Good morning, all! This quote has stayed with me since I first came across it because it gets at something true about the experience of reading, that you can't always predict which book is going to be the one that quietly rearranges something inside you, and that's a rather wonderful thing to sit with going into the weekend.
Have a Fabulous Friday. Take care and stay safe. 💙

Good morning, my lovelies! This feels like very straightforward and excellent advice for a Wednesday in early June, when the light is long and warm, and the natural world is doing absolutely everything it can to get your attention.
Have a Wonderful Wednesday. Take care and stay safe. 💙
Good morning, my lovelies! It really is true that the best books don't just pass through you but leave something behind. It could be a shifted perspective, a lingering feeling, or a character who stays with you long after the last page, and that's not a small thing at all.
Have a Terrific Tuesday. Take care and stay safe. 💙
Good morning, lovely people! June is here at last, and the shift is real and noticeable, that particular feeling of the year opening into something fuller and warmer. Monday feels like a genuinely good day to let yourself be carried along by it.
Have a wonderful one. Take care and stay safe. 💙
A pull quote from my upcoming memoir. Chapter 16. A simple request was sidestepped like so many others. Any small way to put distance between my daughter and me seemed part of her plan.

Good morning, all!
There's a real confidence and warmth to this one that feels just right for a Friday at the end of May! The weekend is close, the world outside is looking its very best, and the year still feels full of possibility.
Have a Fabulous Friday. Take care and stay safe. 💙
Good afternoon, wonderful people! Sorry I'm a little late today, but I did have a good reason; I promise!
Today's quote is a thought worth returning to every so often, because it's very easy to move quickly from one book to the next without giving any of them the time and space they deserve. Some stories really do need to be sat with for a while before they give up what they're actually about.
Have a Thoughtful Thursday. Take care and stay safe. 💙
When facts don't fit her belief, the attacks continue.
