Across space and time—some books I loved this year. I know I didn’t write about books or wine or much of anything, this year, and I’m not ready to promise much more aim for 2025, but maybe just maybe. Thanks for still being here. Appreciate all you 🪱❤️✨✨📚

Some books I read in September on an island. And even though it’s now October, I wrote about them some other things too. Cheers to finding something new, in books, over and over again 🥂

My Spring crushes including Carson McCullers iconic haircut, porch reading season, entering my biography era (maybe?), and the newest vintage of Color Collector Gamay Noir 🌸
I’ve never been one for traditional biographies (I want more of the author, not just the subject, I suppose) but after having such a moment with Mary Dearborn’s frank and absorbing biography of Carson McCullers this weekend, I’m thinking maybe I should start reading more? It’s not lost on me, pairing a wine with much of the subject matter of this book, and McCullers life, but this Gamay Noir is up for it— dark fruit and currant, soft and delicate with an acidity that hits in the back of your mouth and lingers through all 400 ish pages. Sorry, you might have to get yourself to to buy some, but I promise it will be worth it.

One book, two moods, and a lesson in embracing ambiguity in April, or, if I’m being honest, for a lot longer. Also, If someone can find me either of these beverages on the west coast you’ll be my hero cause I need to consume them again 🍓🫐
Full “review” about these beverages and novel (read twice) in which I, once again, wildly impose myself upon the text just hit your inboxes 💌 Apologies in advance to Sarah Bernstein, whose novel really got inside me and wouldn’t let go.

“I realize more and more these days that people finish things and live in a world of time.” — Did we miss February’s one moment for Romance? Hopefully not. A belated pairing that stirred a little flutter, hitting everyone’s mailboxes this morning for free [with sincere apologies for being so late to it] 💌💕

Moving slowly into the reading, drinking year but already picking favorites ❤️ One novel drank on either side of the year, with two different bottle of the same wine. Full book and wine notes hitting inboxes this morning 💌
For January, Isabella Hammad’s stunning Enter Ghost with Laurent Saillard Ça se discute pineau d’aunis.

I’m not sure I’m allowed to still be talking about my favorites from 2023, but I’m doing it anyways. A substack on taking my time in 2024 and my favorite half-mad books from 2023 💌📚🍷

Last night, I drank with loves in Seattle, and today I walked 10 miles around Brooklyn with another love and ate this sandwich in the sun. If you know me, that (plus the book I’m about to finish) is my most romantic day. It’s been a hectic but sweet end to the year; there’s much I thought I would have done by now— mostly, telling you all about my favorite books of 2023, most of which hovered around a certain madness— some of which I know, and others I could feel. For now, let’s just say coming soon— maybe this year, or maybe in the next 😘
