pickI started reading this back in January. Somehow, it got away from me, but I've finally finished it. This book is wild from start to finish. I couldn't tell if it was funny or horrifying, probably a little bit of both. I got secondhand embarrassment for the main character many times throughout this book. She really knew how to get herself in crazy situations. But, there were also some touching moments mixed in with all the hilarious moments.
pickI wanted to like this book more than I eventually did, but overall still enjoyed it. Listened to the audiobook through my Spotify subscription. Being inside the mind of a sad, self-pitying 35 year old struggling comedian, who is reeling from a recent breakup, for 10 hours was frustrating at times. Probably what I appreciated most was the accurate depiction of mid-30s millennial life, when everyone around you is getting married and having babies.
pickMy birthday book 🎂 finished Today , will be passing this one on. Bridget Jones vibes , loved Nell the main character, funny , refreshing and perfectly predictable in the right places 💕 . Put a big smile on my face . Just what you need at the end of the day when life is a bit hectic 😁
Reminds me Bridget Jones 4 out next February 🙌 🥂
so-soIt was different, and I enjoyed reading it but pretty predictable
pickGood Material is about a break-up. Except for the last chapter, it‘s from Andy‘s perspective. He‘s a struggling stand-up comedian in his mid-30‘s who‘s just been dumped. It‘s got real High Fidelity vibes. The last chapter grants the reader access into Jen‘s mind. I‘d never read Dolly Alderton before & almost *immediately* became a devotee. Her writing feels so natural. The way her characters think, OVERthink, speak & act is modern & true-to-life.
pickBook #1 in the Stage Dive series. I have already read 2 and 3. Enjoyed it and now that I have read, wonder what took me so long to get to it since I had read others in the series. While I in no way think it depicts rock star life, it is fiction after all, I liked the characters and was invested from the very beginning. Now I want to finish this series.

Book 3 of #AwesomeApril readathon.
I figured I should probably read some of the books I have on my kindle so here we are!
HD Carlton is messing with my brain once again but I decorated my kindle case so ig it‘s ok 😂
pickI‘ve been meaning to read this one forever…glad I finally got to it! Loved it, but I‘ve been all about hockey romances lately. This one did deal with some strong issues - TW for rape, abuse.
