I’m putting Maids of Misfortune on my TBR list. I love that era and setting.

The Keep Busy people are just fascinating, aren’t they?

I remember both. Nancy Friday wrote about mothers and daughters right? Glad you’re back, enjoying the p/t spa and a more relaxed work environment. You clearly are too hard on yourself about being the source of problems. I’m in the process of moving to a smaller apartment and after a good friend helped me clear a room, I felt very inadequate being alone with the task. Not helpful at all. But she is a tenured religion professor, known for her stamina, smarts, productivity (2 books) attending many many events, and helping others. We are all in awe of her! Can’t wait to read your next edition!

I don't know about mothers and daughters, but Nancy Friday definitely wrote My Secret Garden and other books about women's sexual fantasies, crowd-sourced as was Shere Hite

It was called my mother myself: the daughters search for identity.

I wouldn't write it if I didn't mean it! I hope my testimonial leads to similar enjoyment for other readers.
