i who have never known men is one of the bleakest books i've ever read... so beautifully written but made me feel so sad ( i read a review about it being hopeful and did NOT get that from it at all)

for a moment there i thought 'being on a yuck trip' was a new synonym for 'getting the ick' and i was ready to introduce it to my lexicon

Gorgeous piece, brought tears to my eyes!

And there are some genuinely funny bits which is rare in a film of this genre. It's completely silly but I enjoyed every ridiculous moment. 10/10 for the name alone, but also because I was genuinely entertained throughout. Thank u hot frosty x (2/2)

i read somewhere that your book collection is like a fine wine collection: there will be the right moment for different types at different times, some need time and others you should drink/read now! And this has justified every book purchase i have made since!

Thank you for the recommendations! I would recommend shuggie bain by douglas Stuart for similar themes and beautiful writing!

Thanks Leslie! I'm glad there is a community here. Looking forward to chatting all things writing!
