    Happy Place in my happy place. Once again I loved Happy Place in my happy place. Once again I loved emilyhenrywrites’s newest novel. I also had such a blast at her booksaremagicbk virtual event last night that I already want to reread it (along with all of her others)! While I loved the romance, I especially loved the depiction of how friendships evolve over time. So relatable!
    I really enjoyed my most recent read, Family of Li I really enjoyed my most recent read, Family of Liars by E. Lockhart. It’s a prequel to We Were Liars, a book I adored when I first read it years ago, and I’m so glad FoL lived up to my expectations! E.

Such a fantastic book!

    AD: Whenever we try to plan a session with our D&D AD: Whenever we try to plan a session with our D&D group, there’s always a conflict for at least one person (andrew.g.gallagher always jokes that the true villain of D&D is scheduling) but thankfully there are a ton of other ways to play with your adventuring party if you’d like to have a game night but the party must split. We’re so excited to be able to play D&D Trivial Pursuit and Clue with our fellow adventurers! Thank you so much to theopgames for sending us copies! #theoppartner #theopgames #dungeonsanddragons dnd
