No. A Complete Sentence: The Grown Woman Edition. Written by H. Montinique
The Field of Fuques series continues with Harmony, who has reached the point where she no longer feels any need to explain or apologize for the word no. This second book follows her through the everyday situations that tend to wear a woman down. In one scene a friend keeps borrowing money and never pays it back. In others, a man lies all over his dating profile, a scammer tries to talk her mother out of her savings, and a coworker assumes that her weekend is available. Each time, Harmony picks a single FUQUE flower, gives the situation the one fuque it is going to get, and answers with a full and complete sentence.
Like the first book, this one is written in rhyme, and every scene is paired with a full-color illustration, so it is easy to read on your own or to share out loud with friends. A good deal of the humor comes from how familiar these moments are, and from watching Harmony handle each one calmly and without the long explanation people so often expect.
Anyone who has talked herself out of a boundary, or explained a no far more than it needed explaining, will find something familiar here. It makes a thoughtful gift for a friend or a sister who is learning that protecting her time and her peace is allowed, and it works just as well kept for yourself.
