  1. "Bookshops are places of magical discoveries and the rediscovery of past pleasures. My bookshop, in fact any bookshop, makes me very happy." - Liane Moriarty
  2. Thank you for the thread, Robin! I read On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft - 4 Stars and The Dutch House - 3 Stars
  3. Kindle book on sale today. Not sure if I should get it or not. I've heard great things about it.
  4. Thank you for the thread, Robin. I read Shaken, Not Stirred - 2 Stars and Tender at the Bone: Growing Up at the Table - 4 Stars
  5. Happy Birthday and happy all the celebrations this week, Robin!
  6. Happy Thanksgiving Robin, and Happy Thanksgiving to all! I read The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry - 2 Stars and Between Two Worlds: Lessons from the Other Side - 4 Stars
  7. I follow many. This doesn't mean that I do them all. I'm selective, have limited time, and only do what interests me. Jessica Smith is on YouTube. I also recently started her streaming, since she had a great deal. I stream two instructors - hers and Ellen Barrett, both of whom I love, and who do a variety of workouts. Ellen's streaming is reasonably priced, and she adds a new workout every month. I believe that both offer a free trial, which is a great option if you're undecided. With Jessica, you can get many free workouts on YouTube, but there aren't as many free new releases as before. You can always view her past videos and see what interests you. Here are those that I subscribe to on YouTube. Jessica Valant Pilates - she's a physical therapist Lift with Cee - love her! She barely talks. I love them when they don't talk excessively. Yoga with Kassandra - adore her! Bailey Brown - my daughter told me about her. She's young and her videos are pretty. I've only done a few of her older ones so far. Burpee Girl Short Workouts - Burpee Girl is great, since she doesn't talk. Just music. Mostly cardio, but also weights. New videos every day. Burpee Girl - she has two channels Olivia Lawson - absolutely love her. Again, no talking. You do need to include your own warm up and cool down, however.
  8. I believe that this was my third Kristin Hannah book also. I hated it, and am most likely done with her. Too many books and too little time.
  9. Thank you for the thread, Robin. I perked up at the Nora Ephron link. I read I Feel Bad About My Neck, And Other Thoughts on Being a Woman and I Remember Nothing: and Other Reflections - both several years ago. It's time to look into her other books, or even to re-read this one. A few years ago, we watched"Everything is Copy." I read The Gift: 12 Lessons to Save Your Life - 5 Stars I also started and gave up on a few books: "The Story of Arthur Truluv" - nope, not happening. I got 20 or possibly even more percent in. I didn't like it one bit. I read some awful reviews and that convinced me even further. It was pointlessly overly graphic. Completely unnecessary. You know when it doesn't add anything to the story? That sort of rubbish. "Where the Forest Meets the Stars" - couldn't get into that at all. I need to be more selective about fiction. "Too Soon Old, Too Late Smart: Thirty True Things You Need to Know Now" - skimmed through it. No.
  10. @mumto2, hope you feel better very soon. @Maus, sounds like a fun and memorable road trip!
  11. Kindle book on sale today. And this one which I'm not sure about.
  12. Thank you for the thread, Robin. I read Interviews with History and Conversations with Power - 4 Stars and A Woman Makes a Plan: Advice for a Lifetime of Adventure, Beauty, and Success - 5 Stars
