STOP WHAT YOU’RE DOING AND #READTHISSPINE! #PubDay Book Review 🎉🎉 @acevedowrites has done it again!!! #ClapWhenYouLand is out in the world today 👏🏽✈️💚💕💙⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ What a heartbreaking yet breathtaking book! WOW! This is the story of two sisters, Camino and Yahaira, who never knew the other existed until their father dies in a plane crash. Liz addresses several familiar themes; class, culture, race, grief, trauma & family secrets but at the core is love! ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ There were so many times I was reduced to tears reading this book. Having lost my father in a tragic car accident I felt the searing pain through Liz’s beautiful words. In an instant life as you know it has changed. One moment he’s here and in a blink of an eye he’s gone. It’s beyond life altering. You literally want to world to stop, to acknowledge your pain and scream at everyone to stop what you’re doing my dad is dead. The truth of the matter is the sun will rise the next day and life goes on while you are stuck with suffocating grief. I felt every movement of Camino & Yahaira’s journey through grief. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ This story touched my heart in such a way that makes me want to shout from the rooftops that everyone should read it. I don’t know how Liz does it but she captures the essence of human traits, feelings and circumstances to perfection. As a reader you can’t help but to connect to her characters & the story. She addresses real life issues & her writing gets more beautiful with each book. ⁣ ⁣⁣ “How could I have known then there are no rules, no expectations, no rising to the occasion. When you learn news like this, there is only...falling.”⁣⁣ ⁣ Rating: 🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷 Cheers ⁣ ⁣⁣ I’m a FOREVER FAN! Happy Book Birthday Liz! Cheers to you 🎉⁣⁣ ✈️⁣⁣ I paired this book with my favorite rosé @miraval. Seems like I’m always pairing a rosé her books 💕⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ 📚🍷⁣⁣ .⁣⁣ .⁣⁣ .⁣⁣ #spinesvines #booksandwines #diversespines #drinkthisvine #drinkthiswine #bookreview #mustread #roseallday #miraval (at Washington D.C.) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_07-YNAYPF/?igshid=ii86agvqk6y

#DrinkThisVine | This is the only #mondaymotivation that I need! Wine delivery from @cakebreadcellars 👏🏽🙌🏽 The smile on my face when this box arrived was priceless. Oh the JOY! I was introduced to Cakebread Cellars Sauvignon Blanc over 10 years ago and I’ve been a fan ever since. It’s exquisite, definitely my favorite 💚💛 ⁣ 𝟐𝟎𝟏𝟖 𝐕𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐓𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐍𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐬⁣ ⁣ The wine opens with vivid tropical aromas of white flowers, ripe melon, and sweet citrus. The citrus and tropical characters extend onto the palate with ripe guava and crisp pink grapefruit, balanced by bright acidity and accented by a flinty vein of minerality. This is a zesty wine that stands up well to shrimp, crab, grilled vegetables and is perfect for a cheese plate!⁣ 📚🍷⁣ .⁣ .⁣ #spinesvines #booksandwine #drinkthiswine #napavalley #cakebreadcellars #sauvignonblanc #californiawine #winedrinkers #winetime #quaranwine (at Washington D.C.) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_yOLplgqzu/?igshid=q0we54stxzzg
