What would you do to prove your love?

Hello Book-Lovers,

I hope your day was as delightful as mine! I am asking you what you would do to prove your love because of the book, “It Starts With US.” This book has mixed reviews due to book 1. However, Colleen Hoover did note in the beginning  this book was a slower pace book. I also have noticed that some people are taking notes about allegations against her son and are making a choice not to read her stories anymore. But, what about you?

This also ties into the story because of how Atlas and Lily’s relationship develops throughout the story.  They both have to take things slow but at the same time deal with life events that take place in the story. I really enjoyed the parts where they show they care for each other even when they are so tired and fall asleep. It is now on my bucket list of things to have for when I settle down and get a husband. I will be watching how they will show they care even when life storms blow through or to the days that I am so tired that I fall to sleep.

I remember one time with my ex-boyfriend that I was so tired that I refused to cook that day, it happened to be after a 13 hour workday. He also knew in advance that I would not be cooking dinner that night and he mentioned that he was happy to make dinner that night. But, the reality is…he didn’t. Looking back on that I was upset but then I cooled off after a short period of time. But, I wished I would’ve paid more attention to the small things, taking notes of all the words and actions. I would've saved myself so much time knowing he wasn’t the one for me. And, that was the hardest thing. I am just grateful that I didn’t marry that one after all.

I often think about how I will show my future husband that I care because at this point I really don’t have the time to be dating between reading and writing, spending time with family, and having a passionate career. In good timing, good things will come together; so for now I will stay focused on “World Domination.” ;-)

Here are my questions for you.

1) What would you do to prove your love?

2). How do you know you are loved or that you weren’t?

3). Have you read this book?

4). Have you or will you be watching the movie, “It ends with us?”

5). How do you feel about the allegations regarding Colleen Hoover’s son?

Happy Reading,

If you had a karma voucher, what would it get you?

In this book, “Being Zara,” By Eva Lauder. She brings so many concepts to the story, with the journey of romance as well. And, we have this opportunity to learn about M.S. I really enjoyed the idea of karma vouchers. It makes me wonder if we all had karma vouchers would we get to do amazing things at wonderful places or not?

This play by play book gives you a timestamp of what it is like to be Zara. It was interesting to see how the end was going to play out for Zara because she valued love and wanted to be loved. She had a whirlwind of obstacles in her love life throughout the book. Even with her love life she still valued her baby the most while she was able to work out a dating life too.  Have you ever thought of the choices we make in our love life when we are younger and how that impacts our adult life?  If you could change it, would you???

Happy Readings,
