A rom-com set in 1821 with excellent dialogue, wit and some very steamy scenes.

A 29 year old Londoner, Katie works as a PR representative for the LiWebber agency. She and her girlfriends frequently find themselves at odds with the lack of suitable candidates for men to date. When an opportunity to work in Fairlish, Scotland arises - where the men outnumber women 16:1 - Katie jumps at it.

Love these guys and the 1964 fictional town’s characters in Ballybucklebo in County Down in Northern Ireland set between Belfast and Bangor in Ulster.

I read a little bit more in between other books. Got to the part when she boards a ship to visit America to meet with American publishers.

Pausing book for a bit. It’s witty, funny and relatable even though it’s a hundred years old. But as it’s written in diary format and long; I want to take a break from it for awhile.

3.5/4 stars. Once he gets into the actual retelling of the time travelers adventures it’s good. I especially liked the parts involving the above ground easy-living Eloi people and the mysterious underground Morlocks.

Hidden in the story about a neighborhood bookstore and its owner, are philosophical discussions and questions about life, happiness, dreams and goals, and work. It’s a book I already want to read again to soak it up and I’m not even finished.

It’s intense. The first half relays how difficult the work of combat nursing and medicine in the field of war truly is. The author details the blood, loss of limbs and life, the trauma and relentless bombing and fear of snipers. But the bonds formed between Frankie and her fellow nurses are uncommonly strong and deep.
