    page 350 - is it a lemon square or is it a cookie?

    “It took two refills before I felt coherent enough to reach for one of the cookies arranged on the tray. “Ohmygod,, that’s good” I murmured through a mouthful of lemon square and powdered sugar. “

    Apparently it’s a “bar cookie”. lol it confused me when I imagined a cookie and then halway through the bite it was bar.

  • *Unique* Library Picks

    I want to know the most obscure books that your local library stocks, especially the unknown series where they have every book.

    For me, it’s the Amish Quiltmaker series consisting of six novels (more to come potentially?), including The Amish Quiltmaker’s Unexpected Baby, The Amish Quiltmaker’s Unruly In-Law , and The Amish Quiltmaker’s Unconventional Niece. They have zero ratings here on PB and I used my long neglected GR account to discover that book one only has about a thousand ratings there, so I don’t know how one would even find a book so unknown! This is no hate to the author or readers, I just find it so funny/interesting how many classic or popular titles are missing, but then there are so many specifically Amish quiltmaker romances (there’s even an Amish Christmas quiltmaker book outside of the main series)!

    I assume it’s one person putting a request in specifically for that series, so every time I see a new one pop up I do think, Good for you 🙂‍↕️ to whoever is using their initiative, submitting the requests, and getting their books approved.

    Now I want to know: what books does your library stock that made you chuckle, pause, go “huh”, or think “good for them” 😅

    Is there a better name for a pig than Rump Roast?

    “People who drink wine are either snobs or drunkards,” Emilie said on a hiss. “I’ll be sure to pass that along to Jesus,” I said under my breath.

    She should have said it louder 🙌 text

    Thoughts from 25% (page 41)

    i watched fall of the house of usher when it came out and i thought it was ass because mike flanagan did it but maybe the source is also not good because so far, this is just plain boring. and considering this is only 100 some pages.....

  • Happy Canada Day!

    Happy Canada Day to all of my fellow Canadians!

    What is your favourite book by a Canadian author? (Preferably set in Canada!) I just finished Liberty Street by Heather Marshall and it is stuck in my mind.

    Also - Historica Canada put out this compilation of Heritage Minutes today: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yr2UY4f75kk . Does anyone have a favourite Heritage Minute? Mine is the one on Bora Laskin: https://www.historicacanada.ca/productions/minutes/bora-laskin .
