I read In the Likely Event as well. I liked it but not as much as Fourth Wing. Speaking of Rebecca Yarros, I just read her book The Things We Leave Unfinished. This was an incredible book! One of those books that stays with you for days...I just can't reccomend it enough.

I also just finished Wait for You by Jennifer Armentrout. It's an older book of hers and it's definitely more young adult. Not as good as her current books, but it was good and I got it on sale.

Can't wait for Allison Brennan's new book!!

I will add that to the list... she's really blowing the doors off right now. Excited for her!

Armentrout is another superbly talented author. I like her later stuff too.

I will report in on Allison's book but I'm excited to be reading early!

Now, it's Christmas Presents by Lisa Unger. Otherwise, I'm just running all over the city to find an apartment. 🙈 If possible, one I like.

You know that's like everyone's dream, right? And the opening of a fabulous new Olivia Barry RomCom...

Haha, right now it feels more like some kind of horror story. But I'm staying optimistic.

Oh well, so far I've lived on the Upper West Side, Upper East Side, Tribeca, and Williamsburg (Brooklyn). ~ I would love Brooklyn Heights/Cobble Hill 🤗. But I'm open...

I’ve only stayed in Brooklyn once but it houses my all time favorite pizza joint, Love-N-Dough. Best GF pizza I’ve ever had.

I ♥️ pizza! And pasta. 😋 ~ Brooklyn Heights is a very historic (land marked) neighborhood with treelined streets and old brownstones/townhouses. Really beautiful. Lots of famous writers lived there. Not sure, but I think Elizabeth Strout did. Truman Capote, Arthur Miller, David McCullough, Norman Mailer, and Thomas Wolfe (briefly). I'm sure there are many others. I just love the neighborhood. It has a beautiful view of Manhattan, which is just across the Brooklyn Bridge. ~ I would love to give you a tour (that includes pizza) next time you're in town. 🤗🤗🤗
