my latest can't-miss recs
or, ya know, miss them. i'll never know.
Summer is starting to wind down here and, I’ll be honest, this type B mama is ready for structure and schedule. Our big family update is that we got a new puppy a few weeks ago, joining the chaos of the three chickens, two parakeets, one dog, and five children that already existed. We’re not completely off our rockers — the puppy will be trained as a service dog for one of our kids. But for now, she is… just a puppy. With puppy needs. And puppy behavior. God help us all.
Since summer has me scraping together brain cells (as I edited this piece I realized I had forgotten the word “brain” in that sentence, which proves the point nicely), I thought I would round up an expansive list of recommendations for you in lieu of trying to make any sense on my own.
I will, however, take a second to remind you that The Mystics Would Like a Word comes out on Sept. 10 and you can preorder your very own signed copy from my local bookstore, Dog-Eared Books. Support indie booksellers, support an author, and get a signed copy of a brand new book — everyone wins!
Now without further ado, we move on to the recs…
