People, time keeps marching on. I have been reading books fairly steadily, but how would y’all know? When we last talked about books, I had shared the ones I read in April and May.
Ha! I didn’t read any in May. I did read a few in June:
Lola is Never Drinking Again by Maria Elena Sandivici
I loved this book because one of the characters is my beloved Galveston. Not really, it’s set on The G, but to me, it made The G come to life. A troubled woman returns to the island to help settle her newly deceased aunt’s affairs. She had to reckon with more than her past. It was good.
The House of My Mother: À Daughter’s Quest for Freedom by Shari Franke
I watched the documentary series, Devil in the Family: The Fall of Ruby Franke (and then promptly forgot to tell y’all about it) recently. The doc was about mommy blogger/Influencer, Ruby, and how she was convicted of child abuse. The book by her daughter tells us about how she escaped her mother‘s clutches and how she tried to save her younger siblings from their mother. It is a sad story.
Death Row by Frieda McFadden
This short story is about a woman who is awaiting her death sentence for killing her husband. It was very good.
I may tell you about the ones I read in July soon. I mean, it’s only the end of October…
MK out.
