A Few of My Favorite Things Right Now



I'm reading:

Fiction: And They Called It Camelot by Stephanie Thornton

Few of us can claim to be the authors of our fate. Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy knows no other choice. With the eyes of the world watching, Jackie uses her effortless charm and keen intelligence to carve a place for herself among the men of history and weave a fairy tale for the American people, embodying a senator’s wife, a devoted mother, a First Lady—a queen in her own right.


Audible: Sisters of Shadow and Light by Sara B. Larson

Zuhra and Inara have grown up in the Citadel of the Paladins, an abandoned fortress where legendary, magical warriors once lived before disappearing from the world--including their Paladin father the night Inara was born.

On that same night, a massive, magical hedge grew and imprisoned them within the citadel. Inara inherited their father's Paladin power; her eyes glow blue and she is able to make plants grow at unbelievable rates. 


For fifteen years they have lived, trapped in the citadel, with little contact from the outside world...until the day a stranger passes through the hedge, and everything changes.



Nonfiction: Children of the Dustbowl: The True Story of the School at Weedpatch Camp by Jerry Stanley

his true story took place at the emergency farm-labor camp immortalized in Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath. Ostracized as "dumb Okies," the children of Dust Bowl migrant laborers went without school--until Superintendent Leo Hart and 50 Okie kids built their own school in a nearby field.

I'm watching:  Sanditon

About Charlotte Heywood, a spirited and impulsive woman who moves from her rural home to Sanditon, a fishing village attempting to reinvent itself as a seaside resort. Jane Austin's last books.

I'm writing/editing: Love in Greece

A romance set in Greece. I'm pantsing the last half so I can edit next month (if I can ever finish editing Old-Fashioned Wishes).

FOOD: Olives

I found a snack-size pouch of Kalamata Olives at Walmart! I love these olives!
