November Book Club

Happy Hump Day! Was a little rough getting started today after the Halloween festivities this weekend but we are off and running with another week here in Shanghai. One of my favorite things to do in my free time is dive into a really great book. I find it especially soothing when I am going thru a stressful or sad time. To me it is like a tiny escape from reality. I thought it would be fun if we did a little monthly book club where I pick and book and then review it at the start of each month. It is perfect timing since we are right at the start of November. I recently just finished After You the sequel to Me Before You ( one of my favorite books EVER ) and was so so so disappointed in the sequel. I almost wish they had just left good enough alone and not written one it was that bad in my opinion. Im not even going to review the book because honestly the plot lacked so much I can even go back into it again ( Im not bitter at all ) So here is hoping that the next book on my bedside table is much more pleasing. I am going to give The Luckiest Girl Alive a go because I have heard many many rave reviews.

In other news I have started preparing the babies nursery! It is SO much harder here to create the nursery I am envisioning well basically because I am in China and all of their import and export rules are super strict and getting stuff in has to go through clearance process and I usually have to show my passport and visa so each item. A major process and headache but it doesn't have me discouraged just have to plan further out and take many many patience pills. I am currently waiting on a rug I have been eyeing for a while should be here within the next week, can't wait to share it with you guys!
