I'm about 10 chapters into "You feel it just below the ribs" by @happierman and Janina Matthewson, and I'm finding it very hard to put down. It's a brilliant book. I just wish it hadn't been so hard to track down in the UK! Totally amazing piece of fiction @withinthewires

Does buying school uniform with an ND kid ever get less stressful? I hate making her feel so bad. I know that she will be fine once it is all washed and she's been in it for more than 10 seconds, but it's just heartbreaking watching it happen again and again
