Ooh ta! I’m not allowed to buy any new books until I’ve finished borrowing from the library by the side of my bed (and on the shelf in the spare room), but I might have to check Libby for some of these

I liked Women On Top better than my Secret Garden. Both books would be burned if you tried to publish them today. I liked Friday's books because they were dressed up oral histories. So human, so wonderfully honest and strange--like real people.
