    How do you keep up with all of this??

    I've heard good things about Still Alice. It's up for consideration for our bookclub this month.

    You had a great week! I Was Told There'd Be Cake and I Loved, I Lost, I Made Spaghetti both look like a lot of fun. I can't wait to see what you think of Still Alice - I'm sure it'll be a tear-jerker.

    I read "I was Told..." earlier this year - it's good! Some essays are far better than others, but overall it's a good read.

    I read Outcasts United and I Was Told There'd Be Cake and enjoyed both of them. I Loved, I Lost, I made Spaghetti is next up on my reading rotation and it sounds great, doesn't it? And I have Unaccustomed Earth sitting here too since I have loved both of her other books. Enjoy your haul this week!

    Great list! I just got I Loved, I Lost, I made spaghetti today. I just heard about the Flourishing with food allergies and look forward to your review as we both have sons with nut allergies.

    How cool that you won a book from Twitter! I haven't joined up yet, I'm so tempted.

    Looking forward to your reviews!
