We’re falling in love with all things romance.

From beginning to middle to end, the human connection is what makes stories so addictive. Love stories. Heartbreak. Friendships. We grow to know their characters as our neighbors, every scene and page making us who we are.

P.S. I Like You: The Flatshare by Beth O’Leary

The idea of this book is what first caught my eye: Two strangers sharing an apartment, splitting the day down the middle. It sounds illogical, but Tiffy and Leon soon find home in each other, not just their shared apartment.

Rose Glasses and Tender Chicken: FRESH by Margot Wood

The quintessential “Emerson” atmosphere promised was tempting to a grad myself, and yet despite the glowing Goodreads reviews, I am disappointed. Let me explain.

February Favorite

One Day (2011)

This movie is in no way new, with A-List starlet Anne Hathaway of this year’s highly-anticipated “The Idea of You” opposite ‘00s British heartthrob Dexter Mayhew, but it will quickly become a winter favorite. A first-time fling that turns into a lifelong friends-to-lovers will-they-won’t-they, this movie will make you swoon and break your heart. Plus, the remake limited series arrives on Netflix February 8th.

Laugh-out-loud quotes

“The feeling I get from this book is that its more about the plot that the story, which neglects my favorite part of reading: not what happens but how and why. And she lists Kasteel Well as being in Amsterdam. Don't know why that bothered me so much.”

“It’s a bit more British than most books I read, and I know that sounds weird, but I absolutely found myself developing an accent after long periods of reading, thinking of each character’s voice so much when reading.”

— on The Flatshare by Beth O’Leary

“It’s all very Romeo and Juliet, if Romeo made a tally of every time Juliet wore a skirt to work and then crashed every almost-date or work meeting Juliet had because he was jealous, followed by telling sexual dreams from the night before.”
