    The Queen’s Gambit Book Review ~ Chess Moves that Moved Me

    November 17, 2020 / 1 Comment

    I must admit, when my husband suggested this as our next Netflix binge I was iffy at best. An entire series on chess? How completely boring, I so wrongly thought! This series was so fascinating that as soon as I realized it was based on a book by Walter Tevis I had to read it! The book did not disappoint.  Written by Walter Tevis Coming of Age, General Fiction Kentucky and beyond, 1960s N/A Share on facebook Share on twitter Share on linkedin Share on pinterest Share on email Share on google Book Review The Queen’s Gambit  5/5 An orphaned girl glows up to become a shark in the…

Whatever shall we do after reading the Bridgerton Whatever shall we do after reading the Bridgerton series?? ⠀
⠀
I have an answer, my friends: Edie Cay. ⠀
Three words- Feminist 👏 Regency 👏 Romance 👏 ⠀
⠀
When @authorediecay reached out to me to request a cocktail creation for her new book, The Boxer and The Blacksmith, I was flattered. But after reading the book, I was honored. ⠀
⠀
✨✨(Win two copies now- one for you and one for a friend!! Check out my last post to enter the giveaway through today, 1/14.)✨✨⠀
⠀
Now for the cocktail deets. Gin, club soda, honey and charred orange simple syrup and a purple iced tea cube. ⠀
⠀
All of the heat and smoke of a blacksmith with the knockout punch of a boxer. 🥃 This complex yet simply delicious cocktail is a wonderful accomplice to Edie Cay’s Feminist Regency Romance, The Boxer and The Blacksmith. I highly recommend both! ⠀
⠀
Full recipe and book review up on the blog! Link in bio.⠀

Daisy Jones and the Six ~ A Rockin Good Time⠀
⠀
Is @tjenkinsreid Janice Joplin reincarnated? How does she come up with this realistic to the bone, all encompassing look into rock stars’ lives? And not just one but 7 of them?!? I absolutely loved Evelyn Hugo and Daisy Jones rocked. I bow to the talent that oozes out of TJR and she will always be an automatic buy for me. ⠀
⠀
PS. I very highly recommend listening to this book on audio. The star-studded cast of narrators includes Jennifer Beals and Benjamin Bratt 🤩⠀
⠀
Also, stay tuned. Thanks to @librariana_ I am now aware of a peanut butter whiskey 🥃 that will compliment Daisy Jones perfectly. 🔥⠀
