Welcome to Mostly Sunny where the vibes are (mostly) high, the yaps are flowing, and we embrace fun. Think of this newsletter as a cozy chat with a good friend over a steaming mug of coffee. Together, we’ll talk books, life’s little quirks, the delight of watching Jonathan Bailey on a press tour, writing, casual style tips, and whatever else sparks inspiration.

But first… Hi! I’m MacKenzie.
I’m a Chicagoan who loves books, pickles, summer, a perfectly ripe peach, casual clothing, cozy sweaters, yoga, and, of course, a good yap.
You might know me as @bennetandthebookworm on Instagram, which means you most definitely know, Bennet, my four-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog (the true star of the show).
I’ve been an avid reader my entire life (with a few hiatuses throughout when reading ‘wasn’t’ cool). For the past two and a half years, I’ve shared my bookish passions on Instagram, and now I’m expanding into more lifestyle content with this newsletter.
Which leads me to…
What can you expect from Mostly Sunny?
On the Sunny Side. A weekly newsletter that feels like a coffee chat between friends—filled with recommendations and musings to add brightness to your Sunday.
The Weekly Yap. A bimonthly post where I—you guessed it—yap about personal style, dish about my favorite books, and everything I’ve been fixating on too.
A sampling of newsletters you can expect from me.
Grab your favorite mug, settle in, and let’s dive into the long version.
I’d love to see you as part of the Mostly Sunny fam and yap with you soon.
X, MacKenzie
