What's better than books and food?
I read two books in October that I wanted to share today on the blog. I also purchased an air fryer after contemplating the purchase for two months. Both of these highly interesting topics are what make up this post today.

It was supposed to be a typical sleepover for three twelve year old friends Cora, Violet, and Jordyn. But after a decision to sneak out and head over to the railroad yard everything changes.
The sleepover ends in a bloody scene with questions and no answers.
This book dives into the friendship, betrayal, and social pressures. It is told from different perspectives: the girls, the doctor, and the police, as well as the family members.
I love a good thriller and considering I have a twelve year old myself - I couldn't put the book down.

And so it begins...
It's a good book.

I bought an air fryer. I'm not sure why I spent two months asking myself a couple times a week if I wanted one or not. Last week I was perusing Amazon (a favorite pasttime) and there was an air fryer on "lightning deals" for $50.
I hit "buy now" - and that's all she wrote.
The thing came on Tuesday and I haven't used it yet.
What I'm wondering is this:
Do you have one?
Can you share a favorite recipe?
My daughter is ready to make donuts.
I'm ready for chicken tenders and sweet potato fries myself.

Happy November, friends. This month is one of my most favorite aside from the time change (you're well aware that happens Sunday morning. I am too.) Oh and the temperatures dipping into the thirties.
This is my last weekend as a thirty-something before I turn thirty-something-else. I have a goal of getting to my favorite little spot in the high country - Blowing Rock.
