pickNot an easy read. I'd not seen the experience of social interaction from an autistic woman's point of view so recognisably depicted: oh, the relief!... until it started to feel all exposing and nasty.
I couldn't bear how casually cruel almost everyone was to Sunday.
I was intrigued by her fluency in sign language.
It did get rather repetitive (a saggy middle caused by all those horrendous dinners?)
I thought the ending hit the right note.
It's getting so close to due date I'm freaked out. It feels like it's really zipped by and at the same time is crawling at a snails pace. I just can't wait to meet Lil Miss Marialynn Esperanza Viera-Garrison 🩷👶🇵🇷
so-soSilly, light, fluffy. Forty-something MC‘s son, Max (my kindergartener‘s name!) is entering kindergarten. She becomes class mom and tells it like it is. There‘s a bunch of emails to fellow class parents, the teacher and school personnel. Her messages are snarky and I was entertained but this isn‘t my type of read. I listened to it within a day…I was in the mood for something easy peasy, nothing that required much effort. Meh 🤷♀️
Since so many of us are trying to cope with extreme heat, I thought I‘d share this ridiculously easy but very yummy summer treat!

Many thanks to @TheBookHippie for sharing the recipe for this shockingly delicious breakfast treat! Croissants, cream cheese, berries - warm and wonderful. My 4-year-old grandson liked "the hotness" ? and ate 2 big servings. ?
pick#StorySettings: There is a #Flowershop scene in this charming picturebook with young Edie in fluorescent pink. It is such a simple story, but told so effectively, and with such vivid art that renders the setting so alive with such vibrant colours: definitely a favourite of mine. Plus, I will read anything Beatrice Alemagna creates. My full review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-bYV
I‘m a fan of the Graham Norton show and now I‘m a fan of his books.
