I just had a monthly lunch with girlfriends, and we always end the lunch talking about books. Someone highly recommended "Parable of the Sower." Might add to my elevated fiction list. :o)
And you know I owned the Frugal Hedonism book. I love it, Iove it, I love it. The writing is perfectly done with humor and a zest for life. A keeper.
Ohhh, you had such a good reading month! Isn't Beacon Hill Books so lovely? We took a daytrip down to Boston in February too and visited Lovestruck Books in Harvard Square. It reminded me a bit of Beacon Hill Books, highly recommend a visit next time you're down!
My husband got so much out of The Book of Joy that he created a gathering around it, the Gathering of Joy, based on the Pillars of Joy from the book. Dave Abrams came to speak the first two years, along with his amazing wife Rachel. My husband is currently in Baja Sur Mexico leading the 8th Gathering of Joy!
Whaaat?! That is AMAZING!!! It’s such an incredible book, I love adding in the audio too and hearing both of their voices, I just can’t help but smile. Thank you for sharing this tidbit with me, I love it!
When I looked up the rest of the books in the series, that one immediately caught my attention! The third installment, The Love Lyric, just came out—though learning about it did slightly spoil the situation with one of the sisters in The Neighbor Favor. Still, it sounds fantastic! Both of her sisters have such unique relationship journeys, making for great book plots.
What a lovely trip Brittany! I so enjoyed reading about it. Glaciers was a favorite for me and I just love the cover 🤩
Awe thank you, Megan! yes yes, such a treasure of a book and totally agree-- the cover upgrade is a stunner.
I loved The Neighbour Favour too! The third book in the series is out soon I think x
YAY! Have you read the second?
I have, though I didn't think it was as good as the 1st one.

That's the appropriate way to end a lunch indeed!! It's worth adding to the collection for sure.
Truly!! Those two are a riot, I would love to be a fly on the wall in their world hehe.

Would recommend The Partner Plot as well if you liked The Neighbor Favor! I always have a soft spot for a sister series.

Oh I LOVED the Art of Frugal Hedonism. I usually pass books on after I've read them but that one earned a place on my bookshelf!
I just finished The Big Door Prize by M.O. Walsh and it was great.
I'm so glad you love dit too, what an important little book!! 👏
I have never heard of The Big Door prize but it sounds so interesting, I'll have to keep a lookout for it.
I really enjoyed 5 tuesdays as well. I’d definitely recommend Lily kings novel, Writers and Lovers! One of my all time faves. Great list!
