Tag Archives: sheila roberts Edit: Thanks to Jamie (Perpetual Page Turner) I just bought Blackberry Winter by Sarah Joi for my Nook. Only $2.99! (Amazon too!) Guess what? I bought absolutely no books since my last Shelve It. NONE. But I did buy a lot of shelves to put in our new apartment. So that sort of counts, right?

This book sounds incredibly cute! I adore the fact that it’s about chocolate, which is one of my favorite things in the whole entire universe. And I can always get down with a story of an underdog business struggling to survive and a small town coming together to make it happen!

I adore books set cute little towns. I think it’s my love of Stars Hollow coming through. This sounds great. I’m sad to hear there’s not more romance. Like Melissa, I’m sold from the cover alone.

Tina, thanks for stopping in! It IS a fun premise! There’s even a few recipes included. Which is a lovely touch!

Jen, it’s so good to switch up genres. I think you can appreciate your reading so much more! Let me know what you think of this one. 🙂

Melissa, you are right! The cover is ridiculously cute. There’s another one on GR that is like total opposite but cute too. haha

I’m so glad you enjoyed this one as much as you did because I’ll be reading it soon and now I know I’ll mostly likely love it too. 😀 Thanks, Estelle!!

While I’m not so much a fan of the “perfect, fairytale endings,” I do totally love the way you describe this setting. Plus, chocolate? Yes, please. This book sounds adorable. And while I do read primarily YA, there are some days when a good adult book is exaaaaaactly what’s needed.

Sounds quite interesting! Might have to look into it!

April Books & Wine - I’ve been pretty lax about buying books lately too.
I hope you are okay in the wake of Sandy!
VeganYANerds - Horray for moving and putting up new shelves, soon you can buy lots more books to put on them!
And yay for polish-buying! I *think* Julep are cruelty free/vegan so I’m going to see if I can find them here 🙂
And be careful hun, stay safe!
Tara - Please, please, PLEASE be careful this week with Sandy! At least the positive out of this is that you get to read lots and not have to go to work 🙂
