Spoiled Brats
Spoiled Brats | Simon Rich
5 posts | 13 read | 3 to read
Having skewered the problems of falling in and out of love in The Last Girlfriend on Earth, Simon Rich's next book is another subject we can all relate to: parents and their kids. From the perils of raising an actual monster in Manhattan - it's pretty hard to find teachers who really understand the talents of a five-year-old with horns and a taste for blood - to Sell Out, the story of Simon's ancestor, returned to life decades after an industrial accident involving pickling brine, these stories are inventive, witty and sometimes a bit too much like real life.

I decided to spoil myself for my first Christmas as a divorced woman. I don't have to buy presents for a husband so I bought myself a new Kindle Oasis with 32 GB unnecessary memory and these ebooks happened to be on sale. My old paperwhite has punctures in it so it was time for a new one. I am totally justifying this splurge.😄

TrishB No justification needed! You go 👍🏻 4y
Gissy Good for you! A divorce can be something difficult for some persons but in my case was a celebration, the happiest day in the world! Pamper yourself and see this step as a new beginning full of new opportunities. I hope you are ok. 4y

My phone had been acting up, dialing or trying to connect to Bluetooth while I was on the phone, and often my husband couldn't hear me talk. He decided it was time for a new one. Guess who has a Samsung S8! I rather like it.

Next selection of short stories.... Thank god for working in a library so I can bring short stories back into circulation as they might be my favourite type of story telling.... So much power in so few words.

Maybe not as funny as some of his books but still that unique perspective.
