This was high on my TBR because it checks all those book-lover boxes: a woman leaves her unfulfilling life & job to start a bookshop, which grows into a place for others to also find purpose & healing. I‘m fascinated by how deeply I connected with the book, when the writing felt so…plain. The topics were so relevant to where I‘ve been in my life over the past few years: feeling a disconnect and discontent in my job, then leaving it to pursue ⤵️

What‘s not to enjoy when reading a cozy mystery set in a bookstore in Cambridge England? Molly & her mother have helped her Aunt Violet turn this previously failing bookshop into a thriving,profitable one.Molly in charge of social media & bookstore events,invites local author Iona York to read from her bestseller,The Strawberry Girls,which is inspired by her daughter. That daughter goes missing—⬇️
I‘m really enjoying this book, probably because it has a lot about books and coffee! And I just love the idea of having all day to think about a film (or a book) and discovering something special.
A murder she wrote / Angela Lansbury mention! Consider me charmed!
Last year, for my birthday, I got my 4th round of chemo 😔. Needless to say, my birthday was a bust. This year, to make up for it, my husband took me on a bookstore tour in the St. Paul/Minneapolis area. We hit 5 bookstores, including this gem: Story Line Books, housed in St. Paul's Union Depot. With a subtle train theme, the charm of the historic train station, and a wonderfully curated selection, this was a great stop! #supportindiebookstores
More of a ‘feel good‘ book than I usually go for but it was cute and I enjoyed it 😊
I finished this #audiobook while organizing my knitting stuff. Onto the next audio and knitting project!
“According to legend, coffee was discovered thanks to a herd of goats. When they ate a small round red fruit, they were very energetic and began to prance about, leading the goat herder to discover the coffee fruit and its properties.”
I looked up the story mentioned in this book because in Japan we have Kaldi coffee beans with a goat on the package. Turns out the goat herders name was Kaldi, so this is a popular name for coffee shops ☕️ 🐐
