Hello everyone!! We had a very big week of very important appointments; it was rough but I also feel like we can put it all to rest for a while and move on. (hopefully!)
I had the perfect book to read during this crazy week though.
I absolutely loved this book. Definitely a five star for me. It is wholesome and heartwarming and not only did it feel like a warm hug, I wanted to hug it back. I checked it out from the library but I need my own copy. It’s a very simple story, but also so impactful. It is going to be a hard book to follow. I am still in that world and that feeling which makes moving on to another book difficult!
I have a few I am trying.
Hopefully one of these sticks!

Saturday Afternoon Coffee Catch Up
Watching:
Not a whole lot right now. We have been watching Joe Pickett at night and that is it. However, Lisa from Boondock Ramblings and I are about to begin our Comfy Cozy Cinema this month and we will be busy watching movies that feel cozy, make us laugh, and around Halloween, maybe feel a little spooky, but not too spooky! Feel free to join in! We will have a linky and our first posts will go up on the 25th of September!
And that is it from me today! I will be around visiting blogs later tonight and tomorrow morning! I hope that whatever you do today you do something that makes you smile!
I just put in a request for Cat’s People. I feel like I have picked up and put down so many books this summer. I guess I’m just in a mood.
So glad you and Lisa are doing the Comfy Cozy Cinema. A lot of them are new to me.
I have done the same. I think a lot of people have! Maybe it is the state of the world right now…
I am looking forward to settling down in fall. It’s been a crazy summer, and I need to get back to just routine.
You have me wanting Cat’s people now too. I like your movie lineup. I’ve seen a few on your list.
Thanks Tina!! It was such a happy book. I really needed that!
It’s been a noisy weekend here with the NHRA Nationals going on…the racetrack is just a hop, skip, and a jump from us. But, I kinda like the noise! I’m reading a collection of short stories set in some Vale…you may have recommended it. I like these because they’re little stories I can read then go on. I also read The Willows, and oh, my word! Is it scary, is it weird…what is it? We just finished The Thursday Murder Club, and it was so good! I hope you have a wonderful week ahead with some time away from appointments.

I could see that it might be kind of nice in the background.
It is both I think, right? Lol. Definitely weird lit. I have been really into that lately, only a bit at time though, because it is … weird. Lol.
Thank you Marsha! I hope you have had a good weekend!!
We had a big week of appointments and it was good to verify things we suspected. Enjoy your holiday weekend!

Thanks Anne! I hope that your weekend went well!
Awww! I might need to read Cat’s People. I love cats.
It is a very sweet and I just loved it so much.
The cover for Cat’s People is so cute! Have a great weekend!
It was such a cute book, so heartwarming. I could gush about it all day!
Cat’s People seems like such a popular book right now! It sounds wonderful.
I really loved it. It was just so heartwarming and happy.
Oooh! Cat’s People look like an interesting book!

It was so cozy! I loved it so much.
Cool!
Cat’s People looks adorable!
It absolutely is!
I’m sorry you’ve had a busy, difficult week Erin. I hope things are okay and that you can get good news. Take care.
Thank you Jodie! It was long with so many appointments but they all went well. 🙂 Just another very long day tomorrow with them and hopefully we will be done for a bit!
Good list for Cozy Cinema!
Thanks Joy!
Aw, always nice to enjoy a book so much like that! I hope you find something else that suits you soon, though.
Thank you! I definitely have book hangover from it.
I love a book that gives me a good book hangover. It is an infrequent experience for me. Come see my week: Inside of a Dog: It’s Monday! What Are You Reading? (September 1, 2025) Happy reading!
Cat’s People was just such a lovely, warm little world. A cocoon of just goodness. I didn’t want to leave!
Glad you liked it so much. I also love that you count The Mummy as a comfy cozy movie.. lol.
Lol! I think it is all the librarian stuff.
So sorry to hear you had a difficult week but I’m glad it seems like that’s done and you can move forward. I’m also glad that Cat’s People made you feel hugged! You’ve made me curious about the book and I’m going to see if I can get a copy. Hope you have a much better week ahead!

It’s wonderful to have a such a moving book when you’re having some stressful times! Hope you have a better week ahead!
Thank you Rachel.
I hope this week is better for all of you.
Cat’s People sounds good! I just finished a not-quite-cozy fantasy, Greenteeth by Molly O’Neill. I don’t know that it will exactly fit the bill but it’s a found family and some quests and it made me feel happy and remember the fantasy books that made me fall in love with fantasy in the first place.
Oh funny story – when The Englishman who Went up A Hill etc came out, I went to see it with my very English boyfriend at the time. He wore a linen suit or something and I had a flappy long skirt and my hair was in a bob and we basically accidentally dressed as the main characters! Oops!
