GABBY GREENE KNOWS WHODUNIT
This page-turner of a rom-com mystery is a mission worth accepting. A single mother and rookie spy has to go undercover with—and pretend to be married to—her handsome handler at a suspicious wellness retreat. Gabby Greene is still figuring out what her life looks like. As a divorcee, mother of two, and fledgling spy, it’s hard to find the balance between intense espionage work and remembering to pack school lunches.
5 new feel-good books to lift your spirits
If the end of summer feels bittersweet, you may find comfort in one of these new books. Or check out last month’s books to read when you need a break from the news. Championship seasons require athleticism, teamwork and passion, and the Cubs, a high school football team from the California School for the Deaf in Riverside, have all three in spades.
Sam Tschida: Write Like a Mother
I just read this time management book, 4,000 weeks: Time Management for Mortals by Oliver Burkeman. The book begins with the stark fact that we only have 4000 weeks to live, if we’re lucky. That’s not a lot of time, especially for a woman. Let’s face it, we have a lot more to do, unless you’ve figured things out better than I have.

Author Guest Blog: Five Iconic Film And TV Phones By Sam Tschida
People love phones. They’re a small appliance that represents our never-ending hope there is something better to do than what’s currently going on. Teens text in class because they’d rather be somewhere else. Business people text under the table. Partners will doomscroll rather than do laundry.

Review | NetGalley
Chapter One It seems as though I’m the kind of person who lands in the hospital in a cocktail dress on a Tuesday night with no ID and no friends. The doctor says I’ve been in a mild coma for the last two days like Peter Gallagher in While You Were Sleeping, a movie I seem to remember every word of. As for my name? No clue.
