My commute & clean the basement audiobook last week. I found myself talking to the characters & telling them to do or not do this thing or that. It's hard not to compare it to A Man Called Ove, but I loved this book as a separate entity. I took care of #LitsyBingo #MeantToReadIn2017 and #ReadHarderChallenge2018 #FemaleProtagonistOver60 with this book!

Fangirl: A Novel | Rainbow Rowell

This was a fun one! YA contemporary is hit or miss for me, so I am very selective about picking up a book from this genre.

#UnpopularOpinion : I thought Fangirl was better than Eleanor and Park. 😃 However, I am learning that Rowell is a solid writer that consistently creates excellent characters.

While I don‘t read fanfiction, it didn‘t detract from my enjoyment, and I definitely have my favorite fandoms. A few are hanging out in this pic. 😃

alisiakae This was my choice for #unconventionalromance for #booked2018, and kinda fits the prompt, but not as much as I thought it would. Also #LetterF #LitsyAtoZ and #pop18 #MeantToReadIn2017 7y
SkeletonKey I was surprised that I also loved his book. Need to read Eleanor & Park eventually! 7y

So normally I wouldn't post this kind of book, but it fulfills some challenges so I have to. After eating as he recommends for a few days, I already feel so much better. I realized that my diet has totally changed after I began to rely on convenience foods while I recovered from two surgeries this year, but it's time to feel good again.

Also I like that it blends exactly with my counter.

tif I'm glad you're feeling better! Recovering from surgery can be so hard and there's so much "convenience" food nowadays that it's so easy to eat crap. 7y
ferskner @tif Thanks! It's so true. I decided not to beat myself up about it because I literally couldn't pick up a pan to cook. Doctor's orders! It serves me for a time but now it's time to move on. 7y
SusanInTiburon @ferskner I love the friendly way you talk to yourself! What a great outlook. 7y
