But the real question is…which brand of ramen made you feel better?

Have you read The Dead Romantics? Read it if you haven’t. These aren’t rom coms but I highly recommend The Midnight Library and Margo’s Got Money Troubles.

OOOh,. Totally feeling the book thing.

I've had to mix up my genres to get back into my groove.

what are you dabbling in now? I'm thinking Ina's memoir might be my next book to try and get some motivation in books and in life LOL

I just read Griffin Dunne's bio and it was really interesting. I've also been trying more women's lit with my traditional rom coms.

I've been trying to have like one non-fiction balanced in there with my lighter reads. This is my next one: https://www.amazon.com/Shouldnt-Be-Telling-You-This/dp/1335455078

(I have some of the ones I've read here- https://caitlinhuggins.substack.com/ )

Girl this couldn't have come at a better time. I'm annoyed with everything today. Re: books, I've really liked Carley Fortune's books though they're less silly and painfully cheesy and more painfully realistic and emotional (in a good way). The Done and Dusted series and Lovelight Farms series have been good cheesy reeds recently.

hahah you're so sweet! I thought I'd read the Done and Dusted series but now I'm thinking that's a different Western romance and I need to read!!

I realized I hadn't finished Carly's "This Summer Will Be Different" the other day and picked it up again, only to put it back down bc they broke up again but I really do love her writing!!!

My PPD (just had my second in Feb) is screaming to relate to this "being in a funk" feeling.
