Beastly & Bookish (A Winter Bliss Romance)

by Catrina Bell

Is there anything better than two weeks off with nothing to do except read books? The answer is, most definitely, no.

I have zero game with women. Less than zero, actually, more like forty below and my nuts are freezing off.

There’s nothing I love more than giving someone the perfect book recommendation and introducing them to a story that surprises and delights in a way they never saw coming.

When I get back to reading, my mind finally focuses, and the pages fly by.

This is me when I am not distracted.

I know just what I need to distract myself from real life. Books.

This book is literally relatable!

Bro! This demon is so relatable hahaha

It’s fun for me to share my love of reading and book collecting, but the biggest benefit is finding new online friends I can geek out with.

If loving someone with memory issues has taught me anything, it’s to accept now for what it is, a gift. I want to soak up my time with Rom while I can and treasure every moment like it could be our last. Because soon enough, it will be.

This is what a library can do — celebrate everything all at once. It’s a place where treasures are kept on display, never hoarded and always shared. Anyone can pick a book up off the shelf and expand their mind or find a cozy place to reread an old favorite.

I read books like I read people, for the emotions, the way they move through life, their loves and losses.
