A good, sink-into, partially estranged family story. I really liked the characters, the pacing, the writing. I will definitely be reading more this author.

TheBookgeekFrau @TheBookHippie So far, no snow in the forecast here. But then again, the forecast is a mere suggestion 😵‍💫😂 1mo

TheBookgeekFrau @bookandbedandtea I learned that year 1!! Also, windbreaker/rain gear always in the car along with a hat, scarf, and gloves. I used to joke that every outing was like packing for an overnight stay; now it's just normal 😁 1mo

A focused memoir written by an 18-year-old woman who grew up with an incarcerated parent. Most of the story takes place once he‘s been released. I wished for a little more fleshing out of the story around the specific topic of her dad teaching her to code and building Photo Patch, but it is a memoir, so it‘s technically not necessary. I‘ve honestly never thought about this subject before, so it was eye-opening in a lot of ways.

The Hypocrite | Jo Hamya

Mehso-so

This is my second book by Hamya, and I have the same complaint. She writes about emotional subject matter in a way that comes across as completely devoid of emotion to me. It‘s jarring in a bad way.

An author writes vulgar books and sleeps around. He doesn‘t like it very much when his daughter invites him to as play she‘s written about this and its affect on her life.
