Sharp Objects: A Novel | Gillian Flynn
Mehso-so

I didn't hate this book, but I didn't really like it either. Maybe I'm a lightweight, but the characters in this book are so vile and evil it's hard to read at times. The ending fell a bit flat for me, and to be honest I'm not sure how I feel about this book. Having now finished reading all of Flynn's books, Gone Girl is without question the best for me. 2.5/5.0 ⭐️

Egg and Spoon | Gregory Maguire

A uniquely written book that features odd, quirky, and enjoyable characters. It did take me a little while to get into the story, and I found the ending to be a bit slow, but overall I really enjoyed this book. Also, Baba Yaga is the best!

Perhaps more good is done in the name of muddling through uncertainty than is done hacking away with the righteous sword of self-confidence.

A new book haul, courtesy of Target and library book sale! Gonna pick up Egg & Spoon first, after coming off of Gillian Flynn's: Dark Places, I'm desperate for a more light hearted read. 😬

What better way to spend a power outage, than settling down with a book?

There Will Be Lies | Nick Lake

Just gotta say it...I'm not digging the authors decision to have no quotation marks in the book. It's super confusing, and I find myself having to go back and re-read sentences/paragraphs to make sense of what is dialogue or the protagonists narration.

Do you ever read a sentence that is just so good you have to set the book down for a few seconds? 😭 I'm starting to lose count of how many times I've had to do this! #AllTheChills

#RoadTripReads book number one: All the Light We Cannot See. I'm so excited to read this! Have heard nothing but good things about this novel.

MrBook Always have a problem on road trips: I want to read, but I also like watching the scenery. *sighs* 8y
Pixielux I know! This book is so good that sometimes I have to remind myself to put it down and look at the scenery! 8y
