Memoirs, particularly in the form of a collection of personal essays, are very difficult to review as a significant part of the enjoyment is whether you respond to the author's writing style or not. Lucky for me, I connect with her style. I appreciate that the essays can be largely stream of consciousness (I actually cannot tell if she plans the essays, as her stream takes her to a different place from where she started - leaving me delightfully surprised). She infuses her observations of everyday life (most of it, a common experience - most) with a sense of humour I appreciate: light, relatively non-judgemental, smart without being obtuse. Being personal essays, I also appreciate that I can easily read this book in smalls doses - a little pick-me-up on a rough day or leave the book in my purse for stolen moments. Overall, I am enjoying myself and recommend this book to others.
