Thank you so much for the shoutout and what a wonderful idea for a date night! Also, jealous of that old Paradise Lost book you picked up! Looks like a good book haul. Stay blessed my friend!

It was a great haul. Really enjoying Paradise Lost - I haven't watched your videos about it yet because I wanted to read it first, but I'm looking forward to it.

Lovely date night and terrific book finds! I am glad you enjoyed Recorder and are looking forward to the remaining two books. 😊

Yes, definitely! And any date night that includes a bookstore, coffee, and a milkshake ain't bad at all.

Date night. Jewellery. Crossing state lines. Sounds like the plot of a novel. Best wishes.
@insearchofwonder 22 күн бұрын
Haha you're right! Except crossing state borders is currently as exciting as crossing the street. 😂 Or in our case, a bridge.

Thankfully, it ended up just being tendonitis not a stress fracture, so it's all better now.

Love that you and Lindsay buddy read Jaime Jo's book. It's one of my favs by her because of the ending.

I don't know if I just missed you explaining this, but I really hope Children of the Stars explained why the parents would allow themselves to be separated from their children DURING A WAR and had a good reason for it.
@insearchofwonder 22 күн бұрын
That was a bit of our frustration with the book and why none of us rated it very high. The only explanation given was that they were trying to get a safe place settled for the whole family and they seemed to think their kids would be fine with their elderly aunt....

Thanks! And thankfully, the diagnosis was downgraded to tendonitis and the pain is considerably less than it was.

Narnia related books! At least, that's my automatic assumption with any mention of a wardrobe. 😂😂😂

Yes, good eye! There were a couple Narnia related books that looked interesting.

I was hoping you got the Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde book at the book store. That store looked a mazing.
