I’ve tried Sally Rooney so many times but the lack of quotation marks stops me every time 😫 maybe audio book is the key for me there??

Congrats on the writing breakthrough though! I love it when that happens and one small change sparks a few others. It sounds like you really have your spark back with it all 😊

I think it would be such a great audiobook to listen to! The lack of quotation was really hard for me at first, but the more I get into the story the less I'm noticing it. But I don't think I could read many books like this haha.

And thank you so much! It's so exciting to finally feel like I have my flow again 🤎

Loved Addie LaRue and did a re-read of Daisy Jones prior to watching the show. Great recs.

I love that as I’m baking I’m 90*F weather you are cozying up for winter. Daisy Jones was so good and contributes to my obsession with rock n roll stories, which are surprisingly not abundant.

I have to admit I'm a little jealous of the hot weather you're having! But it has been the perfect weather for cosying up with a book 🤎 I wish there were more books in this genre too!

Wow, as a HUGE fan of ‘Dracula,’ I’m stunned (and frankly, a little embarrassed) to learn about ‘Carmella’ and that was Stoker’s inspiration. Amazoning a copy right now.
