Finished this a while back & forgot to post about it. I read Knott‘s first book and loved it. This one took me quite some time to engage with but by the second half I was locked in. Knott lost her matriarchs - her mother and grandmother - within a short period of time and she writes of her unexpressed grief and displacement. This was a soft pick.
Thanks to @Riveted_Reader_Melissa and #SheSaid for the opportunity to read this.
This light memoir captures Hart‘s experience in NYC and at Tiffany during the summer of 1945. Filled with humor and sentiment, Hart shares hilarious (and potentially embarrassing) episodes as well as her hopes and dreams and college worries. Just the right book to read, with its fluffiness and nostalgic tone. #SundayBuddyRead
