something something about the kindness of strangers saving us if we’re open to it….

Hard to put down! It’s really fun having the characters be authors, so their descriptions become a little meta

My guy fell for the same trick twice

Carl would have had this figured out in like, a day and a half

The audiobook narrator’s accent really makes it hard to keep my thoughts focused on the story and not just fascinated with the voice, and for awhile I thought he was referring to the golds as “gulls”… very enjoyable so far but probably missing some lore here and there. Whatever I’ve missed is none of my business though 💅

I’m having a hard time putting this one down!

“Jamal has so many sorries to give, and Jamal is giving you all of them” might be my fav line of dialogue

I think this is a really great book club pick for discussion

Unsure now about seeing the movie

still dark! I think All The Sinners Bleed is also dark, but it is from the perspective of a sheriff coming across a crime after the fact, compared to this book where you are reading the main character actively getting his teeth knocked out

dark!

Read this for no other reason other than hearing this guy dunk on racists

Another great audiobook narrator!

So far, it’s a buy. Nails the voice of a 20yr old

I’m sorry, but if you’re a doctor with multiple popular murder mystery books, how do you have murderers who don’t know that hot water sets stains? Or a doctor who willingly handles someone else’s blood without gloves?
Also, I want to shake the main character and give her a basic course on feminism.

I have a new goal to read more of this genre, so I can recommend other books to people reading this. If I am taking a page out of Jesse’s book, the phrase “hot garbage” comes to mind

These later books have been taking me a second to ease into the premise (they are not slow or boring—just adjusting from the immersion of the previous book), but once I’m in I don’t want to do anything but keep reading

I don’t know about this one, big dog

palimpsest: writing material (such as a parchment or tablet) used one or more times after earlier writing has been erased, or; something having usually diverse layers or aspects apparent beneath the surface

Interesting to see the differences in the movie so far—they are about to start the tour now 🧐

Having 7 hours left is crazy. It’s like when everything is resolved in an episode but there is still 30 minutes left… what is coming for these poor people

Having to live through 1700s France as an immortal woman does sound terrible

I LOVE schwab’s writing. Thank you book club for introducing me to this author 👌

their mind…
