After reading Heart is a Lonely Hunter years ago I wasn't expecting much out of Wedding. But the frustrated thoughts and feelings of 12 yr old Frankie felt very real. A classic who's theme of being an outsider is still very relevant
3/4 the way through this amazingness! Must. Read. Faster.
All I can say is if you haven't read this book you are missing out. Funny & informative. I feel I can now liven up any party. Bonus points for the vocal stylings of Shelly Frasier on the audio book. She is a perfect fit.
Why, oh why did I wait so long to discover to hilarity of Mary Roach? If she can make dead bodies this funny I can't wait to read Bonk 🙊
I don't think I'm cut out for mysteries. I spend so much time on the plausibility of the plot that I just don't enjoy the book for what it is 🕵 No Colonel Mustard, and let me tell you why...
I haven't gotten much reading done this vacation, but did visit the second largest library in the U.S. today 💁 Go Boston Public! I think this is my new Bucket List, 'Famous Libraries of America'
Single-serving Wheat Thins & and a single-serving book. They should go great w/ my new single-serving friends. It's always a good time for a Fight Club reference 😝👊
🌟🌟🌟🌟 4 out of 5 stars. Darkly funny, yet light and quirky. Quick read make me giggle. 🐀
Silly monkeys get me every time. Bananas all around! 🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌
Had to bail on the audiobook. I just could not get past the voice of the girl. It sounded like her nose was broken. Maybe I will try reading the rest. The story was interesting enough. Much the same device as The Good Girl
This book was very heartfelt and touching. Until the end...You know the feeling like the author just got bored w/ the story? Happy to say I have enjoyed her other books much more. This one, not so much 😒
I thought this book was beautifully written. I wasn't sold on it from the description, but the action pales in comparison to the feelings it produces. The human interaction that occurs is lovely.
