Yesteryear What starts as a sharp, satirical story about Natalie, a picture-perfect “tradwife” influencer romanticizing old-fashioned domestic life, quickly turns into something much darker when she wakes up in what appears to be 1855.
The Fine Art of Lying This was a fun read for the busy spring season. I love a good mystery with a little heist energy, and this definitely had enough intrigue to keep me turning the pages. It was entertaining, easy to get through, and had that gla
The Lost Carosuel of Provence I really wanted to love this book, but it ended up feeling a little meh for me. The storyline was intriguing, and I appreciated the themes of grief, healing, and learning to move forward, but something about it never f
Forever Interrupted I’ve had this on my wishlist for years and finally decided to give it a go. It’s one I really wanted to love, but it just didn’t fully land for me. The story is emotional, no question, but it leaned a little to
Strangers I was a little apprehensive about picking this one up because it hit a little too close to home, but I am so glad I did. Belle shares her story with honesty, vulnerability, and emotional depth, exploring not only the heartbreak of being le
Eight Hundred Grapes This was my Winter 2026 pick for the DaFoe Wines Book Club, and it was so fun to come back to it nearly six years later. I love a family drama because, honestly, we all have family drama. The ties that hold us together, the wa
The Lion Women of Tehran It is a beautifully written story of friendship, betrayal, and the kind of loyalty that exists between women whose lives are forever intertwined. Beyond the relationship at the heart of the book, I was also deeply moved by

The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue This book has been sitting in my queue for over five years and I finally listened to it this week. I really liked it and highly recommend it. It leans a bit fantastical, especially with her relationship with Luc, th
Finding Grace I tore through Finding Grace this week and could not put it down. From the first chapter I was all in. It has that slow build where you can feel something simmering beneath the surface, almost like watching a train wreck you know is

DaFoe Wines Book Club

Pairing my love of wine with my love of reading, I created The DaFoe Wines Book Club. A quarterly membership blending good wine, good stories, and the little things that make life feel beautiful.

The Spring DaFoe Wines Book Club shipment has arrived, and this one feels like a little escape to France.

Inside you’ll find The Lost Vintage, our new Estate Cab Franc Rosé, a handmade candle from Kristen Cramer of Global Eye, and a small batch of lavender eye masks I made by hand.

My hope is that this box gives you a reason to slow down for an evening. Pour a glass, light the candle, settle in with the book, and enjoy a little quiet time for yourself.
