Who am I and what have I done with Alex, who doesn’t care for self-help books in the least?

Does CJ Box normally establish his characters, regardless of gender, as viewing women as cliche and sexist stereotypes??

I chocked it up to character after the first dozen passes, but then it seemed every character despises or doesn’t respect women.

Ew. DNF @ 28%

Full transparency I thought this was a completely different author than it is but here I am

DNF @ 33%

Overwritten

I am shocked this is the same author as Seven Husbands and Daisy Jones, etc., because……. 😬

I am trying so hard to care about this story.

The first book Kylie Clark EVER recommended to me 🥲

I am…determined to power through.

Meryl Streep narrating is the greatest thing since sliced bread, no contest.

I know, I know, Alex is reading a romance novel; sound the alarm.

Give me Malcolm Gladwell or give me death.

4% in and I’m 🥰already depressed🥰

Just over halfway through but this is easily one of the most emotionally difficult (but incredibly educational) books I’ve ever read.

Difficult to stomach.

Disgusted with myself that it’s been a year and a half since I last read this trilogy.

Am I supposed to be laughing this much? I have no idea what I’m supposed to take away from this literary classic, but the main character is hysterical.

Seems appropriate to read for National Banned Books Week 😌

I have not laughed this hard at a book in a long while. The VOICE in this writing 👏👏

Already feels like a favorite-book-of-the-year for me.

I’m appalled at myself for reading a Christmas book when it’s not even Halloween but I promise I have my reasons.

Because I am now Paul Rudnick’s biggest fan.

Had to DNF at 42%. Not in the right head space for murder mystery right now :(

How am I not even halfway through this book? Feels like I’ve been reading it for decades.

Saw the movie poster and got a hankering to reread

Reading it again fight me
