Verity
it was amazing
Verity
by Colleen Hoover
If there's one word for this book, it is 'scandalous'. Two words - movie worthy. No surprise there's movie rights in the works. This is one of those books made for a single session; binge-read types. Because it moves ahead non-stop, a so...

We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves
by Karen Joy Fowler
Goodreads asks me "What did you think?". Honestly, am confused. There are parts that I am still thinking about. The plot is decent, even with the twist about 30% into the book. It's a good storyline based on practices that were pretty no...
Educated
it was amazing
Educated
by Tara Westover
There are cults. And then there are families. Blind, stubborn, single focussed families that choose to live their beliefs above everything else. Above logic. To the world that scoffs at them, they scoff right back. The book throws you ...

Mexico

Beautiful World, Where Are You
did not like it
Beautiful World, Where Are You
by Sally Rooney
I picked this up because it had been rated as one of the best books in one of the Goodreads lists for 2020/2021. Didn't work for me. I still kept chugging along thinking it would get better. Finally, about 50% into it, I came back to Goo...
