Historia
Eudora Honeysett is done with this noisy, moronic world - all of it. She has witnessed the indignities and suffering of old age and has lived a full life. At 85, she isn’t going to leave things to chance. Her end will be on her terms. With one call to a clinic in Switzerland, a plan is set in motion. Then she meets 10-year-old Rose Trewidney, a whirling, pint-sized rainbow of sparkling cheer. All Eudora wants is to be left alone to set her affairs in order.

Historia
Have you ever wondered why eating cheese can sometimes feel like a cuddle? Or how a good curry can be just what we need after a tough day? Oh, and just what is it about butter that makes us feel so at ease...? The foods we turn to behind closed doors are deeply personal, steeped in nostalgia and topped with a healthy dollop of guilty pleasure. Comfort Eating finds Grace Dent inviting listeners to her kitchen table to discover what makes the things we really eat so delicious.

Thank you to Siobhan McSweeney for recommending this fine listen. Grace Dent’s writing and voiceover are tiptop The universal made personal for everyone on your gift-giving list.
I heard the alternative title was BSOB: Big Slab of Butter.

Historia
488 Rules for Life is not a self-help book, because it's not you who needs help, it's other people. Whether they're walking and texting, asphyxiating you on public transport with their noxious perfume cloud, or leaving one useless square of toilet paper on the roll, a lot of people just don't know the rules.

Comforted in my judging nature
Revisado: 08-18-23
I mean “judging” in the kindest way.
Kitty Flanagan’s pitch-perfect pithy humor came onto my radar in her Netflix series, “Fisk”.
She is a master storyteller.
Her honest thoughts and viewpoints are quirky incidental bugaboos that plague a lot of folks.
She freakin’ calls situations and behavior out for what they are.
Airplanes? WEAR HEADPHONES.
YOU. AND YOUR KIDS.
All-around stellar listen. Will listen again.
I love you, Kitty Flanagan. You own your annoyances. I will too now. Thank you.
1/1/70 ❤️

Brilliantly crafted characters and plot
Revisado: 02-08-18
No spoilers.
Narrator’s talent equal to author’s. Maggie’s voice lifts the words and carries them across four parts of book.
Simply amazing read.
Siblings. Family. Interracial marriage. Alternative lifestyle. Research animals. New York. Judaism. Spirituality. What lies beneath and beyond.
Themes cut to core of our humanness: in our families of origin and in the subsconcious selves.
