so-soAnother odd #nbalonglist (translated) choice. In costal Uruguay, fish suddenly started dying, birds left the sky, and people got sick. In this strange dystopian world, a woman is paid to care for a child with a syndrome that causes extreme eating while keeping tabs on her mom and hospitalized ex-husband. Honestly, I didn‘t get this at all until about halfway through. The pieces came together a bit but not a very enjoyable reading experience.
mdemanatee Oh no, I was planning on diving into this one next but I‘ll go in expecting an experience like Schweblin‘s Fever Dream where years later I am still like 🤷♀️ 2mo
BarbaraBB This sounds so weird. A bit too much so perhaps 2mo
Megabooks @mdemanatee it did not really remind me of that book. I‘m curious what more people will think since it did make the long! 2mo

Megabooks @BarbaraBB and she didn‘t explain major plot points/background until halfway or more through. Just really strange not in a good way. 🤷🏻♀️ 2mo
Suet624 When I saw your tag of nbalonglist I was so surprised that the National Basketball Association had a book club. (edited) 2mo
Megabooks @Suet624 no, no, it‘s a list of books preferred by their tallest players! The book stack must be at least 6‘6” to honor the league‘s average height. 2mo
Suet624 😂😂 Darn! I just finished Brittany Griner‘s book. She never mentioned it! 2mo
Megabooks @Suet624 patriarchy. The players didn‘t see fit to include a female athlete‘s story. Plus, I‘ve heard a few are colluding with Putin. 🤫 2mo
