I'm sure that many of you have already watched the sequence of videos that Emmanuel Acho came up with right after the death of George Floyd, but if you haven't watched yet, you have to! Go to his instagram account and watch all the IGTV videos. 
Those videos are what moved me to pre-order this book as soon as he announced it was being released. I got it at the end of last year, but didn't actually start reading it until a couple of weeks ago.... you know I'm behind with my reading goal, but that's for another blog post... 

First book of the year!!! Yay!!! 
I don't remember why I picked this book... I think I saw it on "Hello Sunshine" book club, and I have to say I am surprised about Reese's Witherspoon choice... I made a story on my Instagram account recently about thinking this book was amazing and then finding some little things that made me stop loving it as much.. and I will talk about those, hopefully not spoiling it for you if you want to read it... if there is are any spoilers in this post I will warn you ahead of time so you can stop reading!

I started 2020 with a trip to Los Angeles... it was a long weekend and I decided I just needed to get away by myself and visit my best friends from high school - I have three best friends from HS, but two of them live in LA and one lives here in SF, so I see her more often. 
I get anxious when I don't feel prepared, so I usually arrive very early at the airport. I'm also TSA Pre approved so I skipped the security check line. I thought I would be bored for the next hour and a half until my plane departed, so I decided to visit the bookstore.
