About this deal

Rhiannon Lewis thought she finally had it all: thanks to the pandemic she’s had to keep a much lower profile but has found happiness with her fiancé Rafael and his family. For once, she is surrounded by people who love her for who she is (or who they think she is). Spraying the plant with a forceful stream of water will help, but you can also use insecticidal soaps and horticultural oils. Diseases Yet...I found myself liking her just a little (while at the same time being absolutely appalled by her choices), because we live the book inside her head and get to know how and what she's thinking. The author's characterization is fantastic, very rarely do you get a glimpse inside of a believable character like this, and that takes some talent. To reduce powdery mildew infection, promote good air circulation in your garden. This can be done by increasing the spacing between plants or increasing the size of your pathways. Stagnant, humid conditions are a haven for powdery mildew. Just had a text from Cleo - Anni had a baby boy called Samuel at 3.19 this morning. Nine pounds something and no drugs. her vagina must look like a lasagne dropped from a department store roof"

The story follows the deranged, but at the same time loveable, Rhiannon who is hilarious, relatable, but also… a serial killer. In some moments, I almost thought that Skuse had wormed her way into my brain and written her ‘kill lists’ based exactly on my own annoyances… eg “people who pronounce ‘h’ as ‘haitch’, “Iron Man”, “People who leave doors open so they bang incessantly” etc. Other than the whole killing thing, Rhiannon is a very relatable and down to earth character that I think a lot of readers will resonate with. The thing is, as funny as her kill list is, girl-next-door Rhiannon Lewis IS actually a killer, and a serial killer at that, something she is very proud of! I didn’t like the writing style. It was in the form of a diary with some dialogue so I felt abstracted away from what was happening and it felt like I was being told rather than shown. Each diary entry was a chapter and they were discrete events so I couldn’t really follow along or remember what had happened before. Even after the exciting chapters, nothing much would follow after and there was no to little tension afterwards. She clearly got a certain high from killing so I would’ve expected her to write more about that but nop. Instead, let's hear more about how much she hates her colleagues. Their vase life is relatively short, but they provide interesting texture, color, and fragrance to a flower arrangement or even a bridal bouquet. Vase life is typically between 4 to 7 days. Sometimes the vines are harvested to use as foliage. Once sweet peas start to bloom in early summer, they must be deadheaded or harvested regularly! This is important because the plant will otherwise start to set seeds right away, and your bloom time will be short. Some gardeners say that keeping up with deadheading is a job in itself during full bloom.Major plot point that did not seem real. Would a lady like Swetpea be HONEST and tell baby daddy he was in fact the dad? Why didn't she lie? She is the type who would. So that really got to me because it didn't seem REAL. Spencers– Significantly larger blooms, ruffled and waved petals, bloom when day length is 12 hours (synonym is “Late Spencers”

But I did not love this. I did not HATE it. I did not even dislike it. But certain things..well..bothered me. I will list the good and bad below, the bad first, good second. It says on the cover "Bridget Jones meets American Psycho". I haven't read any of those, never watched the film with Christian Bale, but I saw the Bridget Jones movies, and I see why the comparisons. Only, Rhiannon is a British Psycho. I've had this duet on my shelves for months, bought them convinced but then I read a bad comment from the person I got these books recommended, so I hesitated for months. But I'm on a cleanse of my physical TBR needing to make more space so I grabbed it finally. It was a surprisingly outcome I enjoyed it as much as I did. I do love books like this. Jane Doe, My sister, the serial killer, the You series. Also My lovely wife. Sweet peas thrive in climates with cooler summers but don’t like to freeze. Because I live in the Midwest, sweet peas can be challenging because we have such a short spring. For these reasons, I’ve found that providing winter protection has best for me. Once you know the requirements for growth, you can adapt your sweet pea planting to your climate. Sunlight Sweat peas will thrive in full sun during the day and partial sun in the afternoon.Upstairs neighbours who think it's a grand idea to have laminate floors with insufficient underlay and 3 tap-dancing kids.
