The Afternoon Tea Club by Jane Gilley

The Afternoon Tea Club: The new, most uplifting feel good fiction book to read in 2019 by [Gilley, Jane]Jane Gilley wrote a feel-good book with The Afternoon Tea Club.
Although it was difficult to become attached to any of the characters until half-way through, from that point on they became characters that the reader can care about.
I enjoy books that make me smile. Filled with friendship this is a good book to read.

Naturally, Kim's Knitting - Episode 189

The Vow by Felicity Goodrich

The Vow: A Novel by [Goodrich, Felicity]The Vow by Felicity Goodrich is a heart touching book. I had difficulty putting it down once I started it.
It takes place in Poland during WWII but the author doesn't spend too much time on the facts that many should know.
It moves quickly, and as the title suggests, it centers around a couple and a vow. Life doesn't help them to keep this vow, though plus their emotions make it difficult. It is a touching book.

Sit, Stay, Love

Sit, Stay, Love (Love Unleashed Book 1) by [Mentink, Dana]I love this book. Gina is a dog sitter for a professional baseball player, Cal. Cal's mother has a 12 year old dog which has passed on to Cal when she passed away. This is not the only thing going on in Cal's life though. He has a stalker, his father returned, a dog napper and Gina quirkiness. Cal also has to decide if he will forgive his father as God is wanting him to do.
The things that Tippy does in this book are so funny but this is what makes it such a nice story. The tears that will be shed will not be from sadness but from laughter.
