@susanpdoherty I read The Ghost Garden after Monday Rent Boy. Both really fine books in different ways. Reviewed on Amazon and Goodreads. Cheers! "Stories about people with very serious mental health issues, mainly schizophrenia. This book is both heartbreaking and heartwarming, showing how family members at their best devote themselves so tirelessly to their sick relatives. Rosalind in particular is a sister that deserves canonization, and a few of her siblings too. The author pleads for more non-medical help for the severely mentally ill, and has herself accumulated serious karma in her heavenly bank account for her volunteering."

Cos''è lo humor inglese? È Re Carlo che durante la cena alla Casa Bianca dice a Trump "Ho notato le sue modifiche all'Ala Est. Devo dire che anche noi britannici, nel nostro piccolo, provammo a rinnovare la Casa Bianca nel 1814. Nel 1814 i britannici bruciarono la Casa Bianca

One day, I am going to open a Book Bar. People will come to share their problems, and I will comfort them with a drink and a book that speaks to their problem. My Book Bar will be styled like Coben and Dobernigg in Hamburg, the most stylish bookshop I've ever done an event in!

@FurkanGozukara As the aunt of a young Canadian pilot who flew into La Guardia two hours before this fatal crash, I say true heroism is alive and well.

Incredible heroism revealed. An aviation expert explains how the pilots in the LaGuardia crash intentionally took the impact head on. They refused to veer away to prevent the fuel filled wings from hitting the truck & exploding. They sacrificed themselves to save the passengers

After I finished writing The Ghost Garden, a foray into one woman's lifelong struggle wiht psychosis, I became committed to the idea that recovery could happen without debilitating medications. Thank you Ellen Berry for this story. @EllenBarryNYT nytimes.com/2026/03/29/hea…

It's very, very rare that an author gets me to care about fictional characters, Susan, but you did. You're very good at describing people, families, and their interactions. I'm writing reviews for amazon and goodreads - 4 stars, which I almost never give. The one thing that stuck with me in an unsatisfying way was how Ernie could do terrible things to those boys while he loved animals so. Two small points which you will probably never need - lol: -McGill doesn't have a quadrangle; it does have the lower campus but that's not really a quadrangle; -baby adders are as dangerous as adults; Ernie was very unwise to get near those. Thank you for that book.

@susanpdoherty Hello Susan (if I may call you that), We disagree on Canadian and American politics. A lot - lol. But I just finished Monday Rent Boy. You made me care about Arthur and Ernie. The ending may have been a little abrupt but ... Earned a follow, from a fan.

In an unmistakable sign of Europe’s rapidly dimming view on America, the U.S. delegation entered the Milan Cortina Opening Ceremony to a chorus of boos and disapproving whistles from the international crowd of more than 65,000. on.wsj.com/3MjdVCp

Heated Rivalry is a testament not only to the talent of the Canadians who created it, but also to what makes Canada such a remarkable country. We are a country that welcomes storytellers, listens to their stories, and celebrates our differences.
