Home Cooking: A Writer in the Kitchen | Laurie Colwin

#TuneIntoNovember #AwakeMySoul #recommendsday 📚I read before bed to relax my mind & body but also to awaken my soul. For that, these 2 books are perfect. Home Cooking & its follow up More Home Cooking are filled with Laurie Colwin's brilliant & beautiful food writing in the form of warm, witty essays & some simple recipes too-like the lentil soup pictured. Colwin died of a heart attack at 48 in 1992 but her words are timeless & soul-satisfying.💜

The Thrift Book: Live Well and Spend Less | India Knight

#💸 money always leaving me when I buy books! This is a recent order from thrift books. Doing a white elephant and it seemed right to do a little stack of books! A couple may be for me though! 🤫😅 buying books really does #awakemysoul

The Ocean at the End of the Lane: A Novel | Neil Gaiman

These books have all helped #awakemysoul. I'm talking about my book soul, of course. I could have picked so many more, but these books all gave me feelings, thoughts, and knowledge. They made me want to finish them quickly, while at the same time, I never wanted them to end. They had me hooked and made me crave more more more!

Cinfhen This sounds good but I'm pretty sure my #BOTM people HATED IT - am I wrong??? @emilyhaldi @Reviewsbylola @L_auren @Booksandcooks 6y

Robothugs 🤷🏻‍♀️ It isn‘t for everyone, I know I‘ve seen a few people that didn‘t like it. I really enjoyed it, but it‘s also YA. I liked seeing the story from her mom‘s perspective as well. @Cinfhen 6y

emilyhaldi @Cinfhen I expected to hate this one but I loved it!!! One of the few YA's I have ever enjoyed. Pretty sure @Reviewsbylola liked it too 😄 6y

The Devil and Daniel Webster | Stephen Vincent Ben�t

History nerd that I am, I thought of this short story for #awakemysoul . Famous American orator Daniel Webster is called to the rescue after a farmer sells his soul to the Devil. A battle of words ensue...can Webster save this farmer? I feel I have to re-read this soon...it‘s been forever since I read it in school. #TuneIntoNovember

Cinfhen, Robothugs

Cinfhen Ahh, this is the foundation of the satire I just read about academia! Very interesting. Check out

Devil and Webster

Librarybelle @Cinfhen Stacked! 6y

Cinfhen I thought it was spot on brilliant!!! 6y

Mollyanna One of my favorites. I remember the first time I read it, I was actually cheering out load when Webster made a good point. @Cinfhen I am off to stack. Thanks. 6y

Librarybelle Thanks, @Cinfhen ! What a good recommendation! 6y

Librarybelle @Mollyanna I know! And what a good way to remember how much of a force Webster was as an orator. IRL, it must have been fascinating to hear him speak. 6y

Three Souls | Janie Chang

#TuneIntoNovember First, how gorgeous is this cover?!?! I‘ve posted this before, but it‘s such a beautiful story 💚 Song Leiyin is observing her own funeral and has no memory of her previous life. She can not enter the afterlife without first atoning for her past wrongdoings. Her three souls—yin, yang, and hun—help her begin to recover her memories so she can #AwakeMySoul and earn reincarnation. Set in 1920's China 🇨🇳

Robothugs

Cinfhen I think you would love this @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks 6y

TrishB Great pick 👍🏻 6y

janeycanuck Her new one is also excellent, though this is still my favourite of the two. I saw her speak a few weeks ago and while signing my book, she told me this one is based on her grandmother‘s life. So incredible. 6y

Cinfhen That is incredible @janeycanuck I hope my OverDrive has her new book
