pickBaby‘s first Hazelwood!
I get why this author is so popular - I enjoyed this novella/short story more than I was expecting to. It‘s definitely Tropey McTropesville but the writing itself does a lot of heavy lifting. A solid 3.5/5 stars from this Grinchy Anti-Hallmark girlie. 🤭
so-soCute short Christmas story. Gave me ‘You‘ve Got Mail‘ vibes.
pickA fast-paced, light-hearted, humourous love story of two childhood friends talking to each other after a very big misunderstanding.
Ali tends to make me think I can maybe like the romance genre....

🤣🤣🤣
pickWhat a lovely and nostalgic look back at a time (1930s) and a place (Deep South Alabama) in a young boy‘s life. (And that boy is a very lightly fictionalized version of Truman Capote.)
With that #FictionalTraveler 2025 is a wrap!

pickLet the holiday reading season commence! McLean is a Canadian National Treasure, and his story Dave Cooks the Turkey is a classic Vinyl Cafe listen. It also makes a delightful short read on a chilly December night.
If you've got the time, it really is worth listening to him tell the story, or can be found here: https://youtu.be/4VmMUM0HW6E?si=jpl-AEC1hSrbw2io
pickA sad but cosy bookish adventure.
I tend to dive blindly into any Christmas theme books this time of year (especially if they are free), and thus get a lot of misses.
But ever once in a while I stumbled onto something that just speaks to my heart, exactly like this little book did.
