Welcome to Litsy!

THE BEATLES
Help, I need somebody
Help, not just anybody
Help, you know I need someone, help
When I was younger, so much younger than today
I never needed anybody's help in any way
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self assured
Now I find I've changed my mind and opened up the doors
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round

I'm really enjoying this! There's just something so fun about seeing into other people's problems in an advice column and getting the advice giver's perspective is fascinating.

This book is the perfect blend of memoir and samplings from Goldstein‘s advice column.

On sale.

This was a totally charming and self aware memoir. Meredith has a lot of common sense and empathy and gives excellent advice to her letter writers. These were interweaved with her own family background and mother's illness. Now I want a cotton candy machine.

Really fun. I‘d probably give it something like 3 1/2 stars out of 5. I need the author to curate the whole internet for me and pick out only the great comments. Goldstein talks about her own life and struggles as well as sharing from her “Love Letters” advice column. #relationships #selfhelp

Little Fires Everywhere was weirding me out a little and I‘m sleep-deprived, so I took a break to read this compilation of letters to an advice columnist in Boston, complete with her answers and select comments. #relationships #selfhelp

These are the three from Grand Central Publishing.

See?!?! I need A LOT of quiet reading time!
