Elizabeth Gilbert and Jen Hatmaker - 2 memoirs

For the last two weeks I read two memoirs- I love supporting Independent bookstores and loved grabbing them.  However, the idea that a hardcover new book is $30 - I am not I am ok with.


Elizabeth Gilbert writes a memoir about walking through grief and finding freedom.

Makes sense to me. Life is hard and sometimes harder for others. I hope she stays in sobriety for life.

But I will say that some of the story is a lot!

Road trip - Audio and books

Over the last three weeks I listened to 

Southern Lady Code by Helen Ellis  Link -

I would definitely read or listen to other books by her.

Hunger Like a Thirst by Besha Rodell  - All about food and food writing - link for one review

The Latte Factor by David Bach - recap on investing and it is a good reminder. Saving and habits make the difference not necessarily making more money.

The Old Man and the Sea- By Hemingway - only 2 hours  - Honestly, started to listen to it and then fell asleep - need to relisten.

I also read  - Twice the Family: A Memoir of Love, Loss, and Sisterhood Julie Mcgue
