I think I can see where this is going & it’s equal parts super-engrossing and dread-filled

I love that the central conflict between the MC & her beloved is their wildly divergent decision-making styles. A J & a P have a lot of genuinely thorny challenges ahead of them!

Sophie Brookover is 60% done with Catch and Kill: Lies, Spies, and a Conspiracy to Protect Predators
This is fascinating & so well reported that I am choosing to regard Ronan’s bad accent work as endearing. (His various American accents are fine; the non-American accents are...bad, but gamely so.)

Sophie Brookover is 50% done with Nice Try: Stories of Best Intentions and Mixed Results
I took a break listening to this reflective & funny collection to listen to Say Nothing, & am now holding it in reserve as a periodic palate cleanser while I listen to Catch & Kill. Thanks for helping me not feel like everything is garbage, Josh!

Rereading in advance of the HBO series. It’s been at least 15 years since I first & last read it & guess what? It’s still a banger!

This book does so many things so well: the depiction of friendships, illuminating a young artist’s growth in her work & as a person, depicting every character with compassion & justified criticism. I’m going to miss Jade!

“I keep telling you that often the search proves more profitable than the goal.” I think I’ve identified the moment I became a librarian

I’m rereading a bunch of Konigsburg this summer, starting with the GOAT. Just ten elegantly structured, witty, perfectly detailed chapters! I’m rereading this as an audiobook & the narrator-to-text match is just right. Jill Clayburgh was born to read this book!

You know you love a book when you keep saying “I’ll just read another five pages & then do [insert bougie responsibility here]” but then you look up & realize it’s 25 pages later whoopsidaisies!!!

if I had KNOWN I was going to be reading a love interest who I picture as Skeet Ulrich crossed with John Dickerson I would have filed for short-term disability benefits on the basis of my assassinated feelings & decimated hormones

Proooobably this book is already on your radar, thanks to some excellent publicity. I am here to confirm that it’s a total delight. Not surprising! Holmes’ way with dialogue & establishing the characters in their settings is even better than I’d hoped, and I am rooting so hard for Evvie & Dean already that I’ve set aside some Kleenex for the inevitable tears of frustration & later, joy.
