I listened to this charming epistolary novel on audio, and it was the perfect medium for it. This short, heartfelt story unfolds through letters exchanged between two women in the 1960s—a young, adventurous Californian and a seasoned writer in the Pacific Northwest. The story is filled with warmth, endearing characters, and plenty of delicious food references (and even a recipe or two!). A comforting palate cleanser. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 ❤️📚

😭😭😭My husband & I were recently displaced from our home by a fire. No one was hurt & our things were fine, we did have to look for a new home. He knew how difficult an experience this has been, including having to seriously downsize my library. As a housewarming gift, he found something I I have been searching for- an Italian translation of my favorite book! Next Jan 1st, when I do my annual read it will be in Italian! 😭😭😭

Jas16 I am so sorry to hear about your home. 1d
HardcoverHearts @Jas16 Thank you so much. We are very fortunate to have been able to land on our feet. We will be fine and I‘m just so happy to be done with purging and packing. Now it‘s just unboxing and purging. 😅 1d

HardcoverHearts @Ruthiella thank you! And while I talk about Leo a lot, and we are incredibly close, we live in completely different parts of the world and are fantastic reading companions but he is not my husband. 😉 13h
HardcoverHearts @Chrissyreadit I thought so, too! 13h
Ruthiella @HardcoverHearts Oops! I misread your post ! 😅 11h
HardcoverHearts @Ruthiella not a problem at all, but I wanted to make sure credit was given where it was due! 😊 Especially since @Leoslittlebooklife had to get it from Rome and then send it to me. 11h

There are some heart wrenching letters in here. But the ones that got me were the ones that hit closest to home.

It seems like I caught the flu at the end of my holiday. I am home now, pretty sick. Not even being able to read. 🙈
This is the house Robert Burns was born in Alloway.
