    I really want to read the sequel to Stardust Thief this year??!! It was pushed back, I think. I’m nervous though that it will ruin the first! 😅 I don’t read a ton of new releases so I need to see what’s out there that I’m interested in. I’m trying the second Emily Wilde and I think the third ones out this in spring?

    I've read a couple of Mhairi McFarlane novels. The first one was set near one of my local cities and was funny as some of the rural picturesque sounding names are no longer rural but a bit grimly urban - she lived in the area and obviously found it amusing - the main problem with that one was it ended on a cliffhanger and I didn't know that when I bought it! The second one tackled a difficult topic, the abuse the main male character endured when a child.

    First off, I need to say I love Lola. As I listen and watch you, she sometimes is on the chair behind you, watching the screen it appears. She is a smile maker. And other times she is following her muse. haha I have a fifteen year old beagle, Bitty, who is a character in her own right. Also, regarding the book club, I read Jane Eyre the first time twelve years ago during a difficult, grief filled time. I have just begun to reread it last week. I agree with what you said about being different people each time we reread a book. I am looking forward to these two reads. Also having trouble with joining or even finding the book club on Fable. The page comes instead saying I need to be invited.
