I’m struggling with this one

USWNT 99ERS MENTIONED ‼️‼️‼️ Brandi Chastain the penalty shooter that you are

It’s time for a Tom Lake relisten I think…

It has suddenly started to feel like the author has a badly concealed housewife/subservience fetish. Hrmmmm.

I might have lost this book? Haven’t had the chance to look around for it yet though, tbd

Genuinely think I am not smart enough for this book

Listened to the vast majority of this in the Trader Joe’s freezer while stocking milk

On a Neil Gaiman kick tbh

Much better pacing and more interesting plot than 100 Years of Solitude (for me) (so far)

Decided to read more LatAm authors while I’m in Colombia so this is first. I don’t love Vargas Llosa as a person but I’ve never read anything by him so I’m giving it a chance. The text is really dense already, which I’m struggling with.

Overall really enjoyable and definitely gripping, but why is it a plot point that this guy’s horse is teething on his leg? And who is this mysterious Italian chef who has a mysterious box of ingredients that he will legitimately kill someone over and insisted on bringing into the treacherous canyons of Utah???

Deb and I have realized that we cannot listen to this at night. We freaked out real bad in the middle of nowhere Mississippi.

Rereading Even Cowgirls Get the Blues for the third? Fourth? Time. Tom Robbins my best friend and fiercest enemy…

Found this at Powells and I’m quite enjoying it so far

I am reading this in English and need to read it in the next day and a half, as I fear it is a library book

Forgot to log this when I started in March, whoops

Really interesting so far! I haven’t read much international fiction, and the narrative reminds me of my score of old Jewish relatives. Shoutout to Penn, who insists that every contemporary Jew should read this and went out and BOUGHT ME A COPY to make sure at least one more of them will!

I keep forgetting to log books when I start them! Melissa loaned this to me like 3 years ago and I want to actually read it before I return it.

In the best way possible, this book has already made me cry a few times

My grandmother from Alabama LOVES this book. It's fun so far!

The library had it on display so I finally caved

I really enjoyed this. Codjoe’s poetry is phenomenal.

Spotify 15 hour/month audiobook limit my beloathed… I only have two chapters left

Reading this for my Modern Poetry course and Codjoe is by far my favorite poet we’ve been assigned. Her prose is rich and unique and gripping, I’m excited to see her reading at LC.

I don’t think I’ll finish this book. I could not get into it and after I put it down in June, I haven’t given it a second thought.

Deb and I only made like a 30 page dent this trip lol. Will continue to read over FaceTime but I’m guessing this won’t be done until May at best.

Meryl Streep audiobook narration 🫡

Definitely reads like a gossip mag but it’s interesting!

I’m gonna be honest, I’ve sent most of my free time lately watching YouTube documentaries on 8000 meter mountains instead of reading.

Talking about high altitude physiology in class means reading Into Thin Air once again 🤩
