Is it too late in the day for a third cup of coffee? Nope. 😅 That’s pretty much how the last two weeks have been going. And this crazy storm we are having is not helping. Anyways, I’m working from home today, what are you guys up to? And if you’re looking for something to read that will definitely surprise you, then check out Creatures. 👇🏾 👇🏾 👇🏾 Evie grew up with her well-meaning but negligent father, surviving on the money he made dealing the island’s world-famous strain of weed, Winter Wonderland. Although her father raised her with a deep respect for the elements, the sea, and the creatures living within it, he also left her to parent herself. With wit, love, and bracing flashes of anger, Creatures probes the complexities of love and abandonment, guilt and forgiveness, betrayal and grief—and the ways in which our childhoods can threaten our ability to love if we are not brave enough to conquer the past. Lyrical, darkly funny, and ultimately cathartic, Creatures exerts a pull as strong as the tides. Today I've partnered with @algonquinbooks for a great giveaway!

🎈 Happy Pub Day to CREATURES by Crissy Van Meter 🎈 This is my second book of the new year, and I am loving it so far. The writing and atmosphere are giving me major Where-the-Crawdads-Sing type vibes. I can’t wait to see how this book ends❗️ . 🐚 . Thank you to @algonquinbooks for sending me a free copy 🙌🏼 . 🐚 . On the eve of Evie’s wedding, a dead whale is trapped in the harbor of Winter Island, the groom may be lost at sea, and Evie’s mostly absent mother has shown up out of the blue. Evie grew up with her well-meaning but negligent father, surviving on the money he made dealing the island’s world-famous strain of marijuana, Winter Wonderland. Although he raised her with a deep respect for the elements, the sea, and the creatures living within it, he also left her to parent herself. . 🐚 . #creatures #crissyvanmeter #algonquinbooks #jennblogsbooks #newbooks #pubday #bookstagram #bookblogger #bionicbookbabes #bookshivers #shelfie #booklover📚 https://www.instagram.com/p/B7CVv5sFfud/?igshid=1a4ktmbitmjr7
