If y’all don’t know by now, Molly McAdams is one of my favorite authors, back in March she announced that she was going to do a reader retreat at the Plantation House Boutique Inn, located in Austin, TX. If you’ve followed her for a long time, you’ll know this was the house where her and her husband were married. Since then, it’s become the boutique bed and breakfast, which is also the inspiration behind Blossom Bed and Breakfast in her Brewed series. I was one of the lucky ones able to go to this retreat and I do not regret a single second of it, even if I did stay up for over 24 hours twice, due to traveling. If ever given the chance to visit the Plantation House Boutique Inn, I highly recommend it. ‘The Inn Keepers’ also known as Norris and Luanna Cole are two of the sweetest people I’ve ever met. Luanna, also known as Luey, cooks up a delicious breakfast every morning and will always meet everyone’s dietary needs, and if you’re a coffee drinker, there are Nespresso machines on each floor. One located in the hallway on the second floor, and one located in the loft room, as well as three regular drip coffee makers located in the kitchen and a separate hot water heater for tea drinkers. There are 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, a stunning kitchen, equally stunning front porch and back yard with a nice sized in ground pool, fire pit, and a covered patio to enjoy your morning coffee. The parlor, where there is a beautiful dining table and living room are also beautiful places to spend time. Don’t worry about not finding somewhere to sit, there are multiple chairs and couches. Although this wasn’t a signing like the other ones on this page, I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to gush about this house, click on the link above to see about availability or contact the owners.
Both flights were beyond early, but I was still ecstatic
I love taking pictures from the sky like this!
Does anyone else have a mom that’s fluent in sarcasm?

These are the most comfortable swings I’ve ever sat on, is there an add to cart option?

When your house, and yourself are used in a series, naturally you represent!

A nice spot for your morning coffee
Morning coffee time!
Our swag bag included one of these cups, it’ll definitely be a favorite of mine
Look at these beautiful cookies someone had made!
Molly had these super cute swag bags made up for us.
If y’all know me, you know how much I love Kieran. These koozies made by Kenzie-Cole had everyone’s favorite Molly character, I’m just a smart ass
The swag bag, including the sign from Kenzie-Cole, not pictured is the ‘Monster Retreat’ bag

Group pictures are hard to get, but we managed a good one!

Selfie time!
This was my mom’s first time ever meeting Molly, or any author.
The first picture we ever got together was like this, so now it’s just how we pose, and I love it.
My last view of the house, all lit up at night!
The driveway is a circular one, made easy to turn around and this is in the center!

Hey all, welcome to my blog! I'm Meagan and I live in Central NY, I've been reading since I was 14 years old and it all started with James Patterson's 'Sam's Letters to Jennifer'. I took the book with me every where I thought I might have a second to read. It's been my go to book as well and I can't imagine what I would do if I never read that. When I'm not reading, which is almost never, you can find me watching my favorite shows which include Bones, Vampire Diaries, Grey's Anatomy, Castle, The Originals, Once Upon A Time, NCIS, The O.C. and Hawaii Five-O!
When ever I start a book, I'm almost always instantly hooked, I will stay up all night reading if I can't put it down just so I know the happy ending.
My favorite authors include Julie Prestsater, R.S. Grey, Leigh Talbert Moore, Jenn Sterling, P.C. and Kristen Cast, Richelle Mead, Lauren Kate, Gillian Flynn, Kandi Steiner, Brittainy C. Cherry, Staci Hart, Molly McAdams and James Patterson.
I always love learning about new authors and talking books, if you'd like to get in touch, feel free to send me a DM on either instagram or facebook.
