Books books boooooks! Back with more books. I tend to do these “official” book club posts every season, have you noticed? No? Like, every three months, ya know. Never noticed? Really? Not at all? Huh. Well, today I’ll be blabbing (some in all caps so just prepare thyself) about three favorites from this year. All […]

Bev’s Imaginary Book Club: Beach Read, The Push, and Good Company
Books! And it’s like, prime time reading season. What is it about summer that has people all psychotically shoving paperbacks and e-readers and hardcovers and tablets in their faces? It’s the best. Alright, so these three chosen books are pretty different from each other. One is an easy breezy read, one is D A R […]
Bev’s Imaginary Book Club: Before We Were Yours, The Neighbors, and The Four Winds
Bewks! I mean books! I mean berks! Never mind. Okay, it’s March 11th. I remember one year ago today I was shooting a recipe whilst listening to NPR, and I’ll never forget the feeling of hearing that the WHO (not the band) had just declared Covid a global pandemic. Remember that? It’s been a year. […]
2020 In Books!
We done got readered! (just kidding, mom, I know how to form sentences.) (I think.) FIFTY.FIVE.NOVELS. That’s what we (well, Ashlee and I) read this year. 55! I’m not sure if it was (is?) the combination of being home ALL THE TIME, or needing to escape reality, or the cerebral slack-slash-forgiveness in other life departments, […]
Bev’s Imaginary Book Club: 28 Summers, The Lies That Bind and The Guest List
It’s book daaaaay! (I know you’ve been on the edge of your face for this.) All three of these are recent reads. Within the last few weeks/months. This year. This summer. This era. This season. This now. They’re books that have crawled into my psyche and found a cozy hibernating mental organic cotton pouf in […]
Bev’s Imaginary Book Club: Heartburn, The Turn of the Key, and The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo
Let’s talk shop! I mean books. Book shop. Book club shop. Book club. Never mind. Can you believe it was March 31st when I posted the last official book club blog post? March 31st! That’s like 16 months ago. Remember what I said at the end of that post? I wonder what the world is […]
Bev’s Imaginary Book Club: A Grown-Up Kind of Pretty, The One, and The Nightingale
BEWKS, Y’ALL. (<–I’ve already made you insane.) Welcome to another official book club blog post! It’s been a minute. Things look a little, um, different since my last book post. Well, I figured that instead of food, this might be a nice distraction amidst such a jittery time. Unless you’re reading The Nightingale then it’s […]
Bev’s Imaginary Book Club: Then She Was Gone, Ask Again, Yes and The Great Alone.
Heeeey-oh it’s another book club blog post! It’s been a while since my last OFFICIAL book club post on this internet website url blog. And the question I get so often in my Insta DMs and even some texts from friends is, “Is there an official list somewhere on the blog because I can’t find […]
Bev’s Imaginary Book Club: City of Girls, Daisy Jones and Six, and Where the Crawdads Sing
I don’t know if this can actually be counted as “book club” since it’s 6:15am and there’s zero rosé involved. One can dream. At last! A post I’ve been promising since the Ice Age. Finally had the chance yesterday to sit down on the dirty floor in the front hallway, rummage through a cramped bookshelf […]
