Books (and Magazines) I've Read This Month

 Hey Y'all!

(*This was supposed to auto post on Friday. Sorry about the delay.)

I did read a few more things this month, but still not as many as I'd like. The magazines keep getting sent, so I keep flipping through them. We've used the air fryer from my mom three times in as many days, so the Black Friday purchase of cookbooks, I feel will be well worth it. I'm still working through the Small Business book, but admittedly haven't picked it up in a while.

I'm almost finished with The Wish by Nicholas Sparks... I really liked him until all his books started reading like screenplays (after The Last Song came out in theaters). It seems he's back to writing book books now, and this one is really good so far. I know I'm in for a double heartbreak with this book, but it's been a good read.

Women's Health occasionally has a few good articles. I don't know who can afford the vacations in Travel & Leisure, but it's a good 15min flip through, mostly ads however.

The Air Frying books:

I haven't made anything from these, but I've bookmarked a few recipes we'd like to try. I have used the temp/time guide a few times.

Nicholas Sparks, The Wish:

1996 was the year that changed everything for Maggie Dawes. Sent away at sixteen to live with an aunt she barely knew in Ocracoke, a remote village on North Carolina’s Outer Banks, she could think only of the friends and family she left behind . . . until she met Bryce Trickett, one of the few teenagers on the island. Handsome, genuine, and newly admitted to West Point, Bryce showed her how much there was to love about the wind-swept beach town—and introduced her to photography, a passion that would define the rest of her life.

By 2019, Maggie is a renowned travel photographer. She splits her time between running a successful gallery in New York and photographing remote locations around the world. But this year she is unexpectedly grounded over Christmas, struggling to come to terms with a sobering medical diagnosis. Increasingly dependent on a young assistant, she finds herself becoming close to him.

As they count down the last days of the season together, she begins to tell him the story of another Christmas, decades earlier—and the love that set her on a course she never could have imagined.

I'm fairy certain I know how this is going to end, but I'm still going to cry...

I should finish this book up this week... then I'll pick a new one. Any suggestions? Let me know in the comments below!

Have a great day,
