Hey, everyone! It’s Wednesday! We’re kicking things off with a serious story, as an FYI. Definitely heed Sarah’s warning. I honestly can’t remember what has happened since last time. My home office is getting set up and I’m loving it. I have a pink candy jar with a ghost wearing a cowboy hat on top. I am going full on dopamine decor and I couldn’t be happier. I also bought organizers for my craft supplies … Continue reading Links: Cats, Rachel Reid, & More
If I Loved You Less by Aamna Qureshi is 99c! This is a contemporary romance inspired by Jane Austen’s Emma. I thought we had talked about this one because the cover was familiar to me, but no dice.
It’s time for another edition of Stuff We Like! I’m searching for fleece-lined apparel, I’m fixing the couch, and Shana’s buying all the adorable things – including headband bluetooth headphones! ETA: You know, it’s a pretty good idea to make sure the post you’re linking to has been scheduled. *headdesk* All fixed! At least you all know I’m definitely not AI.

I am currently reading AJ Sherwood’s The Tribulations of Ross Young, Supernat PA. I love competent, organized characters who are valued for their competence and organization.

RECOMMENDED: Blood on the Tide by Katee Robert is $1.99! This is book two in the Crimson Sails series and Lara gave it a B+:
When I review books, I stop intermittently to jot down notes. With Katee Robert books, I get so immersed so quickly that I forget to take notes. The story sucks me in comprehensively and this book is no exception to that rule. If you’re interested in this series, definitely start with book one as the two are closely linked. I can heartily recommend both.
