Demon Copperhead is a wonderful read, so long and well-written. The kind of book to get lost in...

ACOTAR fan here! I just read Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros, so great! The next book comes out in November, a reminder that sometimes we have to be a little patient for the really awesome things! (Like your book hehe!)

Ok SO! I had a sad couple of fennel heads in my fridge so when this recipe came out I knew I had to make it! I’m usually not a butternut squash fan but all of your recipes are so awesome so I picked up a butternut squash at the farmers market and made it tonight for dinner!!!!! Let me tell you! Best butternut squash soup I’ve ever had! The warmth from the nutmeg (I fresh grated which was def a labor of love but worth it) was really well balanced by the onion and the paprika (out of cayenne atm). The fennel salad was giving fennel tzazitki vibes and it added such a fun tang to the soup and it was all so yummy! Thanks so much!

Do you do cooking classes? You have an intuitive way of cooking that is intriguing so I wanted to ask. A friend and I are wanting to visit NYC in January (free time for both of us) and are looking for interesting cooking classes to take. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks--

YES fall and cooking and soup with salad on top, but HAMNET! Such a gorgeous, searing novel. I’m envious of anyone who has it to look forward to!

Just finished tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin, and Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus. Super enjoyed both! 💙

Just finished ACOTAR myself! I think you’d really enjoy the StoryGraph app for keeping track of your reads. Has a lot more graphs and charts and as a data nerd I really love it. Plus it’s not owned by Amazon like goodreads and they’re dedicated to continually making the app better 😊

Absolutely love Goodreads! Hamnet is a great book as well!

I love a heavy book or a series for fall. Last year, it was Anna Karenina and LOTR. The year before I ate up the His Dark Materials Trilogy!

Harry Potter gives me biiiiiig fall vibes! Babel: An Arcane History by RF Kuang is a great fall read. The Secret History by Donna Tartt is too but I wasn’t a big fan tbh. Others love it tho! And I MUST mention Legends & Lattes by Travis Baldree!

I love the idea of slop season! Now is the time for us all to revel in a bolstering bowlful of something that hovers between solid and liquid 😂 Fennel and squash is such a wonderful combination, I myself have been making vatfuls of squash and apple soup using fruits I have foraged from a local community orchard. I shall be buying a fennel bulb imminently!

The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue has been my comfort reread for years now!

Detail packed and with such depth on time, love, and inner struggle without having to use all your brain cells to understand what in the world is going on - I love it!
