A soft pick. The cheerfulness and pluckiness of the MC feels a little overdone, but beneath the frothiness of the book‘s overall tone, there is an interesting look at the plight of the women who took up work in factories while the menfolk were at war, particularly the lack of nursery provision for working mothers.

Didn‘t want to stop listening to this one! A hell of a twist at the end too!

5+ stars! Seven authors each write in sequence from the viewpoints of different people about Rome‘s occupation of Britain, and the attempt of a queen of one of the tribes to force them out. Queen Boudica did exist; her story was told by the Roman historians. But this book follows other characters (one per author): another queen, a slave (Boudica‘s husband‘s illegitimate daughter), a Roman tribune, a Druid, a son of an important character, ⬇️

This book is astounding, written by 7–SEVEN-authors, about Queen Boudica‘s rebellion against Rome in Britain. Review to come. But in the Author‘s Notes, I thought it amazing that one of the authors gives so much credit to our #authoramonth Kate Quinn! I‘m so glad I read this book; it‘s a keeper (which means I‘ll have to buy a copy). I wouldn‘t have read it but for #authoramonth but I also needed it for #letterY for #litsyatoz. It‘s extraordinary.

Getting kitty biscuits while listening to the tagged book, which is fantastic. #authoramonth @Soubhiville #litsyatoz #LetterY

Here‘s the map showing the Roman names of places in Great Britain. #authoramonth #litsyatoz #letterY @Soubhiville

This will be my first book for #authoramonth (Kate Quinn wrote Part 6) and #litsyatoz #letterY. @Soubhiville

Matthew Prince creating events in his head in times of stress reminded me so much of Jenna Hunterson from Waitress creating a new pie in her mind. 🥹 Was really sad that there wasn‘t a recipe in the book for the chai cookies with eggnog icing. I want to make them so bad. I really loved the focus on mental health in this one around anxiety. And Matthew‘s mom can get stuffed. ⬇️

Sammy tries to explain Santa to a not-so-bright turkey. This is a long (relatively speaking) picture book with very simple words on each page. Probably good for a 2-3 year old
