Graphic autobiography about Bechdel’s relationship with her mother. Bechdel considers writing a memoir about her father but delves into her mother’s story first. Filled with references to psychology and therapy books she read during that time, as well as her own time in therapy.

This book is a very interesting and a fun book to read. There are a lot of cliff hangers that make me want to read it more and more. The book is about Greg that plays video games too long and his mom wants him to get off of a screen. One day, his school does a balloon challenge to see how far it goes. It turns out to be a big problem of stealing. Halloween is around the corner and he wants to go to some girls party. So he joins the band because she is inviting the whole band. But it is the woodwinds only. He is a brass, and sneaks into the party. At the end, he films a movie but his friend, Rowley, gets scared and climbs up a tree. The fire truck has to get him down and then he becomes famous. I give this book 5 stars ?? ???????? and a good book if you want a challenge.

This was a silly book. I liked when they fell into the water ??

Real streak of winning books lately, absolutely incredible work on display, the large size and gorgeous illustrations really help you get lost in the paranoid, anxious, and nothing-ness of an unproductive Sunday. Firmly planted some James Brown in my ear despite being a book--also proof that you can have a protagonist that is being incredible unlikeable from start to finish and you can still see yourself in them, or maybe just seeing yourself see yourself in them. Good stuff. Been reading lots of graphic novels that are acclaimed lately that I actually don't like so it's nice to read one that WAS actually enjoyable.

i enjoyed reading this book and watching the movie

After the recommendation of a friend in my memoir writing group, I listened to this audiobook on Spotify. The entire book revolves around the relationship between the author and the young leveret she rescues. Against all odds, the wild hare survives. Chloe Dalton’s meditation on the experience, animal behavior and the impact of humans is moving. Her writing is beautifully descriptive and tender. The book feels timeless in many ways. While listening to Louise Brealey’s narration, I felt calm and free of distraction/outside noise. The book tugs at your heart, gives you hope, and is bittersweet in its honesty. This was lovely!

Super fun you also learn about problem solving and how to fix your attitude when things go wrong.

Lucy Barton tells us all about her ex-husband’s life, including the collapse of William’s third marriage, the anxiety of having a father who was a Nazi POW, and his discovery that he has an older half sister in Maine. Of course readers also learn more about Lucy and her past and current relationships with William. Great beach-read for fans of Strout’s other books.
