pickThis was a really lovely cosy romance. I don‘t read a lot of romance but have been getting into it recently. I liked the setting and I liked seeing a career minded heroine who didn‘t have to change or become less ambitious to have character growth and fall in love. I now want to move to an Icelandic lodge where a gorgeous man will cook for me and help me catch escaped sheep.

Do you ever have those days where everything just feels very on top of you? Work is very packed with new things I‘m not very trained yet on how to do and I haven‘t had time for my own projects in ages between that and moving flats. I can‘t even remember the last time I exercised which isn‘t ideal :/ Managed to slip out to Starbucks for a few mins at lunchtime for a muffin and some reading.

I‘ve had a bit of a mini reading slump recently trying to read literary fiction on top of moving flats, getting everything sorted and a major busy period at work. I haven‘t given up on the books I was trying to read but I found I couldn‘t face susanna clarke in the middle of being stressed.
I found this series on kindle which seems to be 8 books about stressed British women going to other countries where hot men cook them local foods… hello 😘

This cozy romance is set in a lodge in Iceland. I won't lie, I struggled with the book quite a lot. I hope all my issues are based on the fact that I read a review copy and not the finished book.
The lodge and the Icelandic staff are great. The nature is described in such a lot of detail that I really would give my left arm for a cleaning job at the Northern Lights Lodge.
3.3 points -- not a “meh“ but also not “yeah“

#NewToMe vegan cream, for my spicy vegan carrot soup.
Might have added a few too many sunflower seeds.

Since I'm alone at home until Friday, I'll also do the #NetGalley #ARC #TBR challenge during the next three days. Will not be able to do it at the weekend.
