🎃 Halloween, American style

I missed the celebration of Halloween for the past 8 years as I was living in Florence, Italy. I’m currently in Denver and enjoying the way Americans celebrate the holiday!

This home in my neighborhood decorates in a unique way.

And my favorite!:

The Book of Goose

Just finished reading this intriguing new novel. I recommend it. A book about childhood, childhood friendship, feeling different, wanting more, learning to find your own avenue. The author has a fresh expression that I found really enjoyable.
