I'm Glad My Mom Died | Jennette McCurdy
post image
Pickpick

Any fans of iCarly or Sam&Cat .. great memoir of Jennette! I promise you will not like her mom and you will not like Nickelodeon! Being famous isn‘t all it‘s cracked up to be!! It must not have been easy to write her life story .. I have a new found respect for her decision to step away from acting!! Highly Recommend!! #mentalhealthmonth #JennetteMcCurdy #advocateforyouth

Finished my first John Grisham book last night! Gifted to me by my middle child ( It was very good .. childhood buddies .. good vs evil! Totally recommend!

marleed I‘m working my way through the entire JG Grisham canon. I could have come close to finishing had I read book a month in 2023, but I already blew that goal so maybe by the end of 2024! Oh and all but one gifted JG are thrifted - I have all but this one. Although I read a library copy I have to wait for my own thrifted copy because this is how I entertain myself! 2y

This author sure knows how to grab your attention and hold on tight! Same author who wrote the book “Room”. This book takes place during 1918s influenza pandemic in Dublin .. at a maternity ward. So good .. but so heartbreaking 🥺🥰 .. highly recommend!!!

The third instalment from the author Heather Morris .. who wrote The Tattooist of Auschwitz!! This was by far my favourite of the three books (mostly for the somewhat happy ending). I wanted to eat this up in a day but at the same time I enjoyed taking my time .. such an emotional book!

“Filicide: is the deliberate act of a parent killing their own child.” 💔💔 This book is full tragedy, heartbreak but also hope! A call for change .. better laws, a stronger system that puts the children first!

I‘ve been on a reading slump .. well maybe not a complete slump .. I have 2 ADHD books half done and an audiobook on the go as well! This book was mind altering .. in a good way. Diversity should really mean what it says with actions. Great perspective book .. highly recommend!!

Another one down the hatch! Such a great book! Sometimes what you see on the movie screen doesn‘t depict the grit and suffering a person has really been through! Maybe time for a Demi Moore movie marathon!!

So I was recommended this book by a colleague.. and without really reading the summary, asked for it for Xmas. I assumed it was historical fiction .. turns out it‘s horror/fantasy fiction .. but man was it great! Want to read a book that really makes you wonder .. this is the book. No idea too “out there” that‘s for sure!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Another book down the hatch!! I‘m on a roll people 😂! Now this was not a big book at all but one by one of my absolute favourite authors .. this is the 5th book I‘ve read by him!! (Same author as “A man called Ove” and “Beartown”). It‘s a funny “dads” perspective talking to his baby boy! Loved it .. and seemed fitting for this year 🥰 of course had to include Pepper since she pestered me through the whole reading of this book 🤪😂🍷

What a great story!! The secrets people will keep when their backs are against the wall!! I will be honest I didn‘t think I would like this book, but I was wrong!! Highly recommend!! 🥰📚🔥 Now to watch the tv series .. so excited!!!

MynameisSnow Reese plays a great Elena, and Kerry plays a fantastic Mia. Best feeling ever to read and then watch it all play out ( even though it never Holmes a candle to a book) Excited for you. 4y
