I love Maeve Binchy! I was so sad when she died. She brings me back to days spent reading with my Nana. She had all of her books and would loan them to me.

Maeve Binchy's books are so hit or miss for me! Scarlet Feather was my first and I looooved it. But I haven't found another that I've loved as much. Though I think I've only read 3 or 4 at this point. I own a few that I haven't read yet.

I'm in such a huge holds queue for Whiskey in a Teacup! I love Reese, she's a doll! I just checked, I'm down to #13 on 5 copies for the audiobook, woohoo! I've had it on hold since Dec 17.

I do have a lot of space and a lot of physical books I haven't read yet. lol. I hope to focus on physical books this year now that I have enough bookcases and they're all full! I literally don't have room for one more physical book. lol!

I made sure when we were buying our new house that I would have a library and my husband wanted a finished basement. We both got what we wanted! We just spent a little more. lol. But we'll be in this house for the rest of our lives so paying a more for what we wanted was fine! I have essentially 8 bookcases lining the walls of my library. It's heaven!

I loved her in that show too! I generally love all her movies! Plus, she is such an avid reader and her book club selections are always pretty awesome.
