I’m beginning to think that the older I get, the less willing/able I am to tolerate winter’s grayness. I don’t mind cold, but I want sunshine!

Sadness did end up being a DNF for me, but others like it, so let me know if you try it, and what you think.

I get up in the morning thinking it’s 5am and it’s almost 8. Yuck.

My reading has not been great but am continuing with one you let go- Self Portrait With Boy. Something about it is compelling me- but it’s not love. It’s just not dislike so I’m going with it!

I hope Sadness is a White Bird pulls itself out of the bin. It received such high marks on Goodreads, but is it a no-go? thx

Standard Deviation is a kick, and I see some parallels to my own life in it, too.

I’d skip How to Stop Time, especially if you’ve heard of others not liking it. It started out strong, but then sort of fizzled.

Let me know when you finish The Great Alone.

Educated is really working for me, but in someways it reminds me of The Great Alone. Another book with a lot of physical abuse and a mom looking the other way.
