Bookshelf

I usually go off the "to read" list in my phone, but the last two books I finished were completely random choices I downloaded from Overdrive (best, best, best reading app if you have a library card!). 

Nia Vardalos's memoir about adopting her daughter made me cry. It was so heartfelt and (at times) raw, but also completely hysterical. Yes, it is mostly about adoption, but it is also just about...life. Its ups and downs, experiences whose meaning we only come to understand later, and just moving forward when your life might not look exactly how you expected it to. I loved it.

All We Ever Wanted was Everything was a little soap opera-y, but still good. I downloaded the audiobook and it made traffic bearable, so that's definitely saying something.
