Welcome, y’all!
Welcome to getting old. It sucks.
Sunday Book Club: Skippy Dies
This was arguably the best book I read this summer. Paul Murray does such a fabulous job of getting into a 14-year-old’s head. A not just one 14-year-old, but several. He is able to be the sensitive 14-year-old, the outcast, the popular one, the nerdy one. He knows how they think, he knows how the… Continue reading Sunday Book Club: Skippy Dies

Basic characters who don’t seem to have any relationship come together at the end. The book ends in a satisfactory way. I adored… Continue reading Sunday Book Club: The History of Love

I have had a fascination with WWII and the Nazi regime for a while now. It is such an interesting study to see what people will do to survive. How quickly we turn on each other when our lives and the lives of our children are at stake! How quickly we learn to treat beloved… Continue reading Iconic Women: Miss Dior

We had tons of fun, but constantly on the go. On Tuesday, the engine in my beloved Toyota Sequoia… Continue reading Sunday Book Club: Night Film

And because they are highly personal AND very important topics, I want to make sure they are right. So, on to Sunday Book Club!! I… Continue reading Sunday Book Club: Geek Love
