Day 30 - Madame Chic

Ever since I was a child, I have loved to read. Sometimes I have more time to devote to it than other times but I just love the feeling of getting completely lost in a book. I love when I try to put it down at night but just keep thinking…1 more chapter, just 1 more chapter. Like my music selection, my book selection is well versed. I don’t have a particular genre I necessarily gravitate to. I just love to wander a book store or library and wait for my next read to stand out.

A while back, I stumbled on a fantastic read while browsing the small book selection in my local TJ Maxx. It was a book by Jennifer L. Scott entitled “Lessons from Madame Chic”. This book was so amazing that I actually read it twice. I recommended it to my friends and mother to read as well. It was transforming. Jennifer L. Scott is actually the first author that I have added to my social media pages and followed along with on her web site.

Naturally, when I heard she was coming out with her second book I was thrilled. I called my mom and gave her the heads up. It was just recently released. I hadn’t bought it just yet but was very excited to read it soon. I figured it would be a great summer beach read. However, yesterday I received a package in the mail from my mother. Cleverly, colorfully and cheerfully wrapped in the box, was a gift for my home and this new book! It’s entitled “At Home with Madame Chic”. I was so excited to receive this! I immediately called my mom to offer my thanks!!

So, what was going to be saved as a beach time summer read, I decided to make todays intention. If it’s even half as good as her first book, I’m sure to get through it in a day or two. I finished my work for the day and sat down (yea, you guessed it…with my cup of tea) with one of the prettiest sunset views from my window and savored another days’ intention, only pausing my read to write this blog. #HGAL
