Premise, bold female characters, Swift pace (0 more)
A story of passion, friendship, obsession, and self-discovery
Give yourself a few hours to dip into the creative world of animation—one you haven’t likely given much thought to in the past.

This novel is rich with character details and development, while holding back as much as the characters hold from themselves.


It’s an unfolding of the creative process, of friendship and love and loyalty, with a shadow of darkness and feminism. It could have become strident, but Whitaker strikes a balance of advancing the story while leaving the reader to draw their conclusions about self-exploration and the exploitation of others.

Sewing Knits from Fit to Finish: Proven Methods for Conventional Machine and Serger by Linda Lee is a great guide for anyone learning to sew. The book has high-quality paper with lots of colorful photographs and clear illustrations.

This book is not for beginners. the descriptions and directions are very thorough, they are still complex and intense. The author describes the different kinds of knit fabrics as well as outlines the best way to create buttonholes, hems, seams, etc to avoid puckering or stretching.

I received an ARC copy from Quarto Publishing Group - Creative Publishing International and Creative Publishing international via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
