pickThis review is for “Book Club Kit: Watch Over Me by Nina LaCour.
I found this book to be very useful for this month dedicated to author Nina LaCour.
It includes interviews, discussion questions, and even cute bookmarks. 😃🙌 I think this one is a must read if you‘re ever reading this book.

I‘ve been away from Litsy for two years and could not believe it had been so long when I just logged in and checked my last post. Reading fell by the wayside as I went through what I suppose is semi-retirement due to health stuff. I have no idea what I‘ve filled my time with, but it hasn‘t been productive in any meaningful way.

IFS is all about finding the parts of you that are hurt from previous experiences and the protector parts that defend them. It works to calm the protectors and soothe the hurt parts to facilitate better communication with your partner.
Recommended by my therapist, I think it was worth a read.

As an LGBTQIA+ woman with queer, trans, and nonbinary family and friends, Muslim family, family at risk of pregnancy complications, and other at risk friends and family, as a person invested in education and literacy, as a person who wants marginalized communities to be safe and thrive... And so many other factors, it's been high emotions for the last few days. Mostly fear, sorrow, and anger. But also determination to keep making (...)
pickHappy Friday! Finished the last 1:10:00 of the tagged book to kick off #36by36. I‘m glad I read this rec. I related to it so much. If you‘re a fellow chronic overthinker, this book will make you feel less crazy.
Going to try to even out my reading by format Print/Kindle/Audio, but we will see how it goes, as I‘m a mood reader through and through 😅 #10BeforeTheEnd #NFN #ReadAway2024
