If It Makes You Happy by Claire Kann
Did not finish book.
Ya know...I tried. I really did.
I also tried with [b:Let's Talk About Love|31625039|Let's Talk About Love|Claire Kann|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1505836080l/31625039._SY75_.jpg|52306893] and I'm beginning to think that maybe as much as I really, really want to like them both, it's just too many words/thoughts/internalized feelings and subconversations for me. And I'm sad about it. LOL Because I mean, I like Virginia Woolf for goodness sakes, and she is the QUEEN of all around the mulberry bush. But I just couldn't finish these. So maybe Claire Kann is just not the author for me...and that's okay.
I really like Winnie, and I hope everything works out with her non-relationship, or her pushback against the patriarchy, or her fight against fat injustice, or her cantankerous relationship with her granny, or her buddy comedy with her cousin and brother,.... but like seriously, by page 140 or so, ,...I didn't care anymore. About ANY of it. And I kinda gotta care to keep going on this ride with ya Winnie girl. :(
But hey, go head black girl getting these two books written and published! You go girl!
I'm just umm...gonna...
