Happy Friday, reader friends! My attention span has been suffering lately and I’m not sure if it’s due to the crazy times we’re living in or simply the size of my to-do list! I’m thankful for my auto-buy authors for supplying me with a constant stream of purchase-worthy titles to keep my Kindle full of fresh reads like In Spite of Ourselves by Jennifer Rodewald!

First Line:
“Of all the ways he could have imagined this weekend going, this had never entered his mind. Not once. And if someone had told him it would happen this way, he would have laughed in their face, said Not in a million years, and gone on his way.“

I feel the same way about 2020, Jackson Murphy! Don’t y’all?!
