How I love when historical romance historicals, Mother Bloor just got a shout out in conjuction with Nebraska.

There are two books I'm looking forward to starting this weekend, Richard Lacayo's Last Light whose subtitle sums it up nicely - How Six Great Artists Made Old Age a Time of Triumph, and the intriguing-looking novel set in Elizabethan London, The Ghost Theatre by Mat Osman. #FridayReads#books#CurrentlyReading@bookstodon
Last week at the library I stumbled across 'Hoopla: The Art of Unexpected Embroidery' from 2009, a very interesting combination of interviews with embroiderers and plentiful photos of their work, with a few chapters briefly going over the practicalities of different types of embroidery, stitches, and supplies.
My library hold for Helen Oyeyemi's newest, Parasol Against the Axe, arrived and I was able to sneak a few pages in yesterday. Taking place in one of my favorite settings, Prague, the book feels like it's going to be a strangely intriguing one. And it has a book-within-a-book that changes stories depending on the reader.
We will make mistakes. We will forget that we belong to one another, and then we will remember again, make amends, and move forward. This is all part of the process.
