I am hoping this one‘s good because I fell off the wagon— I requested this from the library four weeks ago and no sane person can wait four weeks when they really want to read something 🤷‍♀️
I will let you know how it is.

It's comics today for Day 25 of the countdown to Dewey's Readathon. Don't judge, but I am a 58 year old woman who's loved the X-Men every since her teenage boys introduced her to them years ago. #30daysofreadathon.

It's Saturday!! Wonder how far I can get into this before my grandchildren wake up? Then we must switch to the BFG. Giants versus Charles Manson? Got to go with the Giants eating human beans I guess.

I was stunned by all our lives. We were divorced, we were gay, we were running large companies, we were living alone on an island, we were dealing with cancer, mental illness, aging parents, children who are not growing up as we expected.

Between his skin and hers, there was the smallest of spaces, barely enough for air, for this slick of sweat now chilling. Even still, a third person,their marriage, had slid in.

peggyriley Such a gorgeous end to an intriguing first chapter. 8y

Finally finished! It was very interesting...sometimes a challenge to read because of the layout, but enjoyable. Just grab a cup of tea, coffee,glass of wine, gin and tonic or whatever and find a nice place to settle in for an afternoon read.
