I liked to read this book and learn about the Titanic and history. And also the pictures were good. I would read it again because it is a good book.

it is really interesting and funny

I never believed that the animal kingdom can have a predator protecting a prey

I devoured this book. In my opinion, it’s an extremely well-written triumph of a ghost story that is perfect for foodies who enjoy magical realism. I heard about this book when it was listed as a June Indie Next pick and its premise piqued my interest. I listened to the audiobook on Libby and would be eager to read more from debut author Daria Lavelle. This captivating and haunting culinary masterpiece was *chef’s kiss!

So funny and Hallariuos!

Helen Cartwright, 83 y/o, has returned to her family home in a small village in England after 60 years in Australia to die. Not that she has a diagnosis beyond being old. She has been back for 3 years, but returned still actively grieving the abrupt loss of her husband and the tragic loss of her son. She is very lonely and isolated. She does the same thing most days and memories do not give her comfort. Then she unwittingly brings a 5” male mouse into her house. He decides to stay with her and she decides to care for him. (This is not a talking mouse or an anthropomorphic rodent). To care for him she starts meeting a few people she can connect with as she moves from removing the mouse by trapping to naming Sipsworth and hoping wildlife rescue group will take him to making Sipsworth a housemate. Eventually it is revealed that Helen has done significant things. Slow start. A comforting book. Perhaps this book raises awareness of long term grieving, loneliness, sadness and isolation in people in our lives (or in ourselves).

An exciting book full of action on every page. There are immersive mysteries, deep characters, and a world full of exploration. Brandon Sanderson does a great job of drawing you into the world that he's created and leads you to explore the expansive narrative and backstory of the book.

i enjoyed reading this book and watching the movie

Cannot finish it. Too heavy and depressing.

I first listened to this as an audiobook on Spotify and recently reread the physical book borrowed from the library. I’d definitely recommend listening to the author’s narration over the written version as Sarah Kay is a specialist in spoken word poetry. Overall, I found several of the poems relatable but others forgettable.
