This review is part of a ParentBloggers book tour.

The Sky Isn’t Visible from Here: Scenes from a Life is the newly released memoir by Felicia Sullivan, creator of the Writers Revealed podcast, among other projects. I have been lucky enough to work with on Writers Revealed, and which piqued my interest in her memoir. This is a book about Felicia living through her mother’s addictions and relationships, surviving a very difficult childhood, and then struggling with her own addictions. I have seen friends and family members struggle with addictions, and it was amazing to look into Felicia’s life and read a brutally honest account of living with addiction.

I just found your Web site through Kind Blog … A Gaggle of Girls is a GREAT name (I also grew up with a gaggle of girls)! I am bookmarking it!

This book by Felicia Sullivan sounds interesting and makes me want to read more. Always looking for good reads. Thank you.

      About Me: I'm a Mom living a busy life with my husband, 3 girls (10, 8, 5), Celiac Disease, homeschooling, Chronic Lyme Disease which acts like Fibromyalgia, 2 dogs, 1 puppy, 1 cat, and a lot of books & computers in a house up the hill from a New England beach. We eat great, homecooked, allergy safe food due to our food allergies & sensitivities. In my copious free time, I'm writing a book about dairy-free eating, plus I update our web pages, and read.
