I always love to read Elin Hilderbrand books in the summer. Nantucket reminds me of home and even though each book is like a Hallmark movie, I find comfort in the expected. Adrienne and Thatchers story is one everyone who has ever worked seasonal jobs or had a crush on their boss can related to. I cried and laughed and called the characters stupid, but all around I love every book I read written by this wonderful woman.

Another mid pandemic mini-mind-vacay provided by Elin Hilderbrand! Adrienne's life was so different from my current one. I was hungry every time I read this book so I had to make sure I only read this at the right times. This year, I have missed tasting menus, eating in air-conditioning, and movies more than ever before. I appreciated this peeling back of the curtain on how The Blue Bistro restaurant operated. It's amazing how much you can enjoy reading about a job you never want to do.
