I opened NetGalley for the first time in a long time and stumbled across this book. Perhaps it’s because I moved to a new country alone this year, but something about the book caught my eye and compelled me to read it. In The Loneliness Epidemic, Susan Mettes uses data from the Barna Group to… Read More Book Review: The Loneliness Epidemic by Susan Mettes

A friend of mine talked about this book and it sounded interesting so I decided to check it out! There Is No Good Card For This is a book about how we can respond (and why we should respond) when someone we know meets terrible circumstances.

I was reading this book while riding the bus with my roommate, and after we got off, she said to me: “I could see you laughing.” Which is totally true, but unfortunately, in the process of explaining the book to her, I realised that a lot of the humour gets lost while you explain it,… Read More Book Review: Right Ho, Jeeves by P.G.
