I just swiped past a lot of a sex scene. It was okay, but the scene went on and on and I got bored. I've enjoyed the secondary characters so far, the other teams of competitors, and can imagine 2 of those teams getting their own romances.

I was just starting Side B, when the library reclaimed the audiobook. Some stories stick with me the rock rolling downhill and Shong fixing things. The love, and care that Shong had for his family. The bald rooster. The daughters and health situation at work.

I am getting tired on Vanessa's family. Why did she go to El Paso? Why did she stay so long with her toxic family? Why doesn't Aidan acknowledge other people?

At part 9 of 16, my favorite parts are her interactions with friend Diana or roommate Zack. I feel that at least a quarter of this could have been trimmed without any harm to the story.

Oddities: she didn't have to pay her last month's rent? Glasses legs?

So far I have learned about hormones, food, and the anatomy of menopause. I am reassured about soy. There are points while I am reading this that I want to share it with several people I know. I regret nor reading The Vagina Bible, and may get copies of that book for my nieces. There is so much I am learning now that I wish I had known 10 years ago.

God inhabits G and the work he does. Well, God inhabits all of us, if we could only see it.

Scott spends time in the summer in Italy , where they don't know hockey. That would be a surprise to the men, women, and youth on national teams and in leagues. Kip's father suggests that Kip could work for the Admirals. Kip scoffs at the idea of being a historian for a professional hockey club.

I don't know if the positions are paid or volunteer, but at least 2 baseball and one football team have team historians

Caroline takes such good care of her son Dylan and is wary of Justin. In one scene Justin takes them out to dinner. He tells Dylan that women should be treated like princesses and that men should pay for women.

I thought the person who issued the invitation does the paying. Maybe Caroline should be treated like a princess sometimes, but she has been capable for years of taking care of herself and her son.

Second year was a slog. Rodney was so abusive. I kept reading because this is for a challenge and I don't want to find another book. Now I am after graduation and the book is easier for me to read.

I am having a hard time with the audio. One of the characters is from Rhode Island, the other is from Barnstable, Massachusetts. I can't tell where the accents are from, but not from RI or MA. When I heard Barnstable pronounced Barn-stable rather than Bahn'-sta-ble, I wanted to find a pronunciation guide to send to the narrator.

I have heard fine RI accents on YouTube videos about window treatments.

I'm glad the drawings come through on my Kindle paperwhite!

I am used to a faster pace. For some reason this feels slow.

Heritage, mix of African origins in people of the South, religion ... topics are wide-ranging and tied together. The copy I am reading is overdue at the library, so I have to put it down for a while

So far DNF.

I am reading this because Jeff Adams recommended it as one of his best of 2017. This doesn't disappoint. I have to tear myself away to sleep, to do housework, to buy groceries.

I'm not sure I'll be able to finish this.

I have been sucked in by the story. So far, Becky has disappeared, Lorraine has found another lesbian in their town. And I hate to put the ebook down.

The characters so far are delightful. Kitty, Chef, Mario Lemew, and the main characters Baller and Banksy.
