HEY BOOK FRIENDS! I am leaving Goodreads and going to Storygraph! I own a bookstore, so I don't feel like I can uh, stay here giving Jeffy B. my book thoughts and hopes and dreams. PLEASE come find me over there! I am "abbywdan" and my data is uploading today!

I’m rereading Middlesex for a local book club, and goodreads DOES NOT ALLOW for rereads, so I’m putting this here as a placeholder.

Finally managed to semi-sync my personal and professional book clubs ! Wish me luck.

Timely!

I haven’t read a book written by a man in 18 months. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Hey, so I don't recommend reading the part where Lenu has her baby and subsequently falls apart in a city very far away from her family when you are 7mo pregnant and anxiety-awake at 4am.

Eileen is giving me Swamplandia!-itis. Which is to say, it is making me feel sour and miserable.

I'm the last person on earth to read this! Hooray!

SO WHAT IF I AM?

So far, very purple.

Reading this book feels like being locked in a tiny room with a sociopath who WON'T SHUT UP. I'm pretty sure that's the point, and Nutting is good at it.

Eh. I am not a mystery reader. So I am finding this a little tedious but likable.

Playing Candy Crush is more fun than reading this book. Progress has stalled.

No seriously, still reading this.

Seriously, this is taking forever.

I have put this off for too long.
