 Staying Open – 106
Happy Sunday. I’m not afraid of Sundays anymore. I no longer check my email on Sundays. I try not to get triggered and worry about what’s waiting for me during the week. I let it all be what it is. #open #olw #stayingopen 
Staying Open – 105
Quiet Saturdays are my favorite. Today was full of reading, learning bridge, practicing my.letters, taking a walk with kids and now I’m off to do some Korean. #open #olw #stayingopen  Staying Open – 104
Another day spent with my beautiful sister before she leaves town. We had coffee and burgers and sunshine and laughter. A lot of laughter. I love you Yonuka, miss you already. #open #olw #stayingopen

Yellow is my favorite color. Got to spend so much of today with my sister again and it was such a gift. We sat in the sun and ate ice cream. We walked. We talked. We laughed. And it was sunny the whole time. #open #olw #stayingopen 
Staying Open – 100
I have been thinking about being open lately. And how the last two months have been a lot and how I feel closed. It’s time to work on opening up again. #open #olw #stayingopen  Staying Open – 99
I bought more flowers today. I am still working on recovering. While some parts were faster than I’d hoped, others are going more slowly than I’d like. Teaching me the value of patience. #open #olw #stayingopen

I spent most of yesterday sleeping and working with my kiddos. Forgot to post :). #open #olw #stayingopen
I love love loved this beautiful story of a lost girl who becomes a lost woman due to a terrible personal tragedy and then travels far far away to unintentionally start life all over again. It definitely did give me vibes of 100 years of solitude. I am a huge fan of magical realism and character-driven stories and this has both with the added bonus of a lush and beautiful setting. Unforgettable characters, love, betrayal, kindness, grief and remorse. And so so much more in this unforgettable story. I cannot recommend it enough. with gratitude to edelweiss and Simon & Schuster for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.
While parts of this book were harder to read due to awkward pacing and phrasing, I really enjoyed reading this story about a woman whose husband doesn’t come home from an explosion in the building where he works. So she tries to figure out what happened and starts unraveling a giant web of secrets. Very interesting story and based on a real-life unfortunate event. It’s a quiet and yet gripping book. with gratitude to netgalley and Random House for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.
Absolutely fantastic feel-good book of the year. You’ll love these characters. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry and you won’t forget Tanner or Louise anytime soon!
I read this because it came up in different settings for me six or seven times over the course of a week so I decided that was a sign. IT was an interesting story even though I thought it dragged in parts a bit, I loved the slightly different take on the multi-verse and I really enjoyed the plotline. |
