Tidbits Again
Compelling and insightful – those thoughts you infrequently have during periods of alone. I entered the world of “Tidbits Again,” and I didn’t want to leave. Random moments of introspection, sadness, and hilarity are right on point in the lives we live – or don’t! Except, if you look closely, you can see the author peeking out from behind the point, musing on your response.

Well, Dr. Judy’s done it again – “Tidbits Again” is brilliant – made me laugh out loud, feel her loneliness and then know that she is OK. So I know that I can manage my own loneliness and I will be OK , too. And it is still OK to laugh! She shows that laughter is comfort. Her books are always handy – I can open to any page and talk to a friend.
