The Five-Star Weekend | Elin Hilderbrand

I had three leftover geraniums from a plant haul at Costco and I had an inspiration just before I fell asleep. Finished this audio book up puttering around - some laundry, some planting, some dishes. Now I‘m at loose ends 😆 EH is always a lovely read. This one is about the importance of friendships at different stages of our lives and how different people can fill that role

This #JaneMount “Diverse Spines” 500 piece puzzle was so fun! A bonus, at the end, I went through to see how many I‘ve read: 25

How many have you read? Might need to screen grab and zoom in. 🔍

Wrapped up the tagged book. My first Hilderbrand. Enjoyed very much! #audiopuzzing

emz711 Love her art. I have a drawing of hers on my wall 1w
CoveredInRust Love this puzzle! I've read 17 ? I saw Jason Reynolds speak at an Ohio Library Council expo and he was phenomenal. He related interpersonal relationships and understanding to resonant frequency used in buildings. As architects and construction crews have to avoid the resonant frequency of a building or bridge so it doesn't all come down, we can try to find the "resonant frequency" or things we share, to break through to each other. 1w
BarbaraJean I have this same puzzle! I've read 23 of these. 1w

Suet624 This looks like fun! And I saw Jason Reynolds‘s speak to a bunch of college kids who sadly didn‘t seem to be very interested but I thought he was terrific. 1w
CoveredInRust @Suet624 That's such a shame! Everyone at our event was CAPTIVATED. But it was a room full of librarians so 🤷‍♀️😊 1w

When I should have been exercising or making dinner, I was making a giant batch of Nuts n Bolts becasue a neighbour gifted me with some bugles ( we can‘t buy them in 🇨🇦 anymore 😭) and listening to my audio book #summercanstsrtanydaynow

Suet624 My mother used to make Nuts and Bolts every Christmas. What a flashback! 2w
TheKidUpstairs Oh my gosh, I haven't had good ol' fashioned homemade Nuts n Bolts in FOREVER! So good! 2w
mcctrish @Suet624 they are a total Christmas treat but the bugles made me do it in June ( plus I‘m gifting a a tray of them to my brother in law for his birthday ) 2w

This poor Old Man has had a rough day healthwise, and while he doesn't feel up to being cuddled outright, he's happy to have me near. 🥹 Closing out the night with this wonderful (so far) read and a little extra love for my #ColeCat. #CatsOfLitsy #CurrentlyReading

Elin Hilderbrand‘s books really go down easy. I have not read all her books in order but every time, I start out thinking all these people are awful, but she finds a way to make you care about them. (I really wanted to shake the daughter character throughout, though.) I enjoyed this as a fun start to my #AuldLangSpine reading for January.

monalyisha That cover/color scheme is so not what I just saw when I looked out my window for the first time this morning! Gosh, do I miss summer! 😭 5mo
MallenNC @monalyisha It‘s definitely not summer here either! 5mo
Jerdencon @MallenNC I had never read her before and enjoyed it more than I thought I would. Glad you like it! And I did read it in the summer bc it‘s def not summer here either. 😂 5mo
MallenNC @Jerdencon I‘m in North Carolina and we‘re finally getting some winter temps here. It was kind of nice to “be” in the summer with this book. I have only read a few of her books. I can tell why she‘s so popular. 5mo

Before this I was unaware of divorce ranches in Reno where women could live for six months in order to file for a divorce. The plot was not predictable, but it didn't have much of a climax and sometimes felt repetitive.

plemmdog One of the best 1930s movies ever, George Cukor‘s “The Women”, features a storyline at a Nevada divorce ranch. The entire cast is women. It‘s a hoot, if you‘ve never seen the movie! 6mo
ChaoticMissAdventures I have been thinking about this time period a lot lately now that some politicians are talking about banning no fault divorce. Sorry this didn't work for you but at least you are learning about an interesting history? 6mo
