EDITOR'S NOTE

What products are sitting in your online cart right now? While I’m starting to think about fall clothing, I just bought a couple of problem-solvers to help with my day to day: this laptop cleaner to keep on my desk and the Skimm’r-loved portable fan for my scorching afternoon walks. Let us know what you’re buying for a chance to be featured in this newsletter.

The Pairing by Casey McQuiston

The Pairing by Casey McQuiston

  • The story: Theo and Kit are former childhood friends and exes who broke up en route to a European food and wine tour. Because they didn’t make the trip, the tour company offered each a voucher to redeem within 48 months. After four years of not speaking, Theo and Kit coincidentally redeem their vouchers at the same time…and discover they’ll be stuck with each other for three weeks. This is an ideal escapist read for those who’d like to live vicariously through the lovable characters’ European adventures. It’s also packed (and we mean *packed*) with spice. What’s not to love?
