The Reckless Oath We Made by Bryn Greenwood  Published: August 20, 2019 Buy: Audio | Paperback | Kindle I’m not even sure how to describe this book but it was one of the best books I’ve read in a long time. While Gentry speaking in Old English took some getting used to it was well worth it.

Taking care of her younger sister and her nephew and helping her unappreciative hoarder mother.

Gentry is used to people thinking he is odd and not understanding his quest. His parents treat him like a child, but Zee sees him for the adult he is and accepts his unique ways unconditionally....

Not to mention it will be nice to have some fresh eggs! My garden has been flourishing this year, and I have had to come up with some creative ideas for some of the produce I've had. (I will say that the zucchini noodle lasagna I made was fantastic!) I am also canning a bunch of stuff to use during the winter. (I have hobbies and interests outside of reading!)  I am also super excited for the Philly bookstore crawl! I can't wait to share what I found while exploring some ...
