*Crumples in a dark physical guilt-ache: "When our father does the things he needs to do in the world, we understand it is his due. If our mother does the things she needs to do in the world, we feel she has abandoned us.” Le sigh.

You’ve got me so curious about Hot Milk! Adding to my TBR now, and moving up the list.

I alternated between the audiobook (while I walked or worked on a puzzle) and the paperback which put in the perfect sticky summertime mood I was looking for.

I’ve never listened to an audiobook! I listen to tons of podcasts while I’m out walking and running, and when I’m needlepointing and cooking…maybe it’s time to give an audiobook a try.

I had a long car ride recently and finally gave in! Fun for certain moments, but I still prefer a book in hand.

I’m such a tactile person - I prefer hardcover to paperback!
