!
(Finished James already - loved it)

Coffee and reading by the pool. I never want July to end.

One more week left of school and then I‘m free for the summer! But the coffee and reading mornings outside have begun! Adding a little journaling and watching the pool robot to start my day.

Another delightful book from Amor Towles. His writing is close to perfection. View from our stateroom balcony on a cruise ship.

At the start of a journey. Bought this book at LAX with my coffee before my flight. Excited to spend a week on a trip with my husband!

Library visit to get some books for spring break next week. We are all struggling with such a late spring break - everyone is ready! Also, I‘m so excited to find the latest Flavia de Luce book available! 🩷

pickI finally finished this book of short stories in a patch of morning sunshine. I liked the last stories the best. “Metempsychosis” - a story about a woman who thinks she is a snail, was quite disturbing. “My Evil Mother” made me smile.

Yes, Ms. Atwood. We are.

I went to the library and this is my assortment for the week. I‘m going to finally finish Between Two Kingdoms (about half way), make a sweary cross stitch for my friend, and try a new recipe from Ina. Should keep me out of trouble!

These audiobooks are honestly such a comfort to me. I listened to this series during a personal rough period (health problems - my husband). Listening to them again reminds me I am a survivor.
I‘m having a lazy, post-Christmas day. Reading (and napping) with my dog close by. Good book so far!

I‘m having a personal crisis, so this morning I decided it‘s time for round 2. I felt better after only five minutes of Kinsey. Audiobooks are great therapy. It‘s a reminder of my progress and growth too. Thank you so much, Sue Grafton and Mary Peiffer.

Afternoon reading time under the umbrella. It‘s a beautiful day and my feet are warming in a ray of sunshine. I live for these days!

pickLatest reads. Really liked the cozy mystery genre and A Quiet Life was delightful. Assistant to the Villian was fun but SUCH a tease.
Starting this book in a hotel. Weekend getaway for a family birthday party!

Dinner & reading. Sloppy Joe made with lentils and topped with pickled red onion & cabbage. Ginger peach sparkling water was a winner.

pickWow! This was a dense read. It took me a while to get used to the main character‘s voice. The author‘s writing style is like a heavily annotated autobiography. But towards the end, things started to click and I went back to put the pieces together. It was all there and I missed most of it.
Brilliant!

This book is wordy - it took me awhile to get accustomed to the author‘s pace - but I‘m into it now!

I‘ve started dating my posts because I like to go back and look at my past posts, a digital reading scrapbook. Anyone else like the dates?
