A is for Avi and Allergies

Welcome all!
I am jumping in with the Blogging from A to Z Challenge to share 26 thoughts from the alphabet!

Today….

On Avi and Allergies.

I’ve been reading Catch You Later, Traitor (affiliate link) and this is the first book by Avi I have read. So far it’s really good!  Set during the mid twentieth century, main character Peter Collison is just a regular 12 year old kid who loves Sam Spade books and detective radio shows. His whole world is turned when his parents are accused of being Communists and traitors against the US.

This is the first book I have read by Avi and I am really enjoying his writing. It makes me want to revisit his other works and get lost in them (hello audio books!).

Avi builds a world for 12 year old Peter that is believable: close knit family, life in school, and I am excited to see what happens.

Allergies:

I have been in denial for a while but I think I have allergies. I have been sneezing and coughing and tearing up like crazy these past few days. I have such a new appreciation for The Bee’s suffering. It’s awful!

Since I am stubborn, I have been suffering by sneezing and scaring my cats for days, coughing and tearing up.

Tell me folks…what do you all do to help ease suffering?
