Bootstrapper: From Broke to Badass on a Northern… di Mardi Jo Link

2023 book #64. 2013. A memoir of a single mom with 3 boys and how they survived the first year after her marriage ended. On a small Michigan farm no less. Humorous and heartwarming. Read for a book club.

Bootstrapper: From Broke to Badass on a Northern… di Mardi Jo Link

Good writer, and a well told memoir of a hard period in her life. A reminder that poverty is always much closer than we think, and what that looks like from the inside. Vaguely annoying, in that I wanted her to succeed without the new love of my life marriage thing, but a good read for all of that.

When Evil Came to Good Hart, 10th Anniversary Edition di Mardi Link

Longwinded in need of a better editor. Chapters completely irrelevant to the story. A whole chapter about a book club many decades later that had Shirley not been murdered she may or may not have wanted to have been a member of. Another chapter on the history of the area. Save time and find an article online would be my advice.

Bootstrapper : from broke to badass on a northern… di Mardi Link

A cute, humorous look at a year in the life of a single mom , raising 3 boys on a Northern Michigan farm. Although this is billed as bio/memoir it's really not that at all. As I said, it just covers the one year, which is the year she left her husband. Said husband moved across the road. She refers to the husband as Mr. Wonderful (sarcastically) through-out.

The writing was not great, most of the stories were humorous, but a few times she irked me with the "poor me" attitude. All things considered, it deserves the 3 stars for the times it made me laugh or smile.… (altro)
