A library book. It needs to be back by 7 April as there are 45 people behind me on the reservation list, so I better get a move on! I do enjoy Jojo Moyes‘ books.

pickOhhh, I liked this. There‘s nothing really big or exciting in this story of what defines family after death and divorces, but there are some really sweet moments. I think for most of us life is really about those sweet moments. So different from my previously reviewed book which was also devoid of the big moments 🤣
Isn‘t it great 👍 when you pick up a brand new spreyed edge copy in your local charity bookshop 🤩#littlethings
so-soHoly shit I thought this book was never gonna end. It just went on and on and then on some more. It could easily lose 150-175 pages.
On the other hand, I liked the characters and even the story when it found its way out of the jungle of extraneous nonsense.

I had fun meeting JoJo Moyes last night at Quail Ridge Books. She was so funny! This was one of the only stops on her US book tour. I also like the sign in the mantle behind us.

Preorders arrived just as it started dumping snow. I'll be curled up on the couch enjoying a perfect Saturday 😁
pickRube is traveling cross country to see his father who left him at a young age and who hasn‘t been in contact with him since. On his way he is picking up his siblings, all of which have been abandoned by their father, a man who is totally reinventing himself whenever he leaves. Kevin Wilson has once again written a book full of unique characters and I absolutely loved it.
Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the advance copy. Out May 13
so-so3 ⭐ I don‘t like that the illustrator does not get recognition on the cover. This book is too easy of a book for the illustrator not to get name recognition on the cover. You have various animals trying to get their child to say data and the animals respond with the sound you expect them to. That is it. The concept is cute, but by no means is this genius. The real credit in this book is the illustrator who makes this book worth reading.
