A Dreadful Splendour: A Novel | B.R. Myers

I‘m staying only a few minutes away from The Ripped Bodice bookstore- and I loved it! It‘s such a cute bookstore- well curated - The people there were wonderful! Also- happened to go in during book discussion with two authors!

AllDebooks @Chrissyreadit I thought it might be, bit more subtle than the heaving bosom 🤣 2y

MemoirsForMe Yay for you! I love the folks at #TheRippedBodice!🙌🏻 I‘ve been an online customer so far. Can‘t wait to visit their store in person one of these days. 2y

Chrissyreadit @UwannaPublishme not only will I be likely to order on line I will probably ask for recommendations too. They were so good at curating for my mom and she is hard! 2y

The Wedding Crasher: A Novel | Mia Sosa

Thank you, thank you, dear friend @PurpleyPumpkin for this coolest birthday box of goodies! I gotta say, our favorite bookstore #TheRippedBodice knows what we like & puts together the “funnest” packages! Gotta love a wedding planner who wants to crash her own event & some quirky Kiwis in LOTR country! The mug was MADE for me since I never know what day it is! 🤪 Thx Kimberly for such a sweet gift & for adding more romantsy reads to my TBR! 😉❤️

PurpleyPumpkin So glad you like your special package! I have to say, the mug is what really won me over. I‘m thrilled that you like it! Hope you had a fabulous birthday. Wishing you all the very best for the year ahead my friend. 🥳💜📚 2y

PurpleyPumpkin And the books sound great! Looking forward to your reviews. 💭😉 2y

MemoirsForMe Thanks so much again, Kimberly! Oh that mug is soooo me, and it‘s beautifully made. It was packed in a cool box with a fun newsletter from our friends at #TheRippedBodice. @PurpleyPumpkin 2y

Holiday in the Sun | Mary-Kate Olsen, Ashley Olsen, Eliza Willard

How spoiled am I? Thanks SO much @PurpleyPumpkin for this wonderful Christmas surprise! I just love this “Holiday in the Sun” package filled with goodies—a pair of cool shades, gourmet jasmine soap, a ginormous (and softest ever!) beach blanket plus a Blind Date romance novel centered around a mermaid-themed inn. I‘m ready for a vacation now! 🕶🏖🧜🏻‍♀️ You are so appreciated, my friend!
#TheRippedBodice Rocks!

PurpleyPumpkin Yay, so glad you liked the package! Love the shades. 😎 Enjoy my friend!😘 3y

MemoirsForMe Oh Kimberly, those shades are sooooo cool! And you wouldn‘t believe the size and softness of that amazing beach towel. I will be the talk of the town when I hit the beach this summer. 😂 Thank you again! P.S. Check your email this week!💌 3y

PurpleyPumpkin Saw your email, thank you! Hope 2022 is starting off well for you. I‘ll respond soon… or maybe I‘ll actually write a letter!😂 3y

MemoirsForMe @PurpleyPumpkin So far, so good! I even signed up for more reading challenges.😳📚I‘m SO behind on my letters, so no worries! Wishing you a great start to a healthier, happier and more bookish New Year! 3y

Such great reads here, where do I begin? Plus a Blind Date book! I‘m still trying to guess that one.🤔Big hugs of gratitude to you. 🤗❤️

PurpleyPumpkin Yay, so glad you received this birthday care package! Looks like #TheRippedBodice made some good picks! I haven't come across either of these books before, so I'm looking forward to your reviews. Bea & Leah are great, aren't they? And so are you, Donna. Happy happy birthday!🎂💜 4y

MemoirsForMe @PurpleyPumpkin Thank you SO much! This was such a big surprise. I‘ve read many good reviews about both books, so I‘m anxious to crack them open. And the Blind Date is an extra treat! Oh yes, I love Bea and Leah. They just helped me put together a package for my Aunt. You‘ve put a big smile on this face again, my friend! More hugs coming your way. 🤗❤️🤗❤️ 4y

The Bromance Book Club | Lyssa Kay Adams

pick

In each of her books, author Lyssa Kay Adams features women who always get the last word, men who aren‘t afraid to cry and dogs. Lots of dogs. What‘s not to love? 😉 Highlights for me were Gran-Gran‘s wise adages, the intertwined Regency chapters and of course, the amusing premise-which is already sparking the emergence of real-life Bromance book clubs.
