February Highlights:
I read One Day by David Nicholls when it was originally published and absolutely adored it and was therefore so excited to see the movie adaptation with Anne Hathaway. Unfortunately, that adaptation did not meet expectations. Fast forward to present day where Netflix chose to give this beautiful romance a second chance, but in television/streaming form. I am happy to report that I binged the new series and can confirm that it was a spectacular re-boot! The cast was perfection, the choice to adapt the book into a series instead of a movie was inspired, and I will be recovering from the ending of the show for quite some time. PLEASE read the book and binge the series ASAP – you won’t regret it!

The author of my favorite current series (The Thursday Murder Club), Richard Osman, is releasing the first book in his brand-new series We Solve Murders which will be published on September 17, 2024! If you’ve never read his original series, consider checking it out before the new one comes out this Fall (to me it’s a mix of Agatha Christie meets the Golden Girls).
