Here's my slightly sarcastic review for The Golden Age by AA Joan Londonhttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
I was hoping to find an answer to What Are Mondays Good For, Anyway?, not being a fan of Mondays, and while I enjoyed the illustrations, I don't think I'd have been happy sending my kids to school with these suggestions.
2.5★ My review of What Are Mondays Good For, Anyway? with illustrations, of course

Doris Lessing showed in 1963 that it wasn't possible for even A Woman on a Roof to escape unwanted attention. I'm not sure things have changed that much in 50 years, have they?
2.5~3★ My review of A Woman on A Roof with a link to the short story itself

Just finished reading Ivan the Terrible
by Robert Payne and Nikita Romanoff.The book delves into the madness of Ivan the Terrible and how his delusion and his awful deeds affected his subjects and the future of 15th-century Russia - My review.
The Flatshare is a fun rom-com by English author Beth O'Leary. Quirky Londoner Tiffy is desperate to find a new flat and lovable palliative care nurse Leon offers her an affordable solution when he rents out his flat and bed to her to use while he’s working nightshift. Their friendship grows gradually through a series of post-it notes since they are never actually in the flat at the same time. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ here is my review
The Switch is another story by English author Beth O'Leary. It features 79-year-old Eileen who lives in a little Yorkshire village and her granddaughter Leena. Leena is struggling with corporate London life and Eileen has decided to try dating again so they decide to swap homes for the summer with fun and unexpected results. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ here is my review

Late to the party with A.J. Pearce's outstanding debut, Dear Mrs. Bird. Anna Popplewell's narration of this funny, moving historical fiction is excellent. Eagerly anticipating the sequels. 5★shttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
A classic that I somehow missed! A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle has everything I'd have loved as a young reader: kids on a quest, a mysterious missing father, magic spirits, time travel, and Evil to be overcome! I still enjoyed it now.
4★ My review of A Wrinkle in Time
