Awww, thank you so much for the treats package, @Lauram ! Completely unnecessary because I thoroughly enjoyed participating in your #summer2021 giveaway, but totally appreciated all the same!

Lauram I‘m so sorry for the delay! I hope you enjoy your books. 3y

Amiable @Lauram I'm sure I will! Still baffled by the box being returned to you. The postal service seems to get more unreliable every day, unfortunately. 3y

The Emigrants | Gustaf Lannestock, Vilhelm Moberg

Taking a lunch break from working at home to sit on the back patio with my book and a glass of iced tea. And since I have the type of fair skin that is more suitable for living in the Scandinavian countries described in said book, my trusty can of sunscreen is also by my side.

The Heart's Invisible Furies | John Boyne

This book knocked my 🧦off! So, so, so good 💙 This will definitely be a contender for my favorite book read this year. I will be thinking about this one for awhile and look forwarding to reading more by the Author.
It's on the longer side so it took me a few weeks of bedtime kindle reading to finish and qualifies for the #readinbed prompt for @lauram #summer2021 giveaway.

Megabooks Such a great book! One of my favs from 2017! 3y

BookBelle84 My all time fave! 3y

JaneyWaneyB @GondorGirl 🥰 he says he doesn't like them I think he might be lying 🤣 3y

JaneyWaneyB @Ericalambbrown My dad is adorable 🥰 The Gnomes came from Asda supermarket. Every summer they launch different gnomes and I nab one. The last one was a gnome in a mankini laying on a flamingo lilo drinking a cocktail 🤣🤣 3y

Ericalambbrown @JaneyWaneyB That may be the most delightful thing I‘ve ever heard! I love it! 3y

JaneyWaneyB @Ericalambbrown I just checked the photos...he's not wearing a mankini I remember now Mum wouldn't let me buy that one 🤣 too risqué for her 🤣🤣 3y

Ericalambbrown @JaneyWaneyB that‘s hilarious! 3y

The Emigrants | Gustaf Lannestock, Vilhelm Moberg

Starting this four-book series (which the author intended to be read as one work) about the Swedes who fled religious persecution and poverty in Småland in the 1850s and emigrated to America‘s upper Midwest. My husband‘s ancestors made this exact journey. My own great-grandparents emigrated from Sweden to NYC. In 2019 we took a heritage trip to Sweden to see the places where our families came from.

Don‘t tell my yoga instructor (shh!), but on the days when I can‘t quiet my mind I read while holding long poses in yin to distract myself from feeling uncomfortable. 😬
