SLICE OF LIFE CLOSE-OUT TO 2023
Wrapping up 2023 with a slice-of-life (mine) post. In late Spring I went shopping with a friend who needed to find a new, replacement, Lazy Boy recliner for her husband. We had a great time checking out the overwhelming selection in our local store. I was stunned by the different styles and also by the marvelous fabric selections for special orders. My friend so loved the comfort of the chair she

I didn’t finish this biography. However, I read enough to come away with two things: (1) Mary Karr wrote about her family truthfully, and with clarity. She was not sentimental; she didn’t sugar coat any of her family memories, nor did she view the pa ...more |

Light, airy, with a totally predictable plot. Definitely YA fiction. An easy no-brainer read, but well-written enough to be enjoyable. Storyline centers around a young editor, Lanie, who is working for a major publisher. When her boss goes on maternity ...more |

The Names by Florence Knapp I didn’t read the cover flap blurb before I started reading this book, so I was well into this story before I realized Knapp was presenting three different versions of a life, based on the three choices of names for a male ...more |

| SO impressed that this novel is Allen Levi’s first. Totally original in concept, vivid characters, and engaging prose. I love that the prologue set the tone, comparing Theo’s enjoyment of flowing rivers to his year in Golden, “…long enough to create ...more | |

| I really enjoy Trigiani’s perspective and voice, and I love that her books are usually written from a woman’s point of view. I also love that her stories center around Italian families. This one again centers around an Italian-American woman, age 35, ...more | |

Thanks for the recommendations. Appreciate it. Both Secret Daughter and The Golden Sun sound like my kind of books.
Hello Lynn: That's nice that we're connected. I'm afraid I haven't been very active on Goodreads. The 2 book covers that appeared re: my profile are both rock and roll bios, and I think you already know, that this is a bit of an obsession with me. Other books however, that I have recently enjoyed are Peter Robinson mysteries (Bookcrosser Over-the-moon kindly sent me one earlier this year from Switzerland, and I really liked it) and if you haven't read "Secret Daughter" or "The Golden Sun" by Indo-Canadian Shilpi Somaya Gowda - they are excellent. Shelley also gave me "The Colour of Water: A Black Man's Tribute to His White Mother," by James McBride - FANTASTIC! xo
