2) Charles Dickens
3) Kristin Hannah, Kate Quinn, Kate Morton,…

#wondrouswednesday

1. My mom, hands down. I have questions. If my mom was unavailable, I would choose my grandma. Hell, I‘d like to have them both for a tea party.
2. I‘d go back to the early 80‘s, maybe 11-12 years old and try to see my parents and sister for who they were so we could be better together as we aged ❤️
3. I collect yarn, way too much 🧶
@Eggs #wondrouswednesday Thank you for these thoughtful questions, I love memory lane!

Thanks for the tag @Yuki_Onna

1. Depends on the movie and how excited I am to see it.

#wondrouswednesday

1. Heaven Preserve Us by Cricket McCrae
2. It too me over 2 years to read Les Miserables
3. Helping my mom move closer to me, so we can spend more time together as she ages. We spent several decades 100s of miles apart and now she‘s about 15 minutes away.

#WondrousWednesday

1. Continued exercise, walking, running, yoga - as much for my mental health as physical health. And a gratitude journal.
2. Candy…all kinds
3. Memoirs about suffering and strength, specifically holocaust survival.
@Eggs #wondrouswednesday ❤️

1. Study abroad! Who knows when the chance will present itself again? You‘re still waiting…
Join the Wilderness Club! And (of course): let him go.
2. Literally any way I can. I‘ve been too few places (see: no. 1). I love adventuring and have no transportation-related fears.
3. Anyone who will listen! 😅 There is no air of mystery about me. I just need to talk things through, okay?

#WondrousWednesday

Work! And sometimes it‘s just not manageable. A good cry!
Being put first ♥️

1. Ahmad, the Jinni, in the Golem and the Jinni, gosh he is a sheister but also likable.
2. Uncle Finn in tell the Wolves I‘m Home though his death makes room for unexpected connections.

Hope everyone‘s week is going great!!

#Scarathlon #TeamSlaughter #Wednesday #AdamsFam

1. Spent a few weeks in the summer sitting a infant/toddler. He was a chill baby and his mom was super trusting. I‘m not sure I‘d let teenagers ride around with my baby willy nilly.
2. My fist grade teacher. For many years I would go back to my old elementary school to visit her. I was just talking to my mother about her and wondering where she is now.
3. 27th. Friends, food, dancing, Jell-O shots, tripping up stairs and ⬇️
#WondeousWednesday

1. The chaotic mind of Holden Caulfield - oh the mental health issues
2. Every friggin year! The first Sunday in August my Grandmother‘s family for many generations. In the 90s my Grandfather‘s family started one as well. Both have ended as the families has passed away and the internet keeps us connected.
3. Graduated college, bought a house, good job with benefits, raising an amazing kid … all as a single mom.
#wonderouswednesday @Eggs

1. Only 5
2. My current - it‘s where I am raising my son and making family memories
3. Reading, spending time with friends and family, being by the beach
#wondrouswednesday @Eggs

1. As far as a being a vet: having specialized knowledge, always learning, and helping animals + their humans.
2. Pick a job that is easier for you to do physically. Chronic illness just gets worse, girl!
3. Caffeine! A coffee or a Coke.
4. Listen to an audiobook or read a physical book. Usually the latter.

1. The only one that comes to mind right now is the Ultimate Trio: Harry/Hermione/Ron ⚡️

2. SEVERAL!! I don't remember the last time I was reading just 1 book ? I pick them up according to my ever-changing moods!

3. Setting of 1 of my MANY currently reading books: England in "Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell" by Susanna Clarke. I like books set in England!

1. Probably only far enough that I could make it back in a day. Beatriz Williams, Elin Hildebrand, Lauren Willig, Fiona Davis.

2. Yes!!

3. Hawaii

@Eggs #wondrouswednesday

1. I would probably drive an hour or so. I‘m not usually one that gets real excited about meeting “famous” people because I get the opportunity with my job and 9 times out of 10 they are kinda disappointing 😂😂 BTW, it‘s Karin Slaughter and she‘s a Georgia gal like me so I think I would like her IRL.
2. Yep - “mental health day”
3. I live at the beach so maybe someplace cold 😍 @Eggs #wondrouswednesday

#wondrouswednesday @Eggs

1. I actually use a little bit of everything these days for convenience, but I prefer small paperbacks that are easy to travel with

2. I can't think of a truly "strange" place but I have read in the bathroom (probably most of us have ?)

3. My child and family. New friend. Rainy days. Naps.

Thanks for the tag @Coleen_Nieto and enjoy your Valentine‘s Day! ❤️
1. Usually we go to a local pizza restaurant for the past 12 years (my son was born 2 days later 12 years ago) but we are kind of avoiding indoor dining so will probably just get take out from there with my hubby and son.
2. I would have to say being mostly even keeled most of the time.
3. The 10,000 doors of January
#wonderouswednesday @Eggs @AmyK1 @wideeyedreader @SaturnDoo

1. Rich Girl - Hall & Oates (for the book White Ivy). Ha....my grandson is obsessed with Daryl Hall, so all he listens to is Hall and Oates. These songs are stuck in my head all day, every day.

2. My newest favorite is thanks to @dariazeoli ....a booklight that you put around your neck. Love it!

I tag anyone that wants to play!

@Eggs #WondrousWednesday

1. I still have a stable job and so do all my family. All my family still have their health. Lockdown with my children allowed me to get to know them once again. We have a beautiful home and garden. My divorce finalised.
2. My view from the bedroom window this morning 😊 #wonderouswednesday

1. I‘m from a small town in Georgia, so no. Karen Slaughter has mentioned my town in some of her books though. And Joe Finder has also mentioned my town. I live in St Petersburg now, so I need to find some set here.
2. I am hunting down a murderer in California
3. I read a lot of thrillers/suspense so I don‘t know that those characters make good family members..lol

#wondrouswednesday

1-Wildflowers in general, no all time fav

2-I always say my favorite word is "no" ? or a curse word. But a regular ol' word would probably be something like facetious.

3-Mystery boxes, escape rooms, boggle etc.
To watch: hockey

Thanks @RamsFan1963
1. Definitely cooking
2. So many! Lifeboat Clique came to mind first though.
3. Anna Kendrick hands down.

One day late, sorry for the delay, and thanks for the tag @Sharpeipup .
1. Always hard to say you‘ve read everything by an author, but I think I‘ve read all David Mitchell, all Richard Powers, all William Golding, and all Barbara Pam. I know I‘ve read all of Elizabeth George‘s mysteries. And I‘ve read most, but not all (because they‘re so prolific) of Joyce Carol Oates and Doris Lessing.
2. Can‘t think of any love triangles right now.

1 - Definitely my kids
2- Eat meat
3 - Blondie, when they were playing in CBGBs and I‘d be Debbie
4- putting plastic bags on clothes in a dry cleaners
#wondrouswednesday

1. Air
2. A Little Life....my Father-in-law was staying with us for 3-weeks. We are like oil and water. I needed a book to escape in and I sure hit the jackpot with this one.
3. The Vanishing Half. My next ebook after I finish Rodham.

Tagging you all.

@Eggs #WondrousWednesday

1. I love that crazy, psycho-stalker Joe from You, but I also love the evil Count Fosco from The Woman in White. And the heroine of my fave, GWTW, that manipulative belle, Scarlett O‘Hara!
2. Bending corners of pages, bending the book so that the covers are touching 😱, and really sticky stickers!! 😫
3. Outside of a classic (Dickens), I would go with The Library at Mount Char. I assume this means I would meet the author? 😁

3. I usually sort by read, not read
#wondrouswednesday @Eggs

1. Beartown by Fredrick Backman
2. Boring characters (not unlikable, uninteresting!) and unrealistic plot (a plot that doesn‘t stay true to whatever world the author has created).
3. Fredrick Backman. Beartown was the first book of his I have read.
#wondrouswednesday

1. The Glittering Hour by Iona Grey
2. I very, very rarely bail - in fact can‘t remember the last book I did - if I don‘t like a book I‘ll just skim to the end hoping it will get better.
