As we get closer to the summer, we need one of those escapist reads that takes us away on a bit of a saga. We get introduced to the Stockton family a well-connected old-money family. We meet Darley the eldest daughter who traded her comforts, followed her heart, and exchanged her inheritance for motherhood. We also meet Sasha who is a middle-class New England girl who marries into the Brooklyn Heights family. Obviously, she is an outsider. Then, there's Georgiana who is the baby of the family and has fallen madly in love with someone that she can't have. Now, she decides what kind of a person does she want to be ultimately.

Pineapple Street is an indulgent read that connects us to the one-percenters and shares the lives of these characters as they navigate their lives and learn what it is in life that they really want to be involved in.

Another cuisine that's a long-time favorite is Korean! We love the spices, sauces, and more. In Learning Korean: Recipes for Home Cooking, we focus on the key elements of this cuisine: kimchi and white rice, and how it unlocks flavors as well as vegetable-centric cooking which allows for healthy eating. This cookbook presents new flavors, techniques, and ways to enjoy this food by Chef Peter Serpico.

This cookbook shares his favorite dishes that he has made over the years as well as those that he grew up eating. With over 100 recipes, and his thoughts on philosophically eating, and his connection to food, it's an immersive experience.

We're looking forward to making Spicy Pork Rib Stew, classic noodle and rice cake dishes as well as Korea-fied roast chicken and a sweet-and-spicy grilled cauliflower. In addition, to beautiful images, you will learn various techniques, you'll learn about condiments to elevate your desired dish, desserts, drinks and tricks and tips to create your healthy meals each week.

BEHIND HER EYES

Netflix Original Series

Netflix

Last holiday, we all heard how there will be at least 1 new movie or series brought to Netflix. Since we're all navigating being at home and staying entertained, we suggest this very bingeable show that is based on the book of the same name.

Behind Her Eyes is a psychological thriller that takes dreaming, love triangles and the sins of the past to new levels. We're introduced to 3 main characters whose lives are intertwined in a way that even they don't completely understand. This limited series is filled with twists and turns and is definitely worth paying attention to so that you don't miss the clues.

FLACK

Amazon

We all have a celebrity that we enjoy catching up with as we scroll through our social feeds. It's interesting to see what they're up to. FLACK looks at the world of celebrity through the lens of PR and specifically, Crisis Management. We follow Robyn, an American who works at a British firm who ensure that their clients navigate their messy lives. In each episode of the first season, we seethe firm spring into action at each disaster that comes their way.

In addition to watching how they're able to keep their clients from completely spinning out of control, we see that their lives are just as messy and complicated as the ones that they are trying to take care of.

The balancing act of celebrities misbehaving and juggling their own lives make this an easy sea-son to watch while we wait for the 2nd season to come to the platform later this year.
