It was so beautiful today that instead of doing our planned all day meal prep for the coming week, we went across the bay, walked, and had lunch out. I think what I like about Heather Webber‘s books is that they calm me and give me a sense that there are good people in the world. #audiowalk
It was a pretty warm walk today; the temperature was in the 70s. So far, nothing in this book has been surprising, but I don‘t really look for that in Webber‘s books. I look for warmth, and it‘s got that. #audiowalk
I like Heather Webber for a bit of light reading touched with a little magic. In this one, the town of Forget-Me-Not, AL, attracts people who are feeling lost so the residents can help them. I just started it, but I think I will like it. #audiowalk
pickSomething happens near the end of this book that I think is highly unbelievable; however, I still liked this story of second chances. I loved the characters and the parrots. Night #audiowalk today.
I‘ve got about 2 hours left in this book. Troy is a hateful one. It was quite chilly this morning. I even had to wear a jacket! #audiowalk
Because of this book, I am also simultaneously reading Spoon River Anthology, which I apparently never read in school. I‘m enjoying it too and am reminded of Lincoln in the Bardo. #audiowalk
It was 43° when I left the house this morning; it eventually got up to 74°. Still liking this book. #audiowalk
I think I‘m going to like this book; I feel invested in the characters. I picked up my granddaughter from school, and we went for a walk by the bay and out to dinner for sushi (her) and ramen (me). What a lovely day! #audiowalk
so-soThis collection of short stories from Fannie Flagg is a mixed bag — some are touching, some are surprising, some are just pedantic, and others are pointless. The ones featuring Cathy and Velma contrast life in the city to life in the country. How to Read a Book is my new #audiowalk listen.
pickI really enjoyed being back with Elizabeth, Joyce, Ron, and Ibrahim again. The story was interesting, although the murderer seemed kind of lame. The side plot with Ron‘s family was resolved in a satisfactory way. #audiowalk
