October update / LAST blog post on GR
Ooh baby. Has it been a month plus since my last post? You know when I started this blog, which my developer linked to my website, I thought I'd be posting more regularly, but to be honest Goodreads (and this blog) has been neglected because it's not interactive with readers (which is fine, I need to delink this GR blog with my site), the format is pretty crap, and GR just lacks the immediacy of I

question:
Yes absolutely, it's a coming-of-age romcom slow burn, but would benefit older children more. It's a Bank Street College of Educators Book of the Year 2025 pick, if that helps!

“Tears sprang, unbidden, to my beady, plebeian eyes. That so much beauty was possible in the heart of this stone-and-concrete city, that it should be owned by one person, while I paid almost half my salary and almost all my waking hours for not even a hundredth of this space—it hurt.

“25 a.m. I now know all the types of intestinal worms you can get and how to get them. 12:27 a.m. How to get Genevieve to drink from muddy swamp water? How to ensure the swamp water sample contains eggs of flukes? 12:33 a.m. How to get water from a lake containing Guinea worm, surely the Lamborghini of parasitic worms?”
