Bomb Shelter by Mary Laura Philpott
5.0
emotional funny inspiring reflective fast-paced

Some books just hit at the exact moment. This is one of those books. It has been a challenging year for me personally, and the words and thoughts this author has written are exactly the same thoughts I have had in my head over these months.  I literally read this book in 1 sitting. I could not stop gulping the words and feelings of camaraderie I felt towards Philpott as she shared her anxieties about the love for her family as her children age and begin to leave the nest and as a pandemic hits and upends the world.
