Hello friends,
My trip is complete!
Annette and I had a glorious trip around Pennsylvania. Almost every location had a ghost story associated with it. Lots of inspiration for writing projects.
We went to various bookstore, but of all the bookstores we visited, Pocket Books was my favorite. This is a feminist bookstore with the most fantastic collection of books I’ve ever seen. I wanted every single book in there, but I exercised self-control and purchased one book, two stickers, and grabbed a free poster on my way out. 😁
Total of books purchased on trip - 7…Maybe I didn’t exercise that much self-control.
I’ll share more details about the books, food, and coffee in the coming week.
What I’ve Been Reading
📖 I Feel Bad About My Neck by Nora Ephron - Have you ever found the perfect book at the perfect time? This was that book for me.
I was in Paperback Exchange browsing their huge selection of books (which were mostly romance). I saw this book out of the corner of my eye, and I was immediately drawn to the bright yellow cover. Then, I saw the title - I Feel Bad About My Neck.
My immediate reaction was okay, great another book about how being aging woman sucks, blah, blah, blah. But knowing that my judgements aren’t always right, I read the first page. Then, the second, third… I read the first essay and did everything I could to contain my laughter.
This woman is in my head. I recommend this book to anyone, but especially to women in their 40s and women going through some changes in their life.
Until next week, take care of you, and Happy Hunting.
