Stopped in the lovely @cafedhibs for the first time this morning and I started this short story collection by @nellfreudenbergerauthor. I adored LOST AND WANTED when I read it last year, and so when I stumbled across this signed copy over the summer at the Center for Fiction in Brooklyn I had to have it. Today seemed like the right moment to finally pick it up.

Wistfully wishing I was under a blanket and in front of the fire with my book. ❄️

Bad at smiling for photos, but good at always stopping at @coffeehouseoncherrystreet when I make it to Tulsa! ❤️ It was a favorite spot of mine when I was in college for late night tea and studying... and now love going back for a gluten free waffle and an oat milk lattes. It’s also the perfect atmosphere to sneak in some reading.

It’s cold and rainy and icy today so here’s a shot from a nicer morning on an orange couch with an orange mug to brighten things up a little bit 🍊☕️ • I’m listening to THE DUTCH HOUSE on audio from @librofm and I love it so much. Tom Hanks does the narration and it’s my first Ann Patchett novel and it’s fantastic. Definitely recommend! I’m also reading LONGITUDE by Dava Sobel, a short nonfiction book about how John Harrison solved the “longitude problem” and invented a clock that could tell accurate and precise time at sea. So far it is fascinating!!

Cozy scene from a snowy Sunday. • I’m reading THE LIFE LIST OF ADRIAN MANDRICK by Chris White. I’m little over halfway through and I think I like it? I do find myself getting sucked in and not wanting to set it down, but I’m not completely sure how I feel about it yet. More thoughts to come when I finish it up. • What’ve you been reading this weekend?

Lots of rain and ice and snow in the forecast soooo hopefully going to be cuddling with these two and a book soon. 💓
