Loved hearing Wilson speak, then meeting him afterward, recently in Nashville! He‘s so funny, quirky, and sweet. This was not my fave of his, but still enjoyable.

I hadn't read Wilson before and this was quieter than I was expecting. Quietly amusing, quietly revealing, quietly affecting. Perhaps a bit thinner than it could be, but I quietly enjoyed it.

pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️This book was just good to read.
It is light and happy, all the characters are immensely likeable, and there is so much emotional introspection from all five of the "main" people, it's just enjoyable.
There is also a focus on male friendship and found family that is rarely shown, and of true family loving each other while fundamentally, though not purposely, misunderstanding each other.
If you need a fun, happy break, I recommend this!
pickThere is nature vs. nurture, and then there are the things that shape us because we don‘t have them. For the.Hills children, that absence is their father and when they go on a cross-country road trip to meet each other and confront him, they realize what it means to be family and what home truly is. I absolutely loved this. Each character felt so real and distinct. I was happy to be along for the ride on this adventure.
pickThis enemies to lovers road trip book takes the characters from one national park to another. It was a perfect fit for the trip I just took as we visited many of the same places. It was spicier than I expected, but I loved the characters, former high school rivals, and they way they pushed each other and became a safe place for each other to be vulnerable as they process grief. Recommended if you want a romance that takes place on a trip out west.
My #weekendreads and #hyggehour. On a meandering road trip, currently outside of Reno.
Last night was at Feather River Hotsprings. Getting back to a half-read Lincoln Highway which I‘m absolutely loving. Loving Mary Oliver‘s Upstream as my quiet book. And could not put down The Boy in the Suitcase. Enjoying Invisible Murder, 2nd in the series. Enjoying the backdrop of life for Hungarian Romas.
panThis was the longest tall tale I've ever read. On the plus side was the descriptive writing. On the negative side were the unlikeable characters and the story that kept getting more and more absurd (especially the fishing and movie scenes). I really enjoyed October Sky and I know humorous writing is challenging to pull off, but this wasn't my cup of tea.
