I have such a clear memory of the first time I read this book.
It was summer 2020 and I was still working in retail. I finished a shift and immediately went to my favourite cafe. I got an iced coffee and banana bread and settled in to read. I'd intended to only be there for a little while but I just couldn't put the book down.
Back then it was exactly what I needed. It gave me hope for finding love and for a future I'd never really allowed myself to imagine.
With just one read it became my favourite book of all time.
So, when I was looking for something to read this week and my fiancé suggested I re-read Conventionally Yours, I knew it was the right choice.
I've always related to Conrad and his story. This time more so than ever. I left this story with a new sense of hope this time around. That I do have the power to succeed. All I need is one more move.
This book is still my favourite book of all time. I cannot recommend it enough!! <3
