Just finished Cat Sebastian’s After Hours at Dooryard Books and it was SO the book I needed right now! Slow burn romance and the glimmer of hope we need in these terrible times.

a golden retriever is laying in a taupe papasan with an array of yellow flowers held in his teeth. his lips curl up to accommodate the stems, then flop down again. all that’s visible of his smile is a jagged half dozen lower teeth. his teal name tag is visible amid his chest fluff.

Well I think it’s time for a happy story, don’t you? I certainly do. And a happy story about CHEESE of all things? What could be better? Well as it happens, today is the 3 year anniversary of the day my husband asked me to marry him. “But Jonathan, what does that have to do with CHEESE?!” Well…

Abby Jimenez is one of my new favorites — Her Just For The Summer was my favorite book of the year!
Whoops, looks like you can’t be messaged?

Pile of books with the caption, “Just because I know I could get a lot more done if I didn’t read as much doesn’t mean I have any intention of trying it.”
Top favorite books of this year:
1. Just for the Summer by Abby Jimenez
2. If You Can’t Take the Heat: Tales of Food, Feminism and Fury by
Geraldine DeRuiter
3. (Tie) Horse by Geraldine Brooks and The Briar Club by Kate Quinn (Briar Club audiobook is excellent!)

“For Warren G. Harding, the summer of 1927 was not a good one, which was perhaps a little surprising since he had been dead for nearly four years by then.”
