"Good Things" By Mia King

Wow! Good book! (Thanks for letting me borrow it Laura!)

The main character has major change in her life and she needs to work hard to get the ducks back in a row. There is legend involved, which reminds me of the books I have read by Kristin Hannah. (Her books also take place in the Oregon/Washington State area.)

Two of my favorite things about this book are the quotes that begin each chapter & all of the cooking involved in the book. (The recipes are in the back of the book!) A word of caution though... there are some sex scenes that get pretty steamy, so if you are someone who isn't into that type of book, move on.

a little different, these are some of the chapter-leading quotes (in lieu of quotes from the book)...
"Left to themselves, things tend to go from bad to worse." –Murphy's Law


"Life is a series of collisions with the future." –José Otega y Gaesset


"When love and skill work toether, expect a masterpiece." –John Ruskin

Glad you liked it, K! : ) I blushed while reading the sex scenes too. Lol. I tried one of the recipes, and it was sinful; some kind of chocolate cookie (can't remember the name).

: )
