Nice Work (If You Can Get It) | Celia Imrie

I purchased A nice Cup of Tea based on title and cover. Then found out it was third in a series so I had to get the other two. Haven‘t read them yet, tho! All three #BeginsWithN

I enjoyed Celia Imre's first novel, Not Quite Nice, and this was an entertaining sequel. Didn't require any thought and that's about perfect right now.

rockpools Celia Imrie! Maybe that‘s what the world needs right now! 4y

charl08 Yup. This has been my approach too. Light hearted helps. 4y

squirrelbrain I agree - I love Celia‘s Nice-based books for a bit of fluffiness! 4y

With everything that's going on at the moment, I needed an easy read to take my mind off it.
This isn't the sort of book I normally go for but it did the trick and now I'm desperate to go back to Nice!
Not the most amazing book, but plenty of characters and story lines, and all set in the French Riveria which makes it better!

A very slow read that doesn‘t seem to flow. As a reader I wasn‘t captivated by the story or the setting, and there were too many characters involved.

saresmoore Homeschooling and “spare time” in the same sentence? You are amazing! I suppose “intentionally carved out and methodically orchestrated moments” is a lot of characters. 😆 6y

TheWordJar @saresmoore See, that was a little inside joke that only homeschoolers would catch! 😁 The projects are fewer and further between these days, but I like to keep in the game when I can. Unfortunately, the kids won‘t stick around forever, so I‘ll need something else to occupy my time then! (edited) 6y

Some "Mexican" accoutrements for our dinner.

I think I've used up all my sociability reserves for the foreseeable future ? -- I REALLY want to get back to my book. It's noisy and crowded and our server comes once every 45 minutes (he forgot to ever bring my ginger margarita ?)

LauraBeth Well since you have a lot of time while waiting for drinks - tell @WanderingBookaneer I miss her posts and she needs to post more often 😺 7y

Garabrandtreviews That stinks. A ginger margarita sounds amazing... hope you get it! 7y

Hollie Oooh a ginger margarita sounds like something I need to try! 7y

WanderingBookaneer @LauraBeth : I miss my posts too! I haven't read anything since Thanksgiving! 😔 7y

Jess_Read_This This ginger margarita you speak of sounds absolutely amazing! How was it (I'm hoping he finally brought it!)? 7y

ErinC My husband is leaving now to get me a burrito. This picture just made me even more hungry! 7y

Abby-J I definitely want to eat that. 7y

Bostonmomx2 Oh holy heck. That looks beyond amazing right now. Taquitos are my fave!! 7y

LindsayReads Ohhhhhh yes. 7y

bookishkai Oh yum. Maybe I'll take myself for Mexican for tomorrow, since I don't have to work. It's been a while since I've had a solo lunch and book date. 7y

Chachic Looks so good! Mexican food isn't that common here in Singapore. They don't even have Taco Bell here (in Manila there are branches). 7y

Celebrating a dear friend's 40th with a Cucumber Margarita #booksandbooze

Zelma That sounds incredibly tasty! 🍹 7y

BookishMarginalia @Zelma it's yummy! I'm trying the ginger margarita next! 7y

Posemn I am going through All The Posts this morning after missing a few Litsy days and I am glad to find that you had a cucumber margarita BEFORE the forgotten ginger margarita. I was worried you had NO margarita due to the server's forgetfulness. 7y

BookishMarginalia @Posemn Yes! The cucumber 'rita was yummy! The ginger one never materialized 🙁 7y
