Fiona "Tom Robbins is my lover." ]]> <![CDATA[Fiona added 'The Secret Lives of Litterbugs: and Other (True) Stories']]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/74302918 to: The Secret Lives of Litterbugs: and Other (True) Stories by M.A.C. Farrant
bookshelves: 2009, memoirs
Entertaining and insightful at times, but not spectacular. The Secret Lives of Litterbugs is a collection of memoirs that reminisce on family life, raising children, and the day-to-day. Sometimes the collection seems a little thrown together, but it was fun to read about Farrant's uncoventional family, both as she was growing up and when she has children of her own. She seems like a cool lady, someone you'd want to have a drink with. ]]> <![CDATA[Fiona added 'Still Life with Woodpecker']]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/58076825 Still Life with Woodpecker (Hardcover) by Tom Robbins

I'm so glad you'll be reading it! I was actually in Edmonton this weekend, and I spoke to her at Litfest. Would definitely recommend speaking to her if you get the chance in the future. ]]>
