I'm so excited that Recliner NYC is partnering with me because I found this longish nightgown

thing and I don't wear nightgowns usually, but it's like a floor-length kind of dress made out of the softest fabric I've ever felt, and the front is light gray, and the back is black, and it goes all the way to the floor, and I saw it on an ad in Instagram, and had to get it, and now I bought it, and I'm obsessed, so we went after a recliner in New New York City and they gave us a discount and you can find it on my website.

It's amazing.

I'm so excited to partner with them.

Nine-tenths of the customers told them that their products have helped improve their sleep,

which I totally believe because these pajamas and my nightgown and everything are

functional, but kind of stylish and really awesome. So go to recliner. n.YC and use code

mom's x recliner. Moms X recliner. And you get 20% off, which I wish I had had when I got my

nightgown. So anyway, go check it out and tell me what you think. I loved it.

I had the privilege of interviewing author Anna Solomon on the Good Morning America Book Club

Instagram Live account. Her book, The Book of V, was the GMA Book Club pick for the month of May, and I got to interview her there.

So this is the recording of our live Instagram conversation.

So if you want, you can also watch us talk if this isn't good enough.

But Anna Solomon is the author of three novels, The Book of V, which I mentioned, leaving Lucy Pear and The Little Bride.

She's a two-time winner of the Pushcart Prize.

Her short fiction essays and reviews have appeared in the New York Times magazine, Plowshares, One Story, the Boston Globe, and elsewhere.

She's the recipient of awards from McDowell, Yadot, Breadloaf, the Rhode Island State Council for the Arts, and the Missouri Review, among many others.

Previously, she was an award-winning journalist for national public radio's living on earth.

Anna is a graduate of Brown University and the Iowa Writers Workshop and teaches writing at Barnard

College, Warren Wilson's MFA program, and creative writing, and the 92nd Street-Wy, Unterberg
