I am a forty something, mod girl at heart, with the sense of humor of a fourteen year old boy, who likes to bake and wear aprons. While I am shopping for goceries (in my dress and kitten heels) I am thinking about taking you down. I will post all things I love or make my day.

When I’m really into a novel, I’m seeing the world differently during that time - not just for the hour or so in the day when I get to read. I’m actually walking around in a bit of a haze, spellbound by the book and looking at everything through a different prism.

What a fantastic book! I loved it so much from start to finish.  I wish I could visit Guernsey, it sounds beautiful.

I am currently reading House and Home. For anyone who has been as attached as I  have to the two houses I have owned, this is a great read.

I just finished reading this last night and again, it was another fabulous read by Susanna Kearsley. I never wanted Eva and Daniel’s story to end. I can’t stop thinking about it and am having trouble deciding what to pick up next. It’s hard when you finish such a great book to move right into another hoping you will be as captivated by your next choice. I am off to sort through my shelves….

I have just finished the book Every Secret Thing by Emma Cole and couldn’t put it down. I didn’t want it to end and just found she will be writing a sequel…needless to say, I can’t wait! Fabulous.
