Klara and the Sun, Women Who Dared, and ❤️Wyatt Turns Two ❤️

 

My reading was all over the place last week. I finished Women Who Dared for Women's History Month. We finished watching the 2020 season of The Great British Baking Show, and I celebrated by buying and reading Love to Bake. I finished a couple of 2021 picture books, and I read a science fiction story by a friend, Father Mike, called Election Day.

Best of all I read and loved Kazuo Ishiguro's new book, Klara and the Sun. Has anyone else read this one? What did you think?

Good Thing #1: It was the second birthday of my grandson, Wyatt. His parents threw him a party outdoors. It was wonderful to get together with family after this long year of isolation.

Good Thing #2: The kids got to ride horses at Wyatt's party. They loved that!

Good Thing #3: I painted a cowboy and cowgirl cut-out photo stand for Wyatt's party. The kids had fun with these.
