After the Bloom | 
So I'm reading this one and I have the red (not final) cover with the face on it. My kids saw it and asked why I was reading a bad YA novel. Obviously changing the cover to the lovely muted option was a good idea!

Okay -not too shabby in the #Litsyatoz department. I still have 15 letters to go though. I've completed: A, B, C, G, H, I, N, P, S, T, W. Book titles in comments.
so-soThis book was ok. Character and world development could have been stronger. I was never overly invested in any of the characters. I would really only recommend this to people who really love historical fiction, and are interested in a story about Japanese-American Internment camps.
Started this one this morning from Netgalley!
so-soIt offers very intimate and thought-provoking insight into the psyche of post-WWII internment survivors as well as the effects on their children & the raising of their children. It's intellectual & emotional. But it's dishearteningly boring & lethargic, which makes it very challenging to stay interested or connect with any of the characters. 2/5.
