My #JulyFaves for #SizzlinSummerBooks Day 31 are #ConfessionsOfADomesticFailure by Bunmi Laditan and #EverythingisPerfectWhenYoureALiar by Kelly Oxford. I read the other two this month, but they weren't my favorites. See ratings above.

#EverythingisPerfectWhenYoureALiar hilariously covers Kelly Oxford's life from childhood to motherhood, from the zany to the tearjerking, and proves when you live life unapologetically, there‘s no need to lie.

Chrissis_Corner I think the book 'everything is perfect when you are a liar' sounds interesting. But who is Kelly Oxford? Sorry if it's a stupid question 🙈 7y
Jess7 Not a stupid question at all @Chrissis_Corner I didn't know who she was before this book either. According to the book she worked on movie sets as an assistant and then later became a script writer (which was her dream). I think she is most well-known for her tell-it-like-it-is funny tweets on twitter and blog. http://www.npr.org/books/titles/176341607/everything-is-perfect-when-youre-a-lia... 7y
Chrissis_Corner Thank you 😊 7y

🤗🤗#SizzlinSummerBooks Day 28: #ReadThisNow 🤗🤗
These are some of my recent favorites:
#BornACrime | #NotoriousRBG | #ThePassenger | #ConfessionsOfADomesticFailure | #AManCalledOve | #GoodAsGone | #WeShouldAllBeFeminists | #IAmMalala |
#TheTerroristsSon - An extraordinary story, never before told: The intimate, behind-the-scenes life of an American boy raised by his terrorist father—the man who planned the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.

EchoLogical OMG! Bunmi is hilarious! Thank you for reminding me to buy her book. 7y
Jess7 @EchoLogical have you read the short story/essay I tagged on this post (The Terrorist's Son)? It's a must read. It's not funny, but it's very informative and inspiring. 7y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa I hadn't heard of this one, but I'll be looking for it now!. Thank you! 7y
Jess7 Great, it's such a quick read - I hope anyone who hasn't read it adds it to their #TBR stack- it's such an important read. You can read it in 45 minutes or less. 👍🏼👍🏼 @Riveted_Reader_Melissa 7y
Bellajo Loved reading I am Malala 💜she is such a strong female role model! 7y
Jess7 I loved her too @Bella1217 - if you liked that one I can't recommend this one enough - it's very powerful and such a good and very quick read. - #TheTerroristsSon - it's the book I tagged in this post - I'm hoping to spread the word about it bc it's a lesser known book. (edited) 7y
Bellajo Definitely will look into it!🤞 7y

What is #ExerciseWine ? "It's a wine that, when consumed, stimulates your muscles, resulting in rock-hard abs." ???#ConfessionsOfADomesticFailure #BunmiLaditan #YesPlease #Goals #WineTime #LoveIt #LitsyPartyOfOne

MatchlessMarie After reading the tagged book (which I loved btw) this sounds like a read I need in my life. 😂 🍷 7y
Jess7 @EllieDottie @britt_brooke @LittleWonder @Tiffy_Reads @TheLibrarian I opened this book and already on the first page I feel like this author is reading my mind. Can someone please go ahead and invent #exercisewine already? 🙋🏻😜 #yesplease #goals 7y

Jess7 Thanks for the recommendation @MatchlessMarie - I added it to my #litsy #tbr list 7y
britt_brooke So she also wrote the book The Honest Toddler (based on her blog of the same name) which is hilarious. I didn't know she had another book. #stacked 7y
OrangeMooseReads I follow her on Facebook, she is hilarious and honest. I love her. 7y
Jess7 I had never heard of this author before someone recommended this book, but I will be looking to follow her after this. Have you read Kelly Oxford before? I've heard she's funny too. I started reading her first book - Everything is Perfect When You're a Liar. I'm not far enough into it to decide if I like her yet, but apparently she has has a lot of twitter followers and is well liked. @OrangeMooseReads @britt_brooke 7y
OrangeMooseReads @Jess7 I haven't read her. The name looks familiar but can't be sure I've actually heard of her lol 7y
EllieDottie Oh my goodness yes! That would make exercise so much better! I've never heard on this book before but now it it stacked! #lifegoals (edited) 7y
britt_brooke @Jess7 I'll have to look her up. 👍🏻 7y

LeahBergen His paw! 😩 7y
Jess7 @LeahBergen what do you mean? Your emoji looks distressed. 7y
LeahBergen @Jess7 It's "I can't handle the paw cuteness" distress. ? 7y
Jess7 @LeahBergen ohhh ok, he's trying to say these are all my books lol. 😜 just kidding I totally propped him up there with them and he was like ok, whatever. I probably should have named him Eeyore bc he is like I'll do whatever you want. Just pet me. 🤣 7y
