Tavie is 30% done with Reading Lolita in Tehran: A Memoir in Books
Abandoning at 30%. Too repetitive.

Myself as Witness

Tavie is 20% done with Zone One
Cannot get into this. Pretty prose and boring story. Abandoned at 20% after a month.

Zone One

Tavie is 53% done with Seven Days of Us
I thought this would be fun to read as it’s about a family quarantining together during Christmas, but “Seven Days of Us” is taking way more than seven days to get through. :/

Tavie is 51% done with I, Claudius (Claudius, #1)
Throwing in the towel on old Claudius halfway through. I just don’t have the attention span for all of these wars with the Germans and missing eagles and intermarrying family members.

Tavie is 30% done with The Idiot
This is a slog. Abandoning.

Tavie is starting Crazy Rich Asians (Crazy Rich Asians, #1)
Not sure about this one. The writing seems very on the level of a Sweet Valley High. Does it get better?

Tavie is starting The Kitchen God's Wife
Found myself picking up this old favorite for the first time in decades and falling back into it. I can’t seem to put it down. Strange to read it as an adult and remember so many turns of phrase, textures and tastes and descriptions, after all these years.

Tavie is starting The Left Hand of Darkness
I'm about halfway through now and it's pretty good but it seems to be a lot more about politics than gender, to my disappointment?
