@bookquoth “...why does everything have to have a point? Why does it all have to be part of a plan? Sometimes it’s best to let things just grow naturally, like wildflowers.” 📗 . . I adored this book! It was so heartwarming and endearing! I’m surprised I haven’t seen this on #bookstagram more often—or maybe I just missed it—because it deserves all the praise! 📗 . . This is about The Authenticy Project: a notebook left in a local cafe in England—it’s first entry by a lonely older man, who strives to finally tell the truth about his life. It gets picked up by the café owner, who also makes an entry. The notebook travels around and thus unfolds the lives of six strangers who find unexpected friendship. I love these types of stories, where people become unlikely friends because of some sort of event in their lives and are forever changed by it. All the love for this book. I loved the writing, too. Great characters. I want more clare_pooley, please! 📗 . . Have you read this? 📗

@curatedlycozy ⭐️ SUNDAY REVIEW ⭐️ Happy Sunday! ✨ It’s snowing here today again! 🥶 So, it definitely is a day to stay in and read! Today, I am sharing my weekly review of The Authenticity Project by Clare Pooley. Going into the Authenticity Project, I knew nothing about it. It was a book I picked up by looking at the interesting cover art and thinking, this looks cool. Once I picked up and started it, I was completely hooked. You immediately fall in love with Julian and his green journal that he leaves in Monica’s cafe. The journal brings together five strangers and completely changes their lives. The first half you go into this thinking one thing but as you read it, the character development grows and makes you think wow. 
Overall - I absolutely loved this book, it was charming & heartwarming. It is most definitely worth a read. I loved how flawed the characters all were. That is what makes this book so great. I highly recommend this book. It is completely worth the read! 👏 Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #weeklyreview #bookreviewsofinstagram #bookreview #blogger #bookblogger #cozy #cozyhome #homedecor #books #booksbooksbooks #blog #lifestyleblogger #catsofinstagram #theauthenticityproject #clarepooley #readersofinstagram #readersofig #snow #sunday #sundayreview
