This book was added to my TBR when I came across it in a list of must reads. It's marketed as a phenomenal thriller of the year....did I read the same book?! Either that or it went way over my head. I didn't like any part of it, the characters, the disregard the boys and the parents had for the victim....I kept reading it hoping it would get better...but it wasn't my cup of tea. #hermankoch #thedinner #tea_sipping_bookworm #bookstagram #bookqueen

Working full time with three kids and working towards my degree part time is seriously hampering my reading time. #currentlyreading #roadtrip #thedinner #hermankoch

Hey everyone! Be sure to check out @MinDea ‘s page tomorrow at 10 am PST / 1 pm EST for her monthly #BooktoScreen discussion. #TheDinner by #HermanKoch

As a guest host this month, I will be helping @MinDea facilitate the discussion as much as possible, but unfortunately a big case I‘m working on did not settle today like I had hoped, so I have to go into work tomorrow mid morning to continue preparing for a January 3rd trial.

Cinfhen Good luck💚 7y
Jess7 Thank you @Cinfhen - There are two partners sitting first and second chair on it. I‘m just one of two attorneys helping them prep them for it. I‘m still holding out hope that it settles so I can have my weekend back. 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 (edited) 7y
Cinfhen My hubby is an attorney~ so I know how these cases play out 🙄#nervewrecking 7y
Pamwurtzler Fingers crossed @Jess7 ! I hope you get your day back! 7y
Jess7 Thanks all! It didn‘t settle unfortunately, but after working all day, we were able to continue the trial in light of ongoing settlement negotiations... so there‘s that at least! I shouldn‘t have to go into work tomorrow. :-) that‘s a plus! @Cinfhen and @Pamwurtzler - I responded to all of the discussion questions a little late, but they‘re there now :-) (edited) 7y

Pickpick

#AugustGrrrl | Day 10| #FamilyAffair | ?#TheDinner ?by #HermanKoch | 4.5/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️? | An internationally bestselling phenomenon: the darkly #suspenseful, highly #controversial tale of two #families struggling to make the hardest #decision of their lives -- all over the course of one #meal. ? 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?"

Cinfhen I'm definitely bumping this book up! Great graphics ‼️ 7y
Jess7 @MinDea this would be an excellent book for your #BookToScreen as it would prompt a lot of discussion about the choices these characters are faced with in this book (and now movie starring #RichardGere) and whether they made the right decision. One of the characters suffers from a condition that isn't clearly explained and so deciding what condition it is and whether that played a role in his or her actions would also be interesting to discuss. 7y
Jess7 I would love to help you co-host a discussion on this book if you would consider selecting it for an upcoming month. @MinDea 7y

Dear Mr. M: A Novel | Herman Koch
post image

🎉👏Fri-yay! Day off reading by the pool. ☀️👙📚 Starting this gem today! #DearMrM - Any litsy friends read this one yet? Thoughts? #HermanKoch #AuthorofTheDinner

Jess7 Litsy friends: I bailed on this one. I loved The Dinner but this one just wasn't as good. I don't mind flawed main characters but this one just annoyed me. So much complaining in the first few chapters and I was confused. Maybe I'll try it again another time but I just couldn't get through it at the pool 7y
