pickA hilarious book about a woman going through menopause. It‘s not just 300 pages of complaining — it‘s sharp, funny, and relatable. I really enjoyed it, even though I‘m not quite at that stage yet. My kids are still young, but it gave me plenty of laughs and things to think about for the future. Book #40 in 2025

This took me awhile to read, for some reason my mind just kept wandering, even though it was a good read
pickI don't read poetry often. But something about this called to me and so I picked it up. It's emotionally harder to read than I expected. But good. #40-2024
pickWhat a fun story! I love everything about Nora - her quirks, witty quips, her fun style and her independence. I liked how vulnerable Derek allowed himself to be. I really loved that there wasn‘t some big, stupid fight that forced them to realize their love for each other. I hate when rom-com books invent a silly fight, forcing lovebirds to reckoning. Book #40 in 2024
pickFree translation: Dark is the Night
This story is two time line: in the present 2020, Sandra, a famous singer in a band, wants to take sometime for herself after her divorce with Olivia. Her manger found her a place in the peninsule coast. She goes by incognito, to this hotel called Hotel Paris. There, Sandra feels strange sensations, eerie atmosphere and hears a song. She decides to follow the song, to see where it comes from⬇️
pickI started this book just before I took a new position with a new company, so it was really just more of a validation that I had done things the right way than any kind of instruction manual for me. It was still interesting. And validating. #40-2023
So Faith‘s new man, Aiden, just mentioned that he never did cocaine because of what happened to Regina Morrow in Sweet Valley High, which is the SAME reason I‘ve never done the devil‘s dandruff! Also, I was on the Reading Team in high school, not really the cocaine crowd. I‘ve never even had the opportunity to say no, but I would have! RIP Regina!
