#NewYearsWhoDis 2022
#NYWD22

Reading your recommendation, Kay ( @kaysworld1 ), between locations while performing Daughter-Uber services for Mom. She always seems to return to the car just as I am reading the loveliest and most delicate of sentences, telling me the next destination when I need a quiet moment. This has a kind of melancholy that fills you with tender reflection. I‘m really enjoying it so far. Thank you for sharing it with me.

monalyisha Beautiful (& funny) post! 💞 2y
Nute @monalyisha Thank you, Alyisha!💕 Girl, that Daughter-Uber service ran all day long. One of us felt worn out afterwards.😆 2y
ReadingRachael This sounds really good to me at the moment! 2y

I picked up the tagged book while swap shopping at B&N today. @sprainedbrain I‘m seeing a very chunky theme with your #newyearswhodis picks. So here‘s some chunky books next to a chunky pup.

monalyisha I adore your chunky pup! My family lost our bulldog (my parents‘ dog) a few years ago…but he was the best pup they ever had! So, so dumb…and so, so funny and sweet. 🐶 2y
monalyisha I clicked your tag and it was only posts from you & I was so confused for a second! There‘s an extra “s” in there! 😅 #NewYearWhoDis 2y
Amandajoy @monalyisha I‘m sorry about your family‘s Bulldog. The are the best dogs. And now I see why I can never find any posts when I search the hashtag! 😂 2y

monalyisha It‘s okay! He lived a long, good life. His name was Sarge (though, with my parents‘ accent it was more like “Saaaahhhhdge,” & he was most often referred to as “Meatball”). And the hashtag thing is very amusing. 😅 2y
sprainedbrain ❤️ your chunky dog! And I‘m sorry… there are some long ones on there. I did an audio/kindle mix for both Chateau and Cloud Cuckoo Land. 2y
Sleepswithbooks Chunky puppies are the best cuddlers 🥰🐶 2y

@MallenNC I loved this! It was an absolutely beautiful audio book. It did almost have me balling on the way home one day. Excellent pick for #newyearswhodis! Thank you for a great match @monalyisha !

Completely blown away by how much I loved this memoir about Shapiro‘s unexpected discovery that her dad was not her biological father. It‘s a complex story of discovery and what makes a family, and I found myself crying a little bit more than once. So good, and I loved the author‘s narration on audio.

Another excellent read thanks to #NewYearsWhoDis!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2

Crazeedi I enjoyed this too 3y
Librariana Will have to opt for the audio version of this after your review 😊💜📚 3y
Amiable FYI, the author does a podcast called “Family Secrets” where she interviews other people who have uncovered similar kinds of secrets in their families. 3y

Reviewsbylola I enjoyed this one too. 3y

What a story! What a resilient family! Thank you @Jerdencon for putting this on my #NewYearsWhoDis list. I went into this thinking it was complete fiction with the author cleverly using one family‘s different experiences to illustrate the many horrendous facets of WWII only to find out while listening to the author‘s note that these were real people, real events. What this family went through is incredible and I won‘t forget their story.

Jerdencon I loved this book! 4y
Jerdencon Glad you enjoyed it! 4y
Butterfinger I think it is the only book that left me hooting, hollering, crying, and laughing at the very end. 4y
