The Stella Prize shortlist!
I’ve read three:
Diving into Glass (not a fan)
The Weekend (really enjoyed)
There Was Still Love (loved it)
The Yield is on my tbr

Joke of the week:

A *funny* story:
Doctors visit to refresh my asthma medication prescriptions…
Nurse: how much alcohol would you drink per week?
Me: one to two glasses for the week
Nurse: ever six glasses in one sitting?
Me: no. Two is my limit.
Nurse: let’s weigh you…
Post weighing…
Nurse: steady with your weight, that’s good. So, you don’t want to talk to someone about your drinking?
Me: no. I think I’m right.
WHAT?!!! Where did that even come from? Incidentally, number of questions about my asthma: 0

What I’ve read this week:

Until next week… 😊☕📚
Oh, and a few of these too: 🥂 …since I apparently have a drinking problem…
I’ve read 2 from the shortlist, neither rocked my world. I might try fit in the others, as I have a bit of a head start.
That’s quite weird at the doctors – had they just had some sort of workshop on female drinking? The ‘issue’ of the week!
The Lost Love Song is on my TBR for this week!

I have no idea, but if they did, there was no evidence of it. I’m inclined to just lie next time and say I don’t drink at all.
The Lost Love Song was just gorgeous.

I’ve seen some outrageous supermarket videos too, of people fighting over toilet paper. We’re truly doomed if there is ever a real apocalypse. Common sense just seems to disappear with so many. 😔

The toilet paper situation is MENTAL.

Maybe you should have asked how many drinks the nurse has each night… perhaps she was ‘hungover’ with info from the previous patient.
