"My mom and I have been doing a 'mini bookclub' with just her and I lately. I picked this book because I wanted a domestic thriller. I'm only half way through and I truly can not detect if Ruby is a murderer or not. The neighborhood watch stays up late and they need to double back quite often so this martini is the PERFECT pairing!"

"Eleanor is a unique woman who goes to great lengths to live by familiar routines. However, a chance encounter forces her out of her comfort zone in this heartwarming novel. Two of her go-to food selections are margherita pizza and cheese scones."

"I have had this on my TBR for forever and thought it would be fun to finally read it while I had the Australian Open on in the background last month. I loved it! But don't worry, you don't have to be a tennis fan to enjoy Carrie's journey. Carrie was not messing around with her blueberries and almonds!"

This classic is a great read for this time of year! I like the character development that Emma goes through. British scones with jam and clotted cream... a great snack while you read. And check out an Emma adaptation! There's everything from movies, mini series, a youtube series, and more.

"I put romance novels on hold for a bit but now I am back in full swing reading them. I highly recommend The Nanny as extremely spicy read for anyone looking for the fine line between erotic and love. Don't shy away from it! Plus as a Swiftie there are are so many Taylor Swift references and music to jam out to."
