The November 10th 2023 Friday Finds | #IndieAuthors ~#Books ~ #Blogs ~ #Keto #SugarFree #Recipes ~ #Crafts
Welcome to this week’s edition of the Friday Finds. As I’m sure you know, I have been dealing with eye issues that have kept me from writing much new content. I have mostly relied on the content I wrote before my surgeries. However, things are looking up. I only have a few more treatments until I am finished. My eyesight is improving every week. I can not thank Dr. Price, Dr. Kelley, and Dr. Hall enough for all their expertise and care over the last few months.
As I’m trying to ease back into my blogging life, I thought a quick Friday Finds would be a good starting place. If you also subscribe to the newsletter, I hope you found lots to entertain and amuse you in the exclusive “Finds” that landed in your inbox the last two weeks.
Please enjoy this week’s post, and be sure you leave a comment below voting for your favorite find of the week.
Peace & Love
Note: I will share purchase links on all recommended items if possible. Every purchase made through my links helps support this blog.

The Lost Bookshop: The most charming and uplifting novel of 2023 and the perfect gift for book lovers!
The Keeper of Stories meets The Lost Apothecary in this evocative and charming novel full of mystery and secrets.
‘The thing about books,’ she said ‘is that they help you to imagine a life bigger and better than you could ever dream of.’
On a quiet street in Dublin, a lost bookshop is waiting to be found…
For too long, Opaline, Martha, and Henry have been the side characters in their own lives.
But when a vanishing bookshop casts its spell, these three unsuspecting strangers will discover that their own stories are every bit as extraordinary as the ones found in the pages of their beloved books. And by unlocking the secrets of the shelves, they find themselves transported to a world of wonder… where nothing is as it seems.
