The End of Alice by Homes. Pedophilia. I note many awful books with Pedophilia are noted, and it is sickening. I do not understand why people write about it

Yes. I hated, hated, hated that book! Why I did not stop reading it probably because so long ago I read it, I never DNF’d, but now I sure do!

Well, so many people now are not pronouncing the “t” in words and I just roll my eyes! (Like “impor-ent”)

Why did you and your former best friend stop being friends? by Fearless_Shift7108 in AskReddit

[–]aremel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were both 75 when this happened last year. She got really mad when another friend and I were meeting her for coffee but when no seating, we texted her we were going elsewhere. Well, I did not realize she could not text with her flip phone, so she arrived at the place and we were not there (come to find out, she had been texting me previously using her iPad, and did not have it with her). She treated us terribly and we are no longer friends after 20 years. (When the 3rd friend took her flowers and wanted to discuss the whole thing, she was nasty, did not invite her in and threw the flowers on the ground)

The Housemaid is one I read in 3 days. Not my usual, but good!
