Before I used to love being on a plane ✈️, but now it just causes me anxiety 😱 Manuverring in small spaces (the always present risk of falling 😱), hauling around luggage 😱, and inflexible departure times 😱, makes flying stressful 😱 But this weekend I’m going to a city I’ve never been before for some close friend’s wedding 👰 🤵♂️ and old friends will be there too! So I’m excited, yet worried at the same time (my constant state of being 😂)
From what I remember from my last plane ✈️ ride:
Airlines will check all assistive equipment (I believe it’ll be FREE but don’t quote me 😂)
Handling may be rough, so things may break
See my post: Anxiety with flying ✈️😱 👇🏽
Try NOT to rush! Give yourself time and peace of mind!
Pandemic precautions:
COVID test after
Packing lists (so I don’t forget anything 😂)
Airport procedure (because I forget 🤦🏼♀️😂)
Ticket 🎟 purchasing
Make sure to indicate you require more time to board/need assistance (may reserve seats for you 😂)
Download audiobooks (or any media you want to access) beforehand
Airlines I’ve flown:
Note: This is from MY experience. Intended to share tips 💡
Southwest 2021
(+) Customer service 👍🏽 The airline reserves my seats 😁
(-) 🤷🏽♀️
Jetblue 2018
(+) Reserved seating, fast 💨 through security, no limitations on how much assistive equipment I can check in
(-) Broke my seatbelt
Packing tips:
Add a hair towel (hotel towels were thick)
These tips and observations were specific to me! I just hope it helps someone!
Something that always worries me 😱 Going to the bathroom 🚽 on a plane ✈️ 😱
It will be tight but if it seems like the plane ✈️ is cruising smoothly and whoever is with feels ok 👌🏼 helping you, you should go yo the bathroom 🚽!
People in general are kind 😁 and want to help. There may be those with a need for more education and sensitivity when interracting with a personwith decreased mobility, but, bear in mind, they might have more to learn (and no one to teach them).
Cohabitation is going to be fun 👏🏽 Upon my initial read through the synopsis, sounds fun 👍🏽 but not entirely new. Part of the fun in participating in book clubs is the discussion 😁
Chapter 5
Check in at the beginning of Chapter 6 instead 😂 I feel for Olivia 🥲 She lost her husband and gaurdianship for her son was given to a stranger. The annimosity between Jack and Olivia is believable, intense, and fun 😂 Both Olivia and Jack find each other attractive, so Im just waiting for the moment they get together 😍 Looking forward to more Henry-Jack interactions 👏🏽 This seems promising! Love widow romances with a child 😍😍😍
Chapter 10
The reason I love widow romances is that when a bond forms between the interest and the kid 😍 That’s fun to read! 😂 I’m glad Olivia is starting to see it too!
Chapter 14
Understand Olivia’s opinion about henry getting a dog 🐶 They are cute 😍 but take work.
First kiss 😘 finally happens 😂 Caregiving scenes with a twist 👏🏽 Olivia 😍 more after seeing Jack with Henry.
Like that, me being ahead is no longer true 😂🤦🏼♀️
Chapter 18
Olivia grows more and more attracted to Jack 😏 Zolivia not in mourning clothes was a sign Olivia was becoming more and more ready 😂 Other stuff happened but this was the most prevalent. Excited for tomorrow’s chapters 👏🏽 I think we’ll start to get answers to our many questions
Kisses become more common between Jack & Olivia (did I miss it until now?)
Jack with Henry still ♥️ then we find out how he is with orphans?! ♥️♥️♥️ Got to admire I enjoy seeing that (and so does Olivia 😏)
Chapter 19 + epilogue
Olivia, Jack, and Henry are their own family ❤️ and it’s beginning to feel that way (Olivia sees it! 👏🏽) With her concern with appearrances, she’s the one to convince 🤔 i feel Olivia’s approval and consent is important to the story, but Jack drives the story. Sound right?!
Jack’s parentage reveal… I still don’t know 🤷🏽♀️ about it 🤔 Like I didn’t see it coming, and was dark like another whole book can explore that but would I read that? 🤷🏽♀️
The wedding scene was quick and didn’t feel too important (but I loved loved it 😁)
Epilogue
Epilogue was all Jack and was satisfying, but shouldn’t Olivia be in it too? In that sense, deviated from the norm 🤷🏽♀️ I dig that usually. I have no qualms so I’m okay with it.
So I’ve been excited for a while to read more into this series! So Love In The Night is a great reason to proceed! Initially planned to coincide this book for Love In The Night and the Paranormal Romance Readathon but the dates don’t coincide 🤷🏽♀️ so I made Don’t Hex And Drive for Love In The Night! In typical fassion, putting my TBRs together was too easy 🤦🏼♀️😂🤣 But I’ll adjust and adapt. Story of my life…
Chapter 6
Love this 👆🏽This was why I wanted to start my blog! 👏🏽
Fascination 🤔 is a good starting point for any relationship! Through interesting events, Isadora & Devraj are repeatedly at the same place at the same time 😂 Really lets them marinate in their love-hate dynamic!
Chapter 17
In this section, Isadora and Devraj really develop (and get intimate) Didn’t expect the case of the missing girls to progress this much, this quickly 😮 the evolution of Isadora & Devraj’s relationship is my favorite part 😍 When they start to see something new 😍 about each other, that’s a good 👍🏽 sign! I look forward to further development for the couple and in terms of the missing girls. I know I can trust Juliette Cross to do that!
Chapter 28
This is an unincorporated yet expected twist in their relationship dynamic 🤔 I’ll go most recent scenes back 🤔 The “What will hapen to us” conversation is unexpectedly happening with Devraj being proactive and answering questions before it’s asked. That should count for something! Even though that something is one Isadora fears. 🥲 Sometimes answers to questions are scary 😱 But sometimes, seeing something (or someone 😏) you love slipping away is just what one needs to snap to attention.
End of book 📖
Notw: Depending when I bpog, my memory may be hazy 💭 Keep that in mind 🤯 😉
I’ll try to blog more (and better) closer to reading each scene! Isadora learning to drive 👏🏽
The blood trafficking ring was resolved quickly. Read fast 👍🏽 and resolved quickly.
2 days after 🤔 Isadora out of it. Catch Isadora up on what happened in a conversation with Tia. 🤔
Love how there are dual narrators (make-female)! Make it easter to keep track!
More of a scavenger hunt than bingo board, but same 💡😂
Friday
2 books 📚 overlap with Bang In The Night! So I’ll time it appropriately 😉 My first book 📖 for this readathon will be Don’t Hex And Drive by Juliette Cross, that should meet Fated mate ✅ Alpha male ✅ and Eat her out ✅
Not too far into it yet but cute meet cute 👍🏽 Wolf Gone Wild teased teased Jules and Ruben (which I’m all for!) but UNTIL then I’ll settle for a taste 👅😋 This may be a way to get there!
My feelings. This quote just hit me.Jules is surprising 😮
Still calendaring 📅 releases, so it should be out as early as Tuesday 🤗
Note: Some text, pictures, and videos may not be in my reading blog or book review
Saturday
Note: See my Love In The Night and Bang In The Night, posts for my Reading Blog and Book Review at https://listenwirhprecious.com/blog-posts/ for more information for Don’t Hex And Drive and Witches Get Stitches!
Eager to jump into the next book! Because of format not able to get it in here 🤦🏼♀️😂
Reading not as prioritized today #priorities Trying to keep a healthy balance 👍🏽
Sunday
Had a birthday 🥳 party today, so I read a little Witches Get Stitches. Will read more after.
Monday
Reading with my eyes 👀 takes longer than my ears 👂 👂 So I just need to note that!
Not sure I’ll finish Witches Get Stitches, but I’m enjoying it! Don’t think I’ll finish before this ends… Only got as far at 2 check-ins. The thing eith reading with my 👁, they tear up 🥲🤷🏽♀️ if its tired 🥱 but it does make it hard
Only got 7 chapters in… I hot tired 🥱😂 ebooks are definitely slower than audiobooks 😂
