Happy PEOPLE WE MEET ON VACATION day!! ☀️ I’ve be Happy PEOPLE WE MEET ON VACATION day!! ☀️

I’ve been so excited for this adaptation, especially with Emily Bader attached as I adored here in My Lady Jane.

So ready for this movie to transport me away for a joyful moment!

Who else is watching this weekend?
Closed out the year with a visit to Stars Hollow! Closed out the year with a visit to Stars Hollow! Shoutout to @treereads for coming along on this adventure to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Gilmore Girls 🎥
Thank you @macmillan.audio for the gifted book! I Thank you @macmillan.audio for the gifted book!

I loved, loved, loved THERE’S ALWAYS NEXT YEAR! This holiday rom-com is perfect for the new year.

Set on New Year’s Day, we follow cousins Andy and Dominique as they save their small town from gentrification and find love along the way.

I loved the character’s journeys—Andy running around town with the new girl trying to find her stolen car and Dominique returning from New York and reconnecting with his estranged best friend. Both love their hometown dearly and are trying to save their family’s hardware store from being shut down.

Andy is a student journalist, and I loved how articles and transcripts were interspersed into the story. The audio production for these parts was so well done.

Narrators @iamericlockley and @khayafraites were absolutely perfect for this dual POV story! Their voices brought the characters to life, making them feel so real.

✨ About THERE’S ALWAYS NEXT YEAR ✨

Andy was supposed to shed her too-serious student journalist persona and reinvent herself on New Year’s Eve. Instead, she puked on her crush, dropped her phone in a fish tank, and managed to get her car stolen. Now, she only has the first day of the year to stop the gentrification that’s threatening her family’s business, right her wrongs from the night before, and figure out why she feels so drawn to the electric new-girl-next-door. How can Andy find her voice when everything’s being turned upside down?

Dominique is an influencer on the verge of securing a major brand deal that will ensure his future and family legacy. But when he runs into his former best friend, unresolved feelings emerge—and in a small town, there’s nowhere to hide. Not from his cousin, Andy, who has always seen him for his true self, not from his busybody manager, and certainly not from himself. When all the world’s a stage, can Dominique rise to superstardom without leaving behind the ones he loves?

There’s Always Next Year is a dual POV, double love story about what it means to nearly blow your life up, and race to put it back together before your time runs out. And if Andy and Dominique fail? Well, there’s always next year.
What a year! This year has been a busy one full of What a year! This year has been a busy one full of events—both personal and for work.

I attended 28 book events and 1 premiere (for WE WERE LIARS), visited 34 different bookstores, hosted 4 influencer events, and staffed 4 festivals.

And I still was able to read 96 books! I mostly listened to audiobooks, with mystery being my most read genre.

Please enjoy this wrapped, featuring highlights from the year and some of my favorite reads!

What’s a highlight of yours from this past year? Favorite books?

Wishing you a happy 2026! 🥂
