I'm Noticing That... What's this blog?

Welcome.

I'm Marisa, a therapist who loves books.

When reading, I frequently think: "what skills would I give this character?" Then I go down a rabbit hole.

In this blog, I share some of those skills with you. Each post focuses on a character, giving you enough context and never any spoilers, and includes easy-to-try coping skills.

If a book is on this blog, I read it, loved it, and highly recommend it. Negative isn't my style; when I read something and think, "meh," the book will simply never be mentioned on the blog.

Happy Reading!
