At the actual challenge part and am bored already. Not sure if I’ll finish before it gets returned to the library

Enough with the yelp jokes. Starting to cringe every time yelp is mentioned.

Like the reference to sulking in the bath listening to the moulin rouge soundtrack

I’m already glued to it. Well written and can relate to her descriptions of grief and books and even the painting watercolors (sort of). But what is with the odd not-so-common names? I guess that is the younger generation and maybe it’s okay that they aren’t, it stands out and is that such a bad thing?

The whole multiverse thing and multiple Cal’s- seriously? Insert eye roll here. Hopefully not just stealing plot lines from marvel movies and series.

April McMillian is 35% done with Get Out of Your Head: Stopping the Spiral of Toxic Thoughts
Still liking it, been good to listen to in the morning and/or evening when my mental struggles are bad. I might consider adding this to the audible library if the price was right.

Get Out of Your Head: Stopping the Spiral of Toxic Thoughts

April McMillian is 75% done with The Life Impossible
I like or resonate with the discussions of grief, depression and loneliness. The transition though to where they all mostly disappear though, don’t quite like that. Where’s the process? Plot is also a little “out there” and could be refined or developed a bit more. I dunno, I like it overall though.

Lots of references to scripture. But I think this might be one for the list of comfort books, or books for when I need some comforting words to calm down or even fall asleep without spiraling into anxiety. Via Libby 7/2025.

It’s kinda boring right now. I may set it aside. Or try increasing the narration speed, maybe that will help. A little cringy at times too. But not ready to give up on it yet.

Improved over the second half. I’d continue the series if it was free or only a couple of dollars. Maybe the dramatic adaptation is better, but then again the monotone was probably on purpose just to imply how murderbot didn’t care much about anything

I like that the stories are super short - like 10 minutes short. Perfect for a quick game and distraction break.

Little confusing, on the monotone dull side but could have potential

I couldn’t really tell you what this is about. Nothing sticks in my mind. Started then stopped. Had borrowed via Libby.
