Her famous painting has thorns around her neck. She died young and her house now has all her pictures for people to see, and she painted when she had a pain in her back.

I like Among Us.

It was based on a girl thief that really wanted to be nice, but disliked saying things like "thank you" or "sorry". There were challenges along the way and a wizard that was so polite, but so annoying to her. It was really funny.

A very interesting read that touches on a number of current societal concerns.

Audio book a story about a wealthy woman in her sixties who awakens in a nursing home memory unit with no memory of why she is there. She escapes and with the support of her young teen granddaughter and gradual recovery from over medication, Rose untangles a complicated web of evil - it’s all about the greed for money from relatives who will inherit and the greed of the nursing home owners to shorten the lives of selected residents. I did not enjoy this book- foul language though

Took a while to get into it, but definitely worth the read

I can connect as a working mother of 3 who loves dogs.

This was cute. I really like the character’s journeys being both the same and different.

I loved this book. Definitely recommend it.

Just as it appears that our protagonist and her would be devour-er reach an understanding the situation is further complicated by the revelation that one of their classmates is a protective deity determined to protect out of guilt for letting the tragedy that took her whole family. The whole affair is presented gothic soap opera reminiscent of Dark Shadows. While you never forget that the story is set in japan; it has a real sense of place, and the mythology is ever present, but it could easily be adapted to be set anywhere coastal with a rich folklore to draw from. The translation seems clean and efficient and the delicate lifework of the art is beautiful , even when the subject mater is horrific.
