A good realistic book about family problems. Personally, I think its kind of mid and not really my taste. It ends on a cliffhanger which wasn't that pleasant, if the book is going to be mid why add a cliffhanger? It just makes it worse. 💙

Comforts - this lovely reread and knitting, or even just thoughts of knitting are an antidote to the anxieties of the world.

Had an impromptu trip for fun to the cities and bookshops are always on the agenda. 😁

The tagged book was such a quietly lovely read several years ago on Kindle, that I had to get a paper copy for a reread. Who knew the life of a snail was so fascinating? Plus, Elisabeth is not just writing about snails in the abstract, but about the actual snail she unexpectedly shared her life with while she was bedridden for months.

LeahBergen That sounds lovely! 🐌 2mo
Tamra @LeahBergen it‘s really an antidote to the current chaos. 😊 2mo

Five feet apart is a good book if you like things like Romeo and juliet, The fault in our starts, and Me before you. A book about falling and love and feeling connected but having so much love that you have to let it go. The theme is romance and letting go which is portraits through Stella falling inlove with Will but Will making the deduction to leave to protect her
