#ItTakesAllKinds #Roadtrip I think it said that they took these signs down in 1963 ,but at its height ,there were 7000 sets in 43 states. Fun car game to look for these on your travels back in the day.Found this little gem ,at the big book sale I went to a few weeks ago . Published in 1965. So six signs spread out a ways , you get a poem!

pickFirst,I‘d like to thank Goodreads for picking me as a winner to receive a copy of this book.Second-I‘ve decided to try really hard to never read the book reviews before I read a book.The reviews on this book almost had me convinced not to read it.I‘m so glad that I took a chance,because I ended up really enjoying it.It‘s a story about growing and leaning.Its about hitting rock bottom and bouncing back.This author did a great job on her first novel
Because books, the good ones, the ones you hold on to and come back to, they never disappoint. They're the best kind of escape because, instead of leading you away from your-self, they end up circling you back to yourself, nice and easy, helping you see things not just as they are, but as you are too.

I immediately thought of Lillian!
As of 20 minutes ago I am now officially in my 40s! My reading & Litsying so far this summer has been much less than usual. There has been a lot going on, including prep for a huge house party we had on Saturday to celebrate. But things will be quite big down now and I‘m looking forward to sinking back into my reading and checking in here. Im currently reading The Guncle and really enjoying it.
so-soThis was OK, but it was first published in 2009 and parts of it therefore feel dated.

Love Lillian Boxfish as a character and shows great positivity and belief throughout the book.

pickI absolutely love the character, Lillian Boxfish! What a perfectly quaint little old lady she is! For this reason, I also really liked this book. Lillian was so bold, energetic and unapologetic! She had a great philosophy on life that really got me thinking. I hope I age to be just like her in my golden years. I recommend this book.
