Welcome to the blog hop. Technically it’s almost fall but we are still in the high 90’s here! I’m so ready for the cooler weather. I want sweater weather, a warm coffee and bubble baths. Hopefully we get a reprieve soon and I can start enjoying the fall.
If you missed what the talented Caro Kinkead had to say, just click and pop back.
Today the incredible Brenda Margriet asks us:
Do you read differently in different seasons? Need lighter reads for summer sunshine and save the deep thoughts for dark winter nights?
I definitely read differently during the seasons. I tend to read heavier in the summer months because the sun is always out. I feel like if I read something heavy I can always go out and lighten my mood. In the winter my mood shifts and I need something light.
With being in a book club I sometimes have to read another book along with it. The last few books have been pretty heavy subject matter. They’ve been really good books, but I need to switch it up. I’ll read the book club book during the day, but at night I’ll switch to a lighter tone.
Whenever I’m feeling sad or alone I always turn to romance. There’s just something about it that can make me feel better and happier. I like to reread Meg Cabot, Sophie Kinsella or my favourite historical romances by Sara Bennett and Anna Harrington.
However, sometimes I’ll be reading a book during the summer or winter and the mood strikes that I don’t want to read that particular book anymore. I’ll eventually go back and finish it, because I’ve always finished a book no matter how terrible it is. I used to only read one book at a time, but now I find it’s many.
That’s it for me today, now continue on the hop to see what the amazing Leslie Hachtel has to say. Until next time!
Today is release day for Leslie Hachtel in Love in the Mix: A Cookbook For Romance Readers To Benefit ProLiteracy!!
This book was created to share two gifts: food and reading. Without the ability to read, we miss out on magic, on thoughts, on being transported to other times and other places. Without food, we wither and without the written word we are less than we can be.
And so, these wonderful authors offered their recipes and their histories and their love so others can have the ability to share their stories.
