Book confession time. 🤫

You start a book.
You simply cannot get into it - no matter how many chapters you read.

What do you do?

🏁Power Through - must… finish. I will not be defeated. I’m an equal opportunity reader.

🚩Put it down for a pause and dive into something different. Maybe im just not in the mood. I’m hopeful but we need some space.

👎🚫DNF. Book, Bye. It’s not you. It’s me. Life is short and I have 473 books on my TBR.

🤣It’s complicated.

Obviously, I turned down the AC, grabbed a cozy blanket, a thick book & hot coffee…

…and pretended it’s fall.

Last month we hosted Bourbon & Books… let’s talk about one of these books that Megan recently finished.

“I loved the suspense!”

✨ Book Review Spotlight: Rumors & Whiskey by Victoria Wilder ✨

Secrets, small-town tension, and just enough whiskey to make the rumors even more dangerous. Rumors & Whiskey is a swoony, addictive read for anyone who loves complicated feelings, messy history, and romance with a little bite.

If you’re looking for your next escape, add this one to your TBR…and then come grab a copy from our shelves. 🥃📚
