I am loving the show "The Bear". Brutiful. Like you - loved "Tom Lake" & Hello Beautiful". Did you read "Convent of Water" Best book, maybe I've ever read. Loved the interview with Oprah. And "Demon Copperhead". These might be seen as best of 2023. I just finished Bono's Audio Book, "Surrender" which is AMAZING. And read by him with some music. Divine.

I haven’t read “Convent of Water” but I’ll add to my Libby list!

The Bear was amazing. I worked in a Brazilian restaurant in my early twenties. I learned so much about Brazilian culture. We had staff meal together before shift and the food was so good. We shit talked each other, we got lectured, we had our uniforms inspected 😂 what an education! Loved how the show captured it all.

I just finished A Love Song for Ricki Wilde by Tia Williams and I loved it. It’s beautiful, sexy, funny, and moving and the settings (Harlem in the 1920s and today) are great!
