Charlie works as a dishwasher in the noodle restaurant where her dad works but wants more, so she applies for a receptionist job at a dance studio. She never expects where this will end up taking her. This novel has obvious plot points and was too romance focused for my personal taste, but I enjoyed it. It shows the pull between current and traditional expectations well.

@wanderinglynn It‘s arrived! Late in posting it‘s been bit of a circus here.

In 2010/11 I mentored a young mom who was terrified of peacocks like a phobia even pictures of them. She was light and full of laughter and had a fun sense of humor. She knew I loved peacocks and would gift me things but say don‘t open it I don‘t want to freak out. I love her as my child as I‘d mentored her her entire childhood. She died in childbirth January 19, 2011⬇️

TheBookHippie When she died we found a peacock wallet wrapped up 🦚. When Lynn said she had an extra one of these she kindly mailed it on having no idea how much this meant at first. We plan to puzzle this with her friends one of which was my daughter. Thank you Lynn. This means so much. 1mo
wanderinglynn I‘m so glad I could add a little joy. Enjoy! It really is a beautiful puzzle. 💚🧩🦚💚 1mo
LapReader I have issues with them too from my Nan. Her little sister was wearing green when she died and there were peacock feathers in the room. I can‘t have them in my house eg. a girlfriend gave me a tea cup with a peacock on it. I gave it away to the op shop. 1mo

TheBookHippie @LapReader 😵‍💫 I understand phobias. It can be so frightening! 1mo

#BookedinTime #February #HailtheBail

I tried print and audio. A whole lot of telling going on and I‘m bored. I think I‘d be better off reading Mathilda Kschessinska‘s own Dancing in Petersburg.

March hasn‘t been a huge reading month for me, but I did read both of this month‘s spins, finish one of my super intimidating chunksters, and am on track to finish the other at the beginning of April. I can‘t wait to be done with it! And I‘m looking forward to some new spins and a month of brighter, fluffier, more springtime appropriate reading! #bookspin #doublespin @TheAromaofBooks
