“She had picked up, somewhere—maybe in that one-day class on ASL—that the very best lip-readers could only understand about 70 percent of what they saw, and the majority of deaf fell far short of that.”
The audiobook narrator said ALS 🤦‍♂️

I keep saying I’m not going to read more of her books because I don’t love them but they are so accessible. Always available at the library

This is the kind of book that symbolizes why I love reading. It’s an interest that yes people watch in theaters etc but otherwise it’s so niche. Reading allows you to escape to any world. 📚
I’m only barely cracking it open and already I’m able to see it continue from the Michael Keaton version and seeing all the connections of how it’s tied back to the first movie and John Jackson Miller’s first book.

Two things
I’m understanding of the need for a job but if being an employee of someone this crazy, is obviously not sustainable especially if the crazy starts to show so early.
Secondly, Amanda Seyfried is playing Nina? She’s supposed to be heavier. Fifty pounds heavier than her wedding photo. A size 14. Physical details always throw me as a reader ➡️ movie buff.

I was really enjoying the details in this book and the writing style of this author but man, do I hate an unreliable narrator.

I absolutely love the story because it helps me reflect, but I do have problems with it. I think they’re big problems actually because I would’ve valued at her life was more average and realistic. This seems so outrageous that she is an Olympic athlete biologist in the Arctic. I wanna know something simple. I wanna know what happens if you did X instead of why not if MJ pursued his baseball career instead of nba

I’m enjoying this book and especially the guy who reads half of the story, but he is messing up words and it’s driving me bananas! Are these recordings not proofed? A word like manic being read like maniac etc.
It is still a good read but man, does it throw me!

So far, this is not my favorite villain story but it has potential. I’m open minded.

Chapter 1: I’m a man in purgatory blind to the sins that chased me here.

Okay I’m only on chapter 7 but I’m here to say that the hype around this is real. I’ve got clear images in my mind of the story due to the elaborate descriptions, I’m enjoying the characters, and I’m laughing at every turn. Worth picking up. It’s early, I know. But so far so good!

At the Io chapter. Love how explanations of different creatures come through classic myths. This piece tells of the peacock

I’m really not enjoying this book. I’m a third through it and I think I have to put it down. Maybe temporarily but maybe forever. There is so much out there that I want to get my hands on and this just is not what I’m looking for. I’ve invested a bunch of time into it but to know I’m only a third of the way and not enjoying it at all, stinks.

I think it’s interesting that Andy uses the same line from The Menu of “I love you, Chef” before everything goes down

This is an interesting story so far. I feel like the start was a little rushed and the piece about Michelle dragged but overall, enjoying it so far.

Side note: It’s a definite pet peeve when authors switch subconscious and unconscious

I’m really enjoying this and the audiobook is good too. There have been three or four mispronunciations that are driving me nuts! She just said nock-ia instead of no-Kia and that’s the one that drove me over the edge!

I love a good Thailand backpacker story!

This book is written by Danny Tamberelli and his wife. Mara Wilson narrates it!

OoOoOoOoOo! This whole book has been a fun read but I love the little epiphany that Lawrence and Steve came to just now!

Well, I’m loving this.
