You can find my full review on Goodreads: the review.
If we were having coffee, I would share a picture of the puzzle I completed. I’m starting my seasonal puzzle lineup. This one was a new puzzle, but the one I am working on next is from my puzzle cupboard.
If we were having coffee, I would share that last weekend I went out for lunch with three friends that I haven’t seen in years. It was a wonderful time, and we plan to do it again soon. It was as if no time had passed. I also visited some family before and after lunch, so it was a day full of smiles and laughs.
If we were having coffee, I would share that there is no link-up this week. Please leave the link to your coffee share in the comment section below, and I will try to stop in for a virtual coffee.

Brewing Coffee, Twisting Words & Breaking Pencils 
The puzzle is lovely! It also sounds wonderful to meet up with old friends. On a completely different subject, did you write about the “Pumpkin spice cafe” a while back? It came up as a recommendation at one of my streaming services and I thought about you when I saw the title. I am listening to it this weekend. Happy Sunday!

Hi, Maria. Yes, I did write about it. I enjoyed the read, and I have another book from that series sitting in my To-Be-Read pile. I hope you are enjoying the story.
