      It was nostalgic, with depth. I appreciate the themes of video games and theatre, and the friendship love story.

      Wonderful! Different than what I expected from the description. This book felt modern and relevant to the times, but was also fantastic with sci-fi and fantasy elements. Fun and weird, but dealt with serious issues as well.

      I’ve read a quarter of my July Book of the Month. I married a game developer, so I was excited to try a book about game developers, and I love the different time periods and locations so far.

    • Finished: The Wedding Dress Sewing Circle

      The Wedding Dress Sewing Circle was a lovely book. It was told from the point of view of three different women in England during World War II. I loved getting to know each character and easing into the village. This book was filled with women helping each other, and included some sweet romance. I also enjoyed the detail about clothes rationing, “make do and mend”, and wartime “utility” design for clothes.

      I’m really enjoying The Wedding Dress Sewing Circle, my Book of the Month book for June! It’s been a while since I’ve read a first-time book in paper format that wasn’t for my kids, and it’s been really fun.

      My birthday was earlier this month, and as part of my celebration I finally ordered a Book of the Month box. I selected The Wedding Dress Sewing Circle as my book of the month. I added on The Sound of Stars as well, a book which I’ve already read and enjoyed in ebook format.
