The premise is kinda of a clique- the main character Lillie finds herself an unexpected empty nester. But she copes in some pretty hilarious and petty ways. It was an enjoyable vacation type read

Well, I tried. I had a really hard time relating to the relentless onslaught of the narrative. I felt like I was a therapist, and I was simply reading a transcript of sessions of a woman in an unhappy marriage. As a child of divorced parents, it did make me think a bit, but mostly the book just tired me out. I needed more shape and direction. #TOB2025
“I began to understand what a story is. It‘s a manipulation. It‘s a way of containing unmanageable chaos.” Finally something resonates in this book. #TOB2025
It‘s been 2yrs since Ali‘s mom has passed away. It‘s been 1yr since Pete, the father of her 3 kids, has asked for a divorce. This summer, Ethan will enter her orbit and she‘ll wake up from the life fog she‘s been lost in. This was a little snoozy to me but ask me if I didn‘t read it in a day. Also, it feels pretty light until some deep truths about parenting come up. And of course I cried tears of happiness in the end so it‘s a pick! 👇🏼
Read this to give my brain a break from comps reading & it delivered beautifully. Not very spicy but vulnerable, reflective, & heartfelt. Perfect for breaking up the weight of all the theory & philosophy I have to read this week. Exam questions arrive Monday morning! I hope I have enough time to write a few sentences in an email to each of my advisors in between speed reading what‘s left on my list 😅😬😰😭🫥 this summer has been so transformative

I wanted to share this group text that I‘m in with my mom, my brother and my sister in law because I thought it was funny. It was about this picture that I took with my brother and sister in law but none of us remember where the picture was taken. Lol.
