I really liked this one.
Trying to work out what is and isn‘t real, and a slightly open ending meaning not everything is quite revealed.

Meg starts seeing a psychiatrist after her mother‘s death, and is put onto an experimental drug. She is being monitored due to some extreme side effects in a former patient.
But when she makes a new friend and begins to make changes to her lifestyle, her boyfriend worries the changes are too fast.

BehindthePages I enjoyed how even at the end I was left wondering what was real. 4y

Having a break from Les Mis to attempt to finish this one this morning :) My now very big puppy (he is one on Sunday!) is joining me.

He has some allergies, we don‘t know what to, so he is very itchy and feeling sorry for himself. But if I don‘t move now he will sleep the morning away 🥰

Velvetfur Aaww he's so gorgeous and silky smooth! Sorry to hear of his allergies though, poor pup 🙁 4y
Soubhiville My allergy girl takes Apoquel and it works wonders for her. Also weekly hypoallergenic baths. (Apoquel is a prescription med through the vet.) 4y
Crazeedi It could be the food he eats too! We had to switch our Labs food. Your puppy is beautiful 🐶❤ 4y

Bookworm54 @Soubhiville that was suggested last time, but with the lockdown they aren‘t seeing them unless it is an emergency, so he had a short course of steroids instead. Worked briefly but only while taking them. @Crazeedi because of his age they think it‘s environmental rather than food. I have a feeling it might be pollen related as he was fine over winter, but started up once spring hit! 4y
Soubhiville I hope after things start to reopen you can get him some relief. Have you tried Benedryl? You should be able to get a dosage from your vet over the phone. Also if they suggested Apoquel at your last appointment they may be willing to give you a prescription to try without seeing him again under the circumstances. Best of luck for both of you! I know how awful it is when they are uncomfortable. ❤️🐕 4y
TheSpineView Poor baby! Hope you find him some relief soon!❤🐾 4y
Crazeedi @Bookworm54 hope he feels better soon!! 4y
Tamra We had a lab with many allergies - had him tested and it was helpful to know what to avoid. It got better over the years, but an antihistamine was helpful. I wish you both the best and less itches! 4y

Finally got some time to start this one tonight.
I am working nights tomorrow and Tuesday, so while I try to stay awake it‘s a good time to do some reading!

I am about half way through, and it is very interesting so far. I think that Meg‘s new friend might be a hallucination, or since I read a lot of paranormal stuff, perhaps fae? But what is intriguing is that we don‘t know what is and isn‘t real in this book. Excited to see how this progresses!

I don't know why, but I can order subterranean press editions at my local bookstore in GERMANY.
Nice 😁
