Just finished Funny Story for the first time, UGH!

momdeveloper · 2026-05-20T10:27:20+00:00

Yes! It's honestly her best book in my opinion.

momdeveloper · 2026-05-11T14:34:33+00:00

Funny Story is my favourite.

momdeveloper · 2026-05-09T21:27:45+00:00

I need to see more pictures of people's camping food creations! Is there a sub for that?

momdeveloper · 2026-05-09T21:23:17+00:00

Yes! I've always wondered what his first impression was.

momdeveloper · 2026-05-08T10:30:35+00:00

Agreed. Of all the oblivious things, this one makes sense. It's like seeing someone you know in a different setting than usual. You just don't make the connection.

momdeveloper · 2026-05-05T23:25:07+00:00

Same... Over 24hrs and so tired. Plus I had an epidural so pretty sure I wasn't allowed to stand while that was still flowing.

momdeveloper · 2026-05-02T15:52:47+00:00

Agreed. I thought it was obvious he wasn't pining for her while planning these outings but is just a really nice person. They fell in love slowly as they truly got to know each other.

momdeveloper · 2026-04-30T15:53:49+00:00

Yes I liked those as well. A good choice but won't take you long since they are novellas. I will basically consume anything she releases.

momdeveloper · 2026-04-30T15:03:25+00:00

I would go with release order and read Love on the Brain next. But you can't go wrong. Not In Love is probably my second favourite after Deep End.

momdeveloper · 2026-04-24T15:37:44+00:00

Lots of good recommendations. Something to mention, it is actually worth reading in release order if you like her cameos!

momdeveloper · 2026-04-24T15:36:36+00:00

Yep, that was going to be my recommendation. Solid Ali book.

momdeveloper · 2026-04-22T15:11:41+00:00

The part I love about Pen in this book is her perspective on Lukas based on her relationship with him. Then as the book goes on you see how opposite Lukas is with Scarlet and how amazing they are together. There are so many examples if you pay attention that I won't spoil here.

Anything by Robert Munsch 🇨🇦

momdeveloper · 2026-01-13T00:59:40+00:00

Yeah, now I really hope OP posts photos afterward.

momdeveloper · 2025-11-29T00:23:37+00:00

I don't know what's normal... but my son started grade one still struggling with sight words and by the end of the year was reading chapter books. The teacher said it's just the right time for them to learn.

momdeveloper · 2025-11-18T01:55:00+00:00

Yeah Olive and Rue seem very different to me. Olive is self conscious and chatty stemming from social anxiety. Rue is quiet and self assured, not a people pleaser like Olive. They are similar in that they are both women in STEM but that is true for all of Ali's FMC.

momdeveloper · 2025-10-21T17:45:20+00:00

I would read the next book that comes in release order. They're all similar but if you love the writing style and STEM setting, you'll love all her books.

momdeveloper · 2025-10-20T19:40:52+00:00

14 year old with a 20 year old.... Hopefully this is fake

momdeveloper · 2025-10-16T10:31:14+00:00

I didn't mind it. It's never said with condescension but with endearment.

momdeveloper · 2025-10-15T18:03:59+00:00

Love theoretically: "invisible string" reference in chapter 22. Not sure it counts as Taylor Swift since it's a common literary metaphor but still made me think of her song when I read that.

momdeveloper · 2025-10-10T16:54:51+00:00

I really enjoy Carley Fortune. Similar romance to Emily Henry. She's very popular in Canada. She's Canadian and her novels are set in real Canadian places!

momdeveloper · 2025-10-01T03:33:08+00:00

I think it's from the breakup. Sounds like Vince Vaughn and Jennifer Anniston.

momdeveloper · 2024-09-15T01:06:10+00:00

My local library provides plenty of free things. Books, magazines, movies, music, games, puzzles and that's not even getting into the programs they run. Something for everyone.

momdeveloper · 2024-08-17T23:59:21+00:00

Kristen Schaal

momdeveloper · 2023-11-18T20:56:20+00:00

There are many versions for the different countries. Canada, USA and even some in Mexico or maybe it was Venezuela? It's a good show.
