My heart stopped. To have someone (for the @nytimes!!) read this book with such care and understand it for all it is, it’s more than I process. Thank you @michelleorange. I’ll be over here bawling again it’s fine 🍊 🥭 nytimes.com/2024/03/30/books…

I experienced a rush of nostalgia reading the "Gainesville" chapter in the book. It's probably the fastest I've read a chapter in any book and felt like I retained everything in a long time.

You still have to be mindful of the kitchen ghosts even with the recipe in front of you.

Thank you Craig! Happy Book Lovers Day to all 🧡🥭 📚
Turning from fiction to non, my list of new #Florida books for National Book Lovers Day must include the riveting memoir THE MANGO TREE by @ATometich goodreads.com/book/show/1958… 4/
THE BEST 🧡 Thank you Molly!
The best mail? Mango mail.
@ATometich’s memoir covers a lot of ground - but I was (obvs, lol) drawn to the sections about her career in journalism.
It’s spectacular. Read it.
(Also, I had no idea Kindle could create cute quote cards from highlights?!)
