Why I read it: A book club selection

Summary: Lovejoy’s whole life revolves around the bookstore where she works. She doesn’t have family except for Archie, the shop’s eccentric owner, and prefers books to people. Poet Nathan brings a change to her life in more ways than one—besides bringing the possibility of romance, Lovejoy’s past starts to come back to haunt her. Will she finally be able to make peace with it in order to move forward or will it be too much for her to face, forcing her further into isolation?

Another Happy New Year

It’s 2019! Another has come and gone. And I’m woefully behind. I probably should’ve spent December looking back on 2018 and wrapping it up.

But I didn’t. So now we’re going to spend some time now in January doing that, starting this Friday.

Then we’ll really welcome 2019.
