Whelp, since the entire world is now obsessed with Netflix’s Bridgerton, I thought it might be pertinent to let you know that the series is actually based on a book. There are EIGHT of them, so if you need more period drama, you’ve got some great reading ahead of you.

Rediscover Your Lunch Break
LOL lunch breaks, what are those? Unless I’m attending a (pre-pandemic) meeting at a restaurant, I honestly haven’t taken a real lunch “break” maybe ever. This… is not good.
