We are never meeting in real life essays6/22/2023 And a sharp edge!” Irby shows her sharp edge throughout a collection that touches on topics ranging from the potential pros and cons of living in a small town, her employment adventures at an animal hospital, her upbringing with an alcoholic, abusive father and the mother he exploited, her preoccupation with death, and her unpredicted path to lesbian marriage. My funny runs out, my cute runs out, my smart sometimes hiccups, my sexy wakes up with uncontrollable diarrhea. “People are boring and terrible,” she writes. She prefers writing jokes for online consumption rather than interacting with so-called real people in the so-called real world. The second collection of essays by Irby ( Meaty, 2013) explores what it means to be “fat and black.” Though she has an active and diverse sex life, the author seems to prefer staying home with her cat, with whom she’s “trapped in this mutually abusive codependent relationship.” She watches a lot of TV and eats a lot of junk food while watching junk TV. A blogger ( Bitches Gotta Eat) has to laugh to keep from crying-or maybe killing somebody-in this collection of essays from the black, full-figured female perspective.

On the jellicoe road by melina marchetta6/21/2023 I’m not exaggerating when I say On the Jellicoe Road changed my life. By the time I had picked up On the Jellicoe Road, Marchetta had only published three books, and I was determined to read all of them because I adored her writing. I had devoured Melina Marchetta’s Looking for Alibrandi - which I deeply related to, being Italian-Australian - and then Saving Francesca. I was in year 9 of high school and I had just discovered the joy that is reading. I first read On the Jellicoe Road when I was 14 years old. “Taylor Markham,” said Raffaela, “I’m going to say a prayer for you.” And although I wanted to mock her and explain I didn’t believe in anything or anyone, I realised that no one had ever prayed for me before. TW: death, murder, suicidal ideation, depression, anxiety, asthma attacks, discussion of domestic violence. She needs to find out more, but this means confronting her own story, making sense of her strange, recurring dream, and finding her mother-who abandoned her on the Jellicoe Road. Taylor’s only clue is a manuscript about five kids who lived in Jellicoe eighteen years ago. She has to keep the upper hand in the territory wars and deal with Jonah Griggs-the enigmatic leader of the cadets, and someone she thought she would never see again.Īnd now Hannah, the person Taylor had come to rely on, has disappeared. Taylor is leader of the boarders at the Jellicoe School. |
