⭐️⭐️
At least 10 “R-Words” in this read before chapter 5.
If that doesn‘t piss you off or turn you off to reading something, well, it should.
So instead of posting the cover to this book, I‘m posting the only lesson I‘ve learned from today. It‘s been a hard one.
I do not recommend this book to anyone, I expected better from the author & was disappointed this one had been on my TBR for so long.
Leave it on the shelf.
2/2 bails for 2020.
Yikes.
6 times with the “R-word” by the middle of the second chapter.
Not bailing yet, but I am close.
Tempted to start tallying and posting that since everyone would know what it means by now!
Even in a work of complete fiction, it won‘t stop bugging me that I found this so early.
End the “R-word”, PLEASE!!! 😞🙅🏻♀️😔
The MC is an odd one. At first I didn't like the way you learn his inner thoughts--through letters to Richard Gere. But Bartholomew is growing on me, as are the other interesting people who are entering his life.
The narrator is very good EXCEPT when he does some of the women characters. 🙄
Don't ask me—I didn't have any of the typical reactions to this story.
Not sure what I think about this book yet but love reading it in an outside courtyard at my hotel in LA!

This book provokes a lot of discussion and would be a great #bookclub pick as it forces the reader to search within and decide "what would I do?"
