dabbe Back in the 80s, I was home on a dateless Saturday night, watching this with my mom. My younger sister came home from her date and proceeded to watch with us. (She had never seen it before). As we're nearing the ending and the tears are starting to flow, she loudly proclaimed, “If they don't end up together, I'm going to be really pissed.“ 😂 Obviously a moment I've not forgotten. #heartbreakhotel 13h

Wuthering Heights | Bronte Emily
post image

@IndoorDame so… most of my copies of this book are in a double or triple or all inclusive Bronte leather. These are my stand alones. I did have more but a girl we mentored loved this book so I gave her some copies. For students that have to read this for high school I always give them the puffin one that is purple, for me myself the Barnes & Noble dark green purple with yellow lettering is my favourite.

⬇️

IndoorDame Beautiful 🤩 thank you! My Jane Eyre is actually the sister edition of that one with the woodcuts, but I happened to find it used and super cheap so I never got the other. I‘ll look these up but I‘ll definitely especially check out the B&N. I‘ve read this often enough that I want a readable copy. 2d

Life slowing down
Zorrie resting more and seeing friends who passed before

Interesting way to end the book?

♥️a link to crabapple blooming from Sarah @Sargar114 ♥️

https://www.littletonco.gov/Community/Visit-Littleton/Parks-and-Trails/Trails-in...

Librarybelle This whole book has been beautiful. We saw Zorrie‘s beginning, and I think it‘s a fitting way to end the book with her quiet final days. 3d
IndoorDame I thought the ending had a beautiful symmetry. I glanced back at the opening scene and was reminded that it opened with her in the daybed, needing to slow down, but the beginning is dreamless and alone and at the beginning she says she doesn‘t like dreaming. In the end her visions are filled with all the people she‘s learned to care about along the way. 3d
vlwelser This is a very slow and satisfying book. It's beautifully written. It's just a normal life with nothing truly overly dramatic. Or maybe she's the one that's not overly dramatic. 3d
See All 13 Comments
TheBookHippie @IndoorDame it was a beautiful circle. 3d
TheBookHippie @vlwelser I was pondering that myself. It‘s her I think. 3d
vlwelser It's her. When you think about it, there is actually a lot going on here. But she pulls you into her nbd attitude. And the author is sort of brilliant for presenting it this way. 3d
mcctrish @vlwelser it is all those things. It‘s comforting too, a beautiful life doesn‘t have to have drama 3d
mcctrish @Librarybelle I loved the circling back within the book, circle of lifing, confirming/re-emphasizing points again 3d
kspenmoll Wonderful life, full circle. @vlwelser a brilliant book,yes. A life of an every day woman. @IndoorDame thanks for reminding me of how the book opened, and how she ended up in the end. The aloneness in the beginning, the love she gathered from connecting with others, no longer alone , along her lifetime. 3d
Karisa @IndoorDame @TheBookHippie Yes! Beautiful in its symmetry, simple, and elegant. It works so well, a true testament to the writer‘s talent. 3d
DebinHawaii It is a quietly beautiful book about life and resilience. 💙 I‘m really glad we read it. 3d
Sargar114 Agree with everyone, such a beautiful book and definitely can see the symmetry. I‘m just astounded how our said so much with so little. 2d
mollyrotondo I love that it ended with a little spiritual touch. I feel like that was showing she was getting ready to die and meet those souls beyond. Really beautiful. 2d

Seeing the place her husband died…

Closure?

Librarybelle I think it‘s a form of closure for her. She needed this. I was a little surprised she went, but was glad for her that she did. 3d
IndoorDame I was impressed with her hopping a spontaneous international flight! Closure is so elusive, but maybe after all those years it was a form of renewal? 3d
vlwelser I loved this part. After her younger self never even made it to Chicago. 3d
See All 11 Comments
mcctrish This part just exemplified how Zorrie continues to grow and evolve and take risks. To quote Ted Lasso badly “she‘s curious, not judgemental “ she‘s always looking at things from other angles whereas Noah wears blinders 3d
kspenmoll This journey took me by surprise but it was such a wonderful experience to watch her expand her world, grow & change. Agree with @IndoorDame , it felt like a renewal, a yes to life 3d
Karisa @mcctrish Love Lasso! Going to miss having new episodes so much. 3d
Karisa @Librarybelle I was surprised too but loved this twist! 3d
DebinHawaii I was surprised & happy she went. Closure with Harold in a sense but also a chance to escape a bit & see more of the world. 3d
Sargar114 So shocking, but loved it. Agree with everyone it did seem like a bit of closure. 2d
mollyrotondo I was so happy she made this trip. She needed to explore the world a little bit outside that farm town, get some closure and peace, and she made a nice friend in that young woman from the plane. So lovely for Zorrie. 2d
TheBookHippie @mollyrotondo I loved the new friend! 2d

Sheriff asks Zorrie to watch over Noah
Which she does with so much food
The descriptions!!! Yum.

Noah
Rejects Zorrie
“My heart is the same as an upside down flame.”
He loves Opal, still.
He makes her a glass bird
….

Sigh

Librarybelle I think this shows the strength of Zorrie. We know she has feelings for Noah in the subtle phrasing of passages throughout the book, but she‘s willing to help Noah and keep him safe, however she can. 3d
IndoorDame Food as love is so universal. It works well here where no one speaks. 3d
TheBookHippie @IndoorDame my mantra FOOD IS LOVE. 3d
See All 13 Comments
vlwelser All that food! You must have been in your happy place with this. 3d
mcctrish I LOVE how this story circles back and confirms your feelings. We knew she loved him. And Noah can‘t stop loving Opal, or is he afraid to because hope of her getting better is how he‘s survived for so long he can‘t quit now or be the reason she relapses 3d
kspenmoll She was pouring so much love and hope into her cooking for Noah. It was so sad when Noah could not return her feelings. 3d
Karisa I kept thinking it was too bad she couldn‘t have returned Hank‘s feelings. Zorrie and Hank would have been so well suited. He would‘ve taken care of her as much as she does for others. Noah was not really there—stuck in the past and losing his parents seemed to send him over the edge. So sad all of it 3d
DebinHawaii I said in the previous question that I don‘t think Noah is capable of more of a relationship than he has with Opal so he would never have let Zorrie in. 3d
DebinHawaii And yes, food is love when & when you don‘t have the words. The food descriptions were excellent. I felt so sorry for Zorrie here. 3d
Sargar114 This too was very sad. She cares for Noah in a way he could never return and she knows that but kudos for trying. I agree @Karisa Hank seemed like a good fit. 2d
CoffeeNBooks @Karisa I agree that Zorrie and Hank probably would have been a good match. 2d
mollyrotondo Noah was rude to Zorrie I felt. She was bringing him all this food and eating with him and he would just sit there or he would get angry over things and yell over whatever. There is no way Zorrie would have been happy even if Noah accepted her advances. 2d
TheBookHippie @mollyrotondo Yes. Brooding and rude. She is a saint. 2d

A fire
Noah‘s trying to get to Opal..
Is he a little off or desperate?
Opals real story we get at last …
Interesting ?

Librarybelle I think Noah was desperate. I cannot imagine being cut off from a loved one, without the ability to see them, though knowing that they are alive. Poor Opal. 3d
IndoorDame Opal‘s actual story is desperately sad. I can see the weight of that getting to her partner eventually and just overwhelming Noah. 3d
vlwelser I think he's a little off but too calculated to be truly crazy. The fact that he never lets this go is a bit crazy all on its own. 3d
See All 19 Comments
mcctrish In the beginning I thought Noah increased Opal‘s crazy so that‘s why he wasn‘t allowed to see her but she was good and crazy before hand. I get that Noah ( and his family) weren‘t enough to keep her from being a danger to herself and others and that‘s why Virgil called for help. Did her family want to punish Noah for that ? Or was a pen pal all Opal could handle ( which is heartbreaking for Noah) 3d
kspenmoll @mcctrish Such a good assessment of Opal, Noah, etc. this whole scenario is heartbreaking. I was happy to learn more about them. 3d
mcctrish @kspenmoll Noah is such a contrast to Zorrie‘s life and such a subtle life lesson for the reader 3d
TheBookHippie @mcctrish such a good life lesson. 3d
TheBookHippie @vlwelser it‘s a very short time to give your entire life too. To not allow yourself joy. He could have kept in contact with her and had a life … 🤷🏻‍♀️ 3d
Karisa I was so surprised by the fire—not where I thought the story was going. Noah and Opal are both so sad but in different ways. He seems to be more choosing to be stuck and what he wants from Opal is unrealistic. I guess the same could be said for Zorrie though. Noah was not capable of giving what she needed either. Bleakest love triangle ever… 3d
TheBookHippie @Karisa it‘s definitely CHOICE. 3d
mcctrish @Karisa bang on about Noah 3d
DebinHawaii @Karisa “Bleakest love triangle ever…” so true! I feel like Noah doesn‘t have the capacity for a real relationship. Did/does anyone truly know him? He seems incapable of letting anyone in. Opal story is tragic & I feel for her the most in this. 3d
TheBookHippie @DebinHawaii Opal haunted me for sure. Noah was an EH for me. 3d
Sargar114 @Karisa well put! It‘s logical in a kinda crazy way considering Opal got sent away after the fire she caused; but it seems the town knows Noah too we‘ll and even the fact that he was that logical supports how sane he can be. While he clearly struggles from mental health issues, not in the same way Opal did. It‘s quite sad. 2d
CoffeeNBooks I was glad to finally know Opal's story- it definitely helps to make sense of why Noah can't bring her home. I think Noah burned down the barn out of desperation, not knowing what else to do to get a handle on his emotions. 2d
Deblovestoread @Karisa Nailed it. Noah closed himself off but choice. Opal didn‘t have one. 2d
mollyrotondo I felt like something was definitely off with Noah. I can understand why Opal‘s parents didn‘t want him seeing Opal. He‘s unstable himself. The whole thing is desperately sad for Opal but Noah needed help too. He just doesn‘t seem mentally all there. And I‘m glad Zorrie was rebuffed by him because she really didn‘t need his weight on her. He wanted to continue to carry that weight. 2d

Never Too Late: A Novel | Danielle Steel
post image
Mehso-so

I‘ve finished my 200 plus Danielle Steel novel, covered my strawberries and my mint because FROST WARNING 26F overnight and maybe ❄️ here on the lake…I‘ve had cocoa♥️
As for the book this is one my grandma and I would say “Hmmmm she needs a new cashmere nighty to write in she‘s not comfortable” 🤭👀

She doesn‘t use a ghost writer but she does use researchers as she is adamant about factual backgrounds. This read was unfinished/not fleshed out..

LiseWorks We got a big frost this morning too. -10 celcius here. 6d
Tamra I‘m ready for flowers without having to bring them in! 6d

To wish somebody a happy Passover in Yiddish, you would say Gut Yontiff — Pronounced “Guht YON-tiff,” this traditional Ashkenazi expression is a Yiddishized version of the greeting “Good Yom Tov” It can be used on Passover or any of the major holidays.

Liz_M I read this title as “The Classic Horror“ cookbook 😳 and wondered if it was either a) recipes with lots of strawberry jam, red food coloring etc. or b) full of Midwestern 1950s meat-and-potatoes-and-boiled-vegetables 😂 1w

TieDyeDude Sometimes I need a reminder of just how freakin' epic Stairway to Heaven is! I haven't been listening to much classic rock since I don't have radio in my car, just bluetooth. I need to force some changes in my Spotify algorithm 😅 1w
