Hi everyone. We are joining Comedy Plus’ Awww….Mondays .
I have a lot of good books to tell you about this week. Rosie is posing with Are You Mad at Me? How to Stop Focusing on What Others Think and Start Living for You by Meg Josephson has provided me with more help than 14 years of therapy ever did. In it she describes how people pleasing is actually a defense mechanism many of us resort to in childhood.
And I wanted some spooky books for the season. Dusty is not so sure about them though.
Ghosts and Murders of Manhattan by Elise Gainer is interesting. I wish it had more on the ghosts than the murders though.
And When We Spoke to the Dead: How Ghosts Gave American Women Their Voice by Ilise S. Carter is interesting. I am interested in Spiritualism and this explains the start of it with a twist on how it got women’s voices heard. I especially enjoyed the chapter on Lily Dale, a town in upstate NY that many psychics/mediums live. I have always wanted to visit there, but it is too far for a day trip and I no longer leave my kitties even for a night.
