so-soNot my favorite of her memoirs. As it is a memoir of her family tribe there was just so much going on with all the various family members that the writing felt choppy. I did very much love the tribe living though; and if I could, I too would have my whole family within a six block radius.

Staring my July #BookSpin
"There is no lack of drama in my life, I have more than enough three-ring-circus material for writing, but even so, I always approach the seventh of January with trembling."

pick(Nothing to do with Christmas, but the book cover is boring.) Allende writes as a letter to her daughter Paula, who has died. But it‘s neither maudlin nor sentimental. She bares details of her life that I never would (and I couldn‘t live in such confusion and chaos!) all the while making you love the people she loves. #authoramonth @Soubhiville
Starting my #bookspin and #authoramonth book this afternoon after I FINALLY found it on my unorganized shelves three days later. (I think I have my New Years project for 2022.)😀

Was so excited to tumble upon a signed copy of a book by my favorite author at The Strand awhile back. In addition to writing great fiction Allende has also written some memoirs.
