This was so lovely! I think the blind-date with a book concept is so much fun. Happy you had a good reading day :)

What a cozy day and video🤩 I hope everyone is now fully recovered from the stomach bug. I love the concept of the blind date with a book, but I'd worry about not being excited about the book once I open the package and ending up never reading it 😅 I can be very picky sometimes

Thanks so much!! Totally get that haha, you just never know what you’ll end up with. Hopefully this one will be a success for me! 🤞

What a fun day! I think those were deckled edges on O Caledonia. I've never read that but it sounds promising. Amor Towles is always terrific.

Great vlog! I really enjoyed getting to see some of your local bookstores. I got Gideon the Ninth from a library blind date with a book and really loved it! I have another one that I haven't installed yet - something about cats and bed and breakfasts, so I'm sure it's a cozy mystery. I'm having that one for fall.

What a cute vlog! I hope your family gets better soon. I personally didn't think The Seven Year Slip was anything special. The magical elements just kind of caused a lot of plotholes and I couldn't get past that :')

Thanks friend!! Wow, a slightly unpopular opinion on The Seven Year Slip, haha love to hear that! I did enjoy it overall but it wasn’t a five star for me, closer to a four star. I see what you mean about the plotholes! I tried not to think about that too much but I know that can be difficult to overlook 😆

This was so cozy! 💜💜💜 The panning shots reminded me of the early seasons of SATC in the best way, the blurry drama of a busy, artsy, fabulous person 😂 Love it! And it makes me so so happy to hear you took a break for you. That ARC! And you know I paused to read all of the blind date options and you picked the one I hoped! I haven’t read it but I saw Simon @SavidgeReads talk about it in a vlog, I think to Edinburgh, cant remember if he liked it or not but I hope you do! The info sounded good! Also love the awkward glances haha 😅 extroverts make it look so easy! Its not fair haha 😂

Thanks friend!! I’m definitely a busy person and I like to think that I’m artsy and fabulous too 😂 So glad I picked the book you were hoping for, hopefully I’ll like it! And yeah, I still feel so awkward filming out in public, not sure if I’ll ever get over that… Introvert/homebody/socially awkward struggles for sure!! 😬😆

This was so much fun to watch. I’m glad your family is feeling better!!! I’ve always wanted to participate in blind-date-with-a-book but I get nervous that I’m not going to like her book that I get - that should be the fun of it though so the next time I run into one I’ll grab one!!!

Thanks so much friend!! Yeah there’s definitely always the chance of not loving it, but it could become your new favorite book! And it’s worth it to me just for the excitement of opening a mystery package, haha. Definitely try it out next time you see one! 😊
