    Holly Kennedy, The Sideways Life of Denny Voss and red wine

    I had the privilege of reading this book months before it was released and it has felt like I've been keeping an amazing secret, but now that it's out and I really want tot talk about it with someone! Anyone! MOM! read this book!!! This book has a HUGE heart, an unbelievable protagonist and absolutely show-stealing secondary characters. Holly and I talk about how Denny just arrived in her head one day and has been with her for years. We also have a really frank and interesti...

    Myah Ariel, No Ordinary Love and Jelly Pies

    You know how books are often advertised as "swoony" and it's a word that gets tossed around so much that it's perhaps lost it's meaning? I couldn't tell you before reading No Ordinary Love what it meant for a book to be "swoony." Enter - No Ordinary Love and in particular Miles. And... I get it now. Swoony, for me, has everything to do with the hero. And Miles is a hell of a hero. So, grab yourself a Jelly Pie (not a drink) #iykyk and read this gorgeous romance that straddles the...

    Lauren Willig, The Girl From Greenwich Street and Cherry Bounce

    Oh! OH! This book! This weird drink! And Lauren! What is not to love about this episode? I love everything Lauren writes - her touch with historical fiction is so deft. It's enlightening and page turning and as a reader I am never once bogged down by research - so much so her books feel like peeks into the homes and hearts of real people living in fascinating times. And this book is part court room drama, part true crime story - staring Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr, before th...

    Lauren Evans, Casket Case and the second cheapest red wine at the store...

    The premise of this book made me gasp. Made me read far into the night. Nora is dating Garrett. Garrett works for death. Clever, right? But there's more... Garrett is middle-management for death. There's a company structure and he's working his way up the ladder. This, of course, is totally a secret. He says his job is logistics and that makes sense. Nora is grieving the loss of her family while taking on the family business A Casket Store. Yep. In small town Alabama. So, it...

    Rochelle Weinstein, We Are Made of Stars, White Wine

    I sat down with a glass of white wine to talk to one of my favorites - Rochelle Weinstein about her latest novel We Are Made of Stars. If you are a fan of the TV show White Lotus or the book/TV show Nine Perfect Strangers - this book is for you. Strangers gather at an inn for a week and drama unfolds. There's good food, excellent wine and everyone is keeping secrets. We talk about the pleasure and PAIN of writing a book with so many points of view. Rochelle is also a passionate b...

    Sweet Escape, Jillian Liotta and Meredith Wild and very fancy vineyard wines!

    Oh, we all need an escape right now. The news is crushing. The weather is awful. Even my dog is bummed. Well, Jillian and Meredith have the right book at the right time - Sweet Escape. It's book two in a series but can be read alone, though, why not read the first one too? What else are you going to do? Shovel snow and doom scroll? Come for the romance which is crackly, tension-filled and HOT, but stay for the relationships with secondary characters. We talk about how this partnership c...

    Adriana Herrara, A Tropical Rebel Gets The Duke and a Negroni

    I barely managed to stop this from turning into a fan girl moment for Elizabeth Lowell. It is so rare that I find someone who shares my outrageous fandom for that author - and here is Adriana ready to talk about her for days. BUT we had more important things to talk about - A Tropical Rebel Gets the Duke currently a USA Today Bestseller! Adriana gets very real about ending a series and how writing this series in particular was both a labor of level and very hard. And how tho...

    Chelsea Iverson, The Peculiar Garden of Harriet Hunt, Earl Grey Tea

    I know, I know, I said no more witches but who can resist a sentient garden? Who can resist ivy that senses emotions or a plum tree that's fruit is an opiate? Who can resist a heroine who feels trapped by the garden but the garden is the only thing that's ever taken care of her? NOT ME! I CAN NOT RESIST! The Peculiar Garden of Harriet Hunt is a delicious novel about a woman coming into her power, with touches of magical realism and a sweet hint of romance. Pour yourself a cu...
