Campaign Widows | 
so-soMeh. I can‘t remember why I was excited about this but it‘s been on the shelf since 2018. It was fine but it just feels Pollyanna-ish given the current state of American politics (especially that epilogue…)
Roll 19 for #Roll100
1/2 #Roll100 or #BookSpin books for #JoyousJanuary (and 2/6 overall)
pickThis was a fun read. It follows a group of friends whose significant others are all on the campaign trail for various candidates. Our "widows" are all peripherally involved in politics as well so this felt a little like a look behind the scenes. Mostly it's about friendship and there's a strong thread of girl power running through it as well. It was a little predictable- Cady's plot points were obvious from a mile away- but very entertaining.
One look at that endless spiral staircase and Cady knew this just wasn't going to work in heels.

I LOVE Spotify, so I‘m really loving this little trend of publishers making playlists to accompany books to create an extra bit of buzz.....
These are four I‘ve come across and enjoyed, and I‘ve attached a great article from ‘Bustle‘ that pairs Spotify playlists with books! 🎶💕🎵💕

A fun, clever, twisty-in-a-light-way novel about a presidential election seen from the POVs of the SOs surrounding key figures in the campaign. My only complaint: There is one female candidate in the election. Having her husband as a POV character would've been really great. But this was very enjoyable. I'll read more from this author.
Enjoying the breeze as I turn the pages & sip some homemade mint tea...

This was an airport bookstore impulse buy back in June. Trying to get into it!
pickWasn‘t sure when I started this. Seemed like too many characters to follow. And it sort of was too many. But I was still interested and mostly enjoyed it. Having lived in DC for 10 fun years and sitting in a remote Western AU town now, I enjoyed visiting the city through a book. A bit homesick now!
so-soAn average chick lit book. Full review on my blog: oddandbookish.wordpress.com
so-soI think I just had my hopes set too high for this book. The characters and the plot fell flat. There were a few romantic moments that were good. I think the reason I finished this was to see who won.
so-soJust finished up Campaign Widows by Aimee Agresti. Cute premise, but I felt the story was a bit predictable. It‘s fun a read in a rom-com West Wing vibe. For what it‘s worth, I definitely prefer the ARC cover over the final cover.
Waiting for my mom's flight to arrive. She's visiting for my daughter's Sweet 16 tomorrow. So, what to do at the airport while I wait? Visit the bookshop, of course.
Southern Happy Hour.
When your Litsy friend sends you the book you‘ve been anticipating along with a special surprise for your dog. ❤️❤️You have made our day @KarenUK 😘
I am completely in love with the fact that the #ARC I just finished has its own Spotify playlist!

pick“SATC meets The West Wing” said the blurb. I‘m not sure the dialogue is as whip-smart as Aaron Sorkin‘s but I definitely had a similarly huge amount of affection for all of the book‘s characters as I did with these 2 shows. This is more accurately “SATC in DC” with sassy, smart and endearing characters, true friendships and lots of fluff, set against a back drop of an all too familiar crazy election cycle. A proper feel good romantic comedy.👍💕
Finally starting this #ARC with the company of my two sleepy boys 🐶🐶💤 .... “Sex and the City meets The West Wing” ... bring it on! 👍
A bit of planning for the next quarter of #Booked2018 ... picking from books on my shelves already.... and I‘m super excited to get started....
Most looking forward to the tagged #ARC I got from work.... The blurb says “Sex in City meets The West Wing” - that sounds like totally my jam!
