How funny! My kids and I are listening to that in the car in the afternoons while we run all over town. We just finished Ramona and Beezus (that my 6 year old picked) and my 12 year old picked Mr. Popper's Penguins because she thought that her sisters would like it. Up next is Harriet the Spy that my 8 year old picked.

I'm reading Hug Your Haters - it was recommended by the 'business coach' that I use. I just finished The Lake House by Kate Morton and I'm on the hunt for my next book to dive in to.

We finished Harriet the Spy a few weeks ago. Lambie is still speaking to me in the overly formal affected way the kids address their parents. All syrupy "yes, mother..."

Let me know how this is? I feel like it MUST be overhyped since everyone and their mama is obsessed with it.

Has anybody been reading Fredrik Backman? He wrote "A Man Called Ove" and a few other good books. I just finished his latest "Bear Town" - just exceptional, and very moving.

I read A Man Called Ove. I wasn't super impressed. Nothing we haven't seen before.

Started When breath becomes air. I'm impressed by how well written it is. DH read it on vacation last month. It really resonated with him, having just finished residency and just had our first child. It actually brought tears to his eyes!

I'm ready to get back into reading (I have two Literature degrees, for crying out loud!) when the school year starts.
At the end of the day, I'm too wiped -- that sounds like a cop-out, but to be honest I read quite quickly and don't like to be bothered or interrupted whatsoever when doing so, so kids, you know?
It was not unusual for me as a child/teen to max out my checked-out allotment at the library and spend 3-6 hour stretches devouring fiction novels.
I would love to be able to do that again (not in those long stretches, but perhaps 2 hours a day?)

Motivational Interviewing: Helping People Change. I am digging it.

Hillbilly Elegy. This book resonates with me at such deep levels.

I have this on audible! Need to make time to listen. Really looking forward to it.
