This was alright. I liked the first half better. The tone shift from wacky to serious was a bit too harsh for me.

And we are back on to Audible because I miss my book's.

Didn't like this. 1st third is a jumbled mess of backstory & setting up a plot that isn't particularly unique/original. The rest is just tedious & unbelievable. Don't buy Gen & her "fame", the toxic husband is so awful he's almost comical & I never felt the 2 MCs liked each other much or displayed any convincing affection beyond teenage variety lust, let alone being the loves of each other's lives! Neither interesting nor entertaining.

I read 115 Canadian books in 2025. These are my faves:

My favorite book of November was The Lilac People (although this would tie for Jeff Hiller‘s book Actress of a Certain Age). I always feel like I‘m over the countless WWII stories. Then you find one that discusses a piece of history I knew nothing about. This fictional story portrays the life of a transgender couple before & after WWII living in Germany. The story is loosely based on real accounts. #12Booksof2025

My 2nd book off my #AuldLangSpine list and my first 5 🌟 of 2026. Every time I think I‘m done with WWII history another book comes along with a missing piece in my knowledge and understanding.
For those participating in #BookedinTime this would be a great read for June‘s prompt LGBT History Berlin 1930‘s
