I think I would get The Buccaneers by Edith Wharton (I’ve been binging the show- highly recommend) or Deep Cuts by Holly Brinkley :)))

I think mixing in this idea of a commonplace section in one of my existing journals could be very cool 🫶🏼

I would love to finish out the Poppy War trilogy; I finished the first one a couple of months ago and I was in love !

I feel particularly close to your Substack Caroline as we both started at the same time!! It’s amazing how far you’ve come, and you deserve it as your writing is just too good! Happy 6 months anniversary 😂💕

I’d love to read Acid for the a Children next, or maybe It Rides a Pale Horse

If I get the gift card, I would love to get @Soman Chainani’s book of fairy tale retellings called Beasts and Beauties (I read it once at the school library and it changed my life, so I NEED TO BUY IT)!!!!

Also I love this quote from Jodi Picoult’s The Book of Two Ways: Every story is a love story.
